Vitamin E's complex effects on colds
The effect of vitamin E on common cold incidence is modified by age, smoking and residential neighborhood.
Caution warranted in public health
We examined how vitamin E affects common cold incidence among different groups. In our study involving over 14,500 participants, we found that older smokers living in cities benefited from vitamin E, showing a 46% reduction in cold risk.
In contrast, those who smoked more and lived in rural areas faced a higher cold risk with vitamin E intake. This suggests that vitamin E's impact can vary greatly based on age, smoking habits, and where one lives, indicating the need for cautious public health guidelines regarding vitamin E supplementation.

Vitamin E shows potential for colds
Vitamin E and respiratory tract infections in elderly nursing home residents: a randomized controlled trial.
Relevance score indicates some benefit
We aimed to find out if a daily dose of 200 IU of vitamin E could help reduce respiratory tract infections in elderly nursing home residents over a year.
Conducted at 33 care facilities, our study involved 617 participants aged 65 and older, with 451 completing it.
While vitamin E supplementation didn’t significantly reduce lower respiratory infections, we did notice it offered some protection against upper respiratory infections, especially the common cold, suggesting this area is worth exploring further.

No significant cold incidence reduction
Vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta-carotene in relation to common cold incidence in male smokers.
Low relevance due to findings
We explored the impact of vitamin E, along with vitamin C and beta-carotene, on the common cold in a large group of 21,796 male smokers. Over four years, we monitored cold episodes through regular surveys.
Unfortunately, our findings revealed no significant benefit of these vitamins on reducing cold incidence overall. However, for men aged 65 and older, a slight decrease in colds was noted among those taking vitamin E, particularly in those who smoked fewer than 15 cigarettes daily.

Eased cold symptoms
My blood circulation has long been poor, causing my toes to feel extremely cold in winter, even in a warm room. Since taking megavitamin, that issue has improved. I also realised a lack of vitamin E leads to redness and itchiness in my toes during winter. Thank you for this successful product!

Warm hands and feet
I started taking this as I was worried about having cold hands and feet. Now, my hands are warm all the time, my complexion has improved, and the dullness under my eyes has reduced. I couldn't sleep before due to cold extremities—this supplement is fabulous!

Eases common cold
I noticed my common cold symptoms were lighter after starting vitamin E. My son-in-law caught a cold, and when I gave him E-400, I was impressed by its effects.
