To do this Trail, Watson, and their colleague, postdoctoral researcher Nicholas Tailby, recreated the formation of zircons in the laboratory at
different oxidation levels.
Human studies have generally used alpha - tocopherol, a form of vitamin E, to protect against the
oxidation of fish oils within the body, but supplements of pure alpha - tocopherol suppress
levels of gamma - tocopherol, a
different form of vitamin E with a unique spectrum of antioxidant protection.
