I don't take vitamin E at the moment but am considering it as nuts are high-calorie and the other sources also tend to have vitamin k. Or I guess I could get some wheat germ and become a granola cruncher for real :)

(And coumadin, the reason for the k concern.) Dana On Sat, 22 Jan 2005 11:19:36 -0500, Michael T.
