This **Vitamin E** delivers 1,000 IU (670mg) of natural d-alpha-tocopherol per two-softgel serving — well above the 100–400 IU range where antioxidant and circulatory benefits actually show up in research. The natural d-alpha form is the well-absorbed one, so you're getting quality, just far more than the studied effective dose.
The real issue is the dose. Large meta-analyses link vitamin E at or above 400 IU per day to higher all-cause mortality and a greater risk of hemorrhagic (bleeding) stroke, and it can add to the effect of blood thinners. At 1,000 IU you're roughly 2.5x past the top of the beneficial range, into the territory those studies flag.
It's also alpha-only, with no mixed tocopherols or tocotrienols for broader antioxidant coverage. For most people, a 100–400 IU mixed-tocopherol product lines up better with both the evidence and the safety data.
