I might be. I know I'm sensitive to anything that is estrogen enhancing. Like soy. That's why vitamin e breaks me out because some Tocotrienols are from soy. Soy being one of the top 8 allergens. I know alot of almonds also break me out. A little bit toasted in a recipe doesn't seem to. However, if I bake something I usually have a piece or two then send it with my husband to work for his shift to eat. 🤭 SAVES ME TONS OF CALORIES WHEN THEY EAT IT! 😜

You could try red palm oil. It has one of the highest natural concentrations of tocotrienols. Vitamin E keeps fats from going rancid, so every seed on the planet will have some vitamin e to protect the oils within. It performs the same function in your body. I think soy is used because it's cheap and plentiful, but it's definitely not the only source of vitamin e. Take care and good health to you!
