Default Vit. E supplement inflammatory?

I've done a little research to discover what is in supplements that I am taking. I really want to get my nutrients from food but not being a food scientist it is difficult and it seems food doesn't provide enough. How SAD is THAT!!!

I think safflower oil is what my vit. E is derived from. Safflower oil is full of omega 6's which I want to avoid but I want vit. E at 400 IU's.

I'm seeking health through diet and supplements and am exploring www.healingbybee.com but she wants me on her full program before she believes I'll see any healing. The vit. E is part of her program as well as vit. C (gmo, non organic corn derived), fish oil, nutritional yeast (for B's), and sea salt.

She also wants us to take 4 g. of vit. C but I struggle with it being synthetic so I'm taking acerola cherry powder at a quarter of her suggestion. Maybe her program isn't for me but she offer's hope and tells her "people" that on her program it takes 1 month of healing for every year you are sick and she thinks we've all been sick since before we were born.

If someone has any thoughts on excellent vit. E or vit. C sources I will be most grateful. And any comments on her program would be great if you have time to explore it. If not no worries.

regarding vitamin c I suggest that you spend a little time on www.vitamincfoundation.org

there is nothing wrong with having some omega 6. Its not over doing it that is the issue and keeping it in balance with omega 3.

I've never heard of vitamin E being inflammatory, currently I'm using Carlson 'E-Gems' 400IU (as d-alpha tocopheryl acetate from soy). They are natural color, corn-free, milk-free, salt-free, gluten-free, sugar-free, yeast and preservative-free. Other ingredients are sunflower oil, beef gelatin, glycerin and water.

Here's some info on vitamin E and food sources, special attention to the link at the bottom, 'vitamin E updates'.

Almonds are really high in vitamin E. I've seen this on the list of top 10 foods multiple times. I eat two handfuls a day, once between breakfast and lunch and another between lunch and dinner.

I eat almonds for all the health benefits and they just happen to be loaded in vitamin E.

For vitamin C I take supplements and I started to take a multivitamin that you take 3 times a day that I only take once a day that adds to the vitamin E intake, but I get most of my vitamin E through food sources.

here's a list of top 10 foods with vitamin C and has you can see oranges aren't on there
