Previous GA

• More coverage on other countries.

YProvided

• 'Function' section. Rationale: Anti-oxidant is buried while specific functions are spread out

Current GA

MoS compliance

Lead sections

• Vitamin E is classified as an essential nutrient for humans... The first sentence should define what Vitamin E is and following that would be the sentence that determine its significance to humans (since Vitamin E is a human nutrient is pretty common knowledge)

(ex: Vitamin E is a group of eight molecular-structure related compounds that include four tocopherols and four tocotrienols. It functions as a fat-soluble antioxidant which may help protect cell membranes from reactive oxygen species, and is classified as an essential nutrients for humans... ).

• Declining use was theorized to be due to publications of meta-analyses that showed either no benefits or actual negative consequences from high-dose vitamin E.[8][9][10][11][12], :Try to specify which paper mentions no benefits to vitamin E and which mentions negative consequences. These two statements are pretty substantial so inline citation is a must.

Layout

• The sections Serum content definitions of deficiency and Vaping-associated lung injury seems out of place and should be incorporated as follows: Serum content definitions of deficiency to Deficiency and Vaping-associated lung injury to Medical applications

Words to watch

No words of concern

List incorporation

Appropriate use of lists

Citations

• for For comparison, vitamin C remained constant and vitamin D increased by 454%. If addressed by source [60] nearby than you may delete this.
• Add citations for the image showing synthesis of vitamin E as there are many ways a compound can be synthesized

Sources

• Remove: Worldwide, consumption is below recommendations according to a summary of more than one hundred studies that reported a median dietary intake of 6.2 mg per day for alpha-tocopherol.[4]. Already mentioned in "Dietary Rec." Also remove Palm oil is a source of tocotrienols.[17] as it seems out of place. Should incorporate into the table for amount of tocotrienols. Unless very few natural sources contain tocotrienols. Instead discuss if tocotrienols play a role in diet.

Medical applications

• Expand Age-related macular degeneration section by following other section's style of writing.

@David notMD:More feedbacks coming soon. Also ping me if this is addressed.
