AntiOxidants

I am giving some simple & basic explanations about AntiOxidants below.


Antioxidant(s)

Antioxidants are found naturally in many fruits and vegetables and may protect cells from damage caused by the by-products (free radicals) of everyday metabolism and toxic substances in the environment and food.

Over time, free radicals can significantly damage cells and lead to a number of diseases associated with aging.

Antioxidants act as little vacuum cleaners, eliminating free radicals as they circulate throughout the body, preventing them from doing damage.
