Mixed Tocopherols are a blend of different forms of vitamin E (alpha, beta, gamma, delta tocopherols) extracted from vegetable oils such as soybeans. They are widely used as natural antioxidants to protect oils and fat-containing foods from oxidative rancidity, while also serving as a dietary source of vitamin E.
Clean-label & Nutritional Note: Favored in natural and clean-label formulations, mixed tocopherols offer dual benefits—preserving freshness and adding nutritional value as vitamin E. They can protect fat-soluble vitamins and lipids during processing and storage.
Applications include edible oils, infant formulas, nutritional supplements, baked goods, snacks, pet food, and functional beverages.
Advantages: natural origin, dual antioxidant & nutritional function, suitable for clean-label products, and heat-resistant in many formulations.
Regulatory Information: Recognized as safe in many markets; complies with international food additive and supplement standards.
