What Antioxidants Are and Where You Can Find Them
Antioxidants offer a number of health benefits, and they have been touted as a possible preventative of diseases, ranging from cancer to Alzheimer’s. Research suggests that antioxidants can indeed be effective in preventing a number of age-related diseases.
Antioxidants are present in fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as whole grains and beans. Fruits and Veggies that have bright, distinctive colours, such as, purple blueberries (wild highest amount), cranberries, Aronia berries, (newest super food), blackberry, raspberry, yellow corn and orange carrots, are rich in antioxidants.
How Antioxidants Fight Oxidative Stress and Free Radicals
As you age, your body tissues suffer from oxidative stress due to the process of oxidation. Oxidation is a natural process that happens to everyone. Much the same way as a car “rusts” out! . Antioxidants inhibit and maintain good health. The more free radicals build up in your body, the more oxidative stress you’ll suffer.
People who eat fruit rich in polyphenols and anthocyanins have a lower risk of cancer, heart disease and some neurological diseases “In fact, free radicals are a major culprit in the aging process itself” stated Lester Packer, Ph.D., in his article, “The Antioxidants Miracle”.
