Interesting, but I'd still like to see some in vivo studies.

But not with cancer cells.

The telomerase lengthening in normal cells and shortening in cancer cells
appears to be attributed more to delta tocotrienols.

However, the bulk of the anticancer action of tocotrienols is attributed more
to gamma tocotrienols.

This Malaysian tocotrienol manufacturer has developed a delta-weighted product,
based on research emphasizing this moiety as having the highest potency of the four.
