David is right about the DL form of Vitamin E.
Tocopherol ( one of the technical names for vitamin E) comes in both right handed (dextro rotary) and left handed (levo rotary) versions called isomers. We humans do not have receptor sites for left handed (L) vitamin E. When vitamin E is synthesized rather than grown as a food, the left and right isomers appear in about the same concentrations, which is why it is called dl-(alpha) tocopherol. The problem is you are only going to absorb 1/2 the amount stated on the label, you can't absorb the levo rotary isomers.
D-Alpha Tocopherol ( or sometimes Tocopheryl) is the best absorbed version.
By the way, you can enhance the value of d alpha tocopherol vitamin e by taking the gamma version (gamma instead of alpha tocopherol) with it, which will mimic the way vitamin e appears on nature.

It depends on the source of the Vitamin E.
If it is a chemically synthesized Vitamin E copy called DL-Alpha-Tocopherol, it may provide none of the health benefits listed.
If it is a plant-extracted Vitamin E (usually referred to as mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols), it will.
So always make sure your supplements are "concentrated foods." In other words, they need to be made from natural food sources in order to be "bio-available" and therefor work in the body.
