What is an antioxidant?
Posted on 25. Jun, 2009 by John in News
Antioxidant is a broad term used to describe compounds derived from fruits and vegetables that work in the body to combat the harmful effects of free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules in the body that contain oxygen and attack other healthy cells. An example of free radical damage can be seen in one’s skin after unprotected exposure to the sun’s harmful UV rays. Premature aging, wrinkling and brown spots are the symptoms of free radical damage.
