The ATBC Study (Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention Study) demonstrated a link between vitamin E consumption and a decreased risk of heart disease in smokers. This study followed over 29,000 Finnish male smokers for several years and found that those who took vitamin E supplements had a significantly lower risk of developing heart disease than those who did not take supplements. The other studies listed did not specifically investigate the link between vitamin E consumption and heart disease risk in smokers.
