What are Antioxidants?

Antioxidants are substances that can help protect the cells in our body against damage from free radicals. They can also help prevent and slow down the aging process of cells. Free radicals are molecules that have an unpaired electron, and so they react with other molecules to form new, unstable compounds. Free radicals can cause damage to cells and tissues, which can lead to aging or even cancer.

Antioxidants can come from food or dietary supplements. They are found in many fruits and vegetables, such as blueberries, broccoli, apples, carrots, and tomatoes. Antioxidant vitamins include vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin E, found in nuts and seeds like walnuts and almonds. Foods high in antioxidants like berries, green tea, and nuts have been shown to reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, and other diseases.
