Abstract in brief

Palm oil is a major source of alphatocotrienol, a less understood form of vitamin E with unique biological functions beyond its antioxidant properties.
Alphatocotrienol shows neuroprotective effects in the brain, especially against damage caused by oxidative stress to polyunsaturated fatty acids like arachidonic acid, which are involved in neurodegenerative diseases such as stroke.
Despite its promising therapeutic potential, research on tocotrienols remains limited, making further studies necessary to fully understand and harness their benefits for brain health.]
