What it is

Mixed tocopherols are a form of vitamin E. They are naturally found in vegetable oils, nuts, and seeds. They are often manufactured by refining vegetable oils to concentrate the tocopherol compounds.

Why it's used

Mixed tocopherols are used as antioxidants to prevent fats and oils in foods from becoming rancid. This helps extend the shelf life of products. They are commonly found in baked goods, cereals, and snack foods.

Health notes

Mixed tocopherols are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food additive. They function as a source of vitamin E, an essential nutrient. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated mixed tocopherols. Evidence does not suggest adverse effects at typical dietary intake levels.

Allergen info

Mixed tocopherols are not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. They do not contain gluten.
