Background So far, clinical trials have found no link between vitamin E and the prevention of
cardiovascular events and cancer, despite experimental animal and epidemiologic data to
the contrary. The lack of evidence might be because of the relatively short length of trials.
Objectives To explore the link between long-term vitamin E use, and reduction in
cardiovascular events, cancer and cancer-related death.
