Morphology
The phrase is a straightforward, compositional naming of a specific vitamin: 'vitamin' (a nutrient) combined with the label 'E' denotes a particular type. This labeling pattern is cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will understand that 'vitamin E' refers to a specific vitamin, even if they may not know its detailed functions.
Etymology
Vitamin E got its name after scientists found animals needed it to have healthy babies; its chemical name tocopherol comes from Greek words meaning 'to bring forth', and researchers gave it the letter 'E' as the next vitamin label. That's why vitamin E is linked to 'reproduction' and to 'protecting' the body's cells.
