Plasma vitamin E and cholesterol relationship in Western Canadian Indians

I. D. Desai Ph.D.1 and Melvin Lee Ph.D.1

1 From the Division of Human Nutrition, School of Home Economics, The University of British Columbia, Vancouver, B.C., Canada

Plasma vitamin E, cholesterol, vitamin A, and beta-carotene were determined for five groups of Indians (911 persons) from British Columbia and the Yukon Territory. The best correlation for plasma vitamin E was found to be with plasma cholesterol and age. It is suggested that the relationship between cholesterol and vitamin E reflects their close association with the plasma beta-lipoprotein fraction, which may be the determining factor in the regulation of circulating levels of vitamin E and cholesterol.
