The interest in vitamin-E stems from various studies that point to its role as an antioxidant that prevents the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and phospholipids thereby helping to maintain the integrity of cellular membranes.}, number={7}, journal={The Indian Journal of Nutrition and Dietetics}, author={Murthy, Nirmala K. and Shobana, S.}, year={1997}, month={Jul.}, pages={169–172} }
