What is the scientific name for vitamin E?
-
Thiamine
-
Tocopherol
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The correct answer is "Tocopherol". Tocopherol is the scientific name given to vitamin E, which is a group of fat-soluble compounds with antioxidant properties that protect the cell membrane from damage. It is an essential nutrient for humans and is found in many foods like nuts, seeds, and vegetable oils. Thiamine, on the other hand, is a B-vitamin that is necessary for carbohydrate metabolism. It is not related to vitamin E or tocopherol.
