Il tocoferolo è un nutriente vitaminico essenziale e vitale per l'uomo, un potente antiossidante liposolubile, presente in molti vegetali, ad esempio nella frutta, nell'olio di canapa, nell'olio d'oliva e soprattutto nell'olio di germe di grano. Il tocoferolo è uno dei principali composti detti vitamina E, e per questo ne viene comunemente usato interscambiabilmente il nome.
