Nutrition Congress 2015: Vitamin E isoforms regulate allergic disease - Joan Cook-Mills- North-western University School of Medicine

In this review, we discuss opposing regulatory functions of tocopherol isoforms of vitamin E and regulatory functions of vitamin D in asthma and the way the variation in global prevalence of asthma may be explained, at least in part, by these dietary components.
