Vitamin E and statin therapy shown to have benefits in certain diabetic patients

A potentially life-saving but inexpensive supplement for certain patients with diabetes has been revealed. Fewer cardiovascular events (heart attack, stroke and cardiovascular death) occurred in diabetes mellitus patients who tested positive for the genetic marker Hp2-2 when they were treated with statin therapy combined with vitamin E rather than just statin therapy alone. This was found in the Israel Cardiovascular events Reduction with Vitamin E (ICARE) study, published recently in Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology.
