when plasma γ-tocopherol concentrations had returned to baseline (Fig. 13.2).
Ingestion of 100 mg of RRR γ-tocopherol acetate did not alter the plasma α-tocopherol
concentration (Fig. 13.2).
Urinary metabolite responses. After γ-tocopherol supplementation, urinary d 2 γ-
CEHC increased markedly, rising to 2.24 ± 1.96 µmol/g creatinine on d 1 (Fig. 13.3).
As seen with the plasma γ-tocopherol response, d 2 γ-CEHC concentrations returned to
