Antioxydants

Antioxidants neutralize free radicals that attack your cells. Free radicals reprogram DNA and are implicated in more than 60 diseases. In addition, aging, inflammation of the muscles, joints and other tissues, plus improper functioning of the circulatory system, nervous system (including brain cells) and immune system, often result from free radical damage.
Your body naturally protects itself against free radicals by forming antioxidants. Unfortunately, the continual bombardment of stress, environmental pollution, tobacco smoking, radiation and food processing destroy antioxidants, allowing the body to be more susceptible to disease and ill health. Consequently, the body has an extremely difficult time producing enough antioxidants to combat the contamination. Therefore, you must ensure adequate intake of antioxidants through foods or supplements.
