Abstract

This narrative mini-review discusses vitamin E levels in subjects with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). Vitamin E may be reduced in subjects with DFUs, but this finding is inconsistent. Its administration appears to benefit patients with DM, delaying the onset of complications, including DFUs. There is also evidence that it may promote DFUs healing. Nonetheless, further studies are required to confirm these promising results and estimate vitamin E administration's costeffectiveness.
