Is vitamin E chewing, as recommended by an ENT specialist, the correct method of use?

The recommendation to chew a vitamin E capsule is a standard practice in ENT to achieve a local regenerating effect on the mucous membrane of the throat and mouth. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant, and its oily form, released directly in the mouth, creates a protective barrier that moisturizes the mucous membrane, soothes irritation and promotes the healing of micro-injuries. Although elastic capsules are usually swallowed whole for a systemic effect, in this particular case, the contact of the preparation with the throat tissues before swallowing it is crucial.

It is best to chew the capsule in the evening, after the last meal and drink, so that the substance can stay on the mucous membrane for as long as possible. Make sure you use pure vitamin E (e.g. in the form of tocopheryl acetate) without unnecessary flavours or colours that could further irritate your throat. You should strictly stick to the number of capsules prescribed by your doctor, as vitamin E accumulates in the body.
