Thanks for this link, Hanumant. I did not know that GNC vitamins were available in India - but this stuff is very expensive. Rs1600 for 90 capsules?
Actually, I have some doubts about Natvie, too - as they do not sell it as medicine - it is sold as "proprietary food" or a supplement - so, is not covered under FDA. So, they get away by just mentioning the mineral content, but not the source.
Evion 400 is Tocopheryl Acetate 400mg.
Cheers

So Evion is natural right? I too saw it's contents yesterday.
And regarding Vista, no, never came across that brand.

You are Welcome dear Poirot,
Gncindia's store are in Mumbai (49-A Inorbit Mall, Pune and Delhi)
On the cost , i do feel the same dilemma , but it should be taken like that the daily cost come to Rs 20 (approx) and can be used on alternate day.
It is less than Amway Nutrilite Natural Vitamin E Approx Rs 35
I have used GNC Natural E recently first time because Andy has suggested me GNC, and there was no another option.
But now, the link suggested by you seems very nice and ok. I haven't any doubt on goodlife.com, i will order next time and
there is no additional charges of courier so it is in less than half price per capsule equivalent to 400IU.
Above all you are 42 yrs old frm India, that is great. :))
I am also in touch with some senior members from India. So i also like to be in touch with you through phone etc. , If you permit
thanks and cheers

No dear it is Synthetic.
Merck has not disclosed it at all.
More you can't get natural E in that low price.
There is also discussion on FB for this by Andy

Hope that helps as a natural source.

If IP6 is found in wheat etc, then logically Wheat grass tablets, juice also contain it. So if our diet is powerfull , natural and avoiding junk food there is no woryy for IP6
