Miller and colleagues re-analyzed 19 studies of vitamin E and health between
1993 and 2004. The trials involved more than 136,000 mostly elderly patients
in North America, Europe and China.

People who took 200 international units of vitamin E a day or more died at a
higher rate during the study, which lasted three years, than people who did
not take supplements, they told a meeting of the American Heart Association.

"It's about a 5 percent increased risk at 45 years in the trials pooled
together," Miller said.

"That doesn't sound like a lot but if you apply it to 25 percent of the
(U.S.) adult population taking vitamin E, that is significant."
