Lack of Vitamin E with other anti oxidants work in synergy will likely to cause the following sickness:- Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive disease of the retina wherein the light-sensing cells in the central area of vision (the macula) stop working and eventually die. It is a disease associated with aging that gradually destroys sharp, central vision. Central vision is needed for seeing objects clearly and for common daily tasks such as reading and driving. AMD affects the macula, the part of the eye that allows you to see fine detail. AMD causes no pain. Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of visual impairment and blindness in the United States and the developed world among people of 65 years of age and older. It has been shown that Vitamin E alone does not attentuate the development or progression of AMD. However, studies focusing on efficacy of Vitamin E combined with other antioxidants, like zinc and Vitamin C, indicate a protective effect against the onset and progression of AMD. Alzheimer's Disease Alzheimer's disease is a wasting disease of the brain. An observational trial conducted by The Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health found that when vitamin E is taken daily in large doses (400-1000IU) in combination with vitamin C (500-1000mg) the onset of Alzheimer's was reduced between 64 and 78%. Recent studies shown that Alzheimer's disease is no longer confined to elderly people but young ones as well from the age of 40 onwards and it is possible that with amount of free radicals around us most diseases will no longer be confined to elderly people. Parkinson Disease In May 2005, The Lancet Neurology published a study suggesting that vitamin E may help protect against Parkinson's disease. Individuals with moderate to high intakes of dietary vitamin E were found to have a lower risk of Parkinson's. Beta Carotene Carotenoids are a class of natural fat-soluble pigments found primarily in plants. Carotenoids are responsible for many of the red, orange, and yellow hues of plant leaves, fruits, and flowers. The most widely studied and well-understood nutritional role for carotenoids is their provitamin A activity because the body can convert them into retinol which is an active form of vitamin A. Deficiency of vitamin A is a major cause of premature death particularly among children. Carotenoids act as biological antioxidants, protecting cells and tissues from the damaging effects of free radicals and singlet oxygen. Carotenoids particularly beta-carotene, are also believed to enhance the function of the immune system. Researchers now believe that poor communication between cells may be one of the causes of the overgrowth of cells other than the activity of free radical, a condition which eventually leads to cancer. By promoting proper communication between cells, carotenoids may play a role in cancer prevention. Lack of carotenoids is found to be associated with chronic disease, including heart disease and various cancers. Buckwheat Buckwheat contains chiro-inositol which, in research, shows to be effective in lowering the symptoms of  type II Diabetes. According to a study conducted by John Hopkins Medical Institute, subjects who consumed the greatest amount of buckwheat had the lowest blood pressures. Buckwheat contains vitamin P, which contains the flavonoid rutin. Rutin is known for its effectiveness in reducing the cholesterol count in the blood. Rutin is also known to keep capillaries and arteries strong and flexible and so is beneficial for varicose vein problems which means that it can be helpful to maintain rigid blood vessels, and also can help people who bleed or bruise easily from damage.
