Importance Of Anti-Oxidants
Anti-oxidants, sometimes
called free radical "scavengers" are various forms of foods, herbs, hormones
or other substances that have the beneficial ability to cleanup the unwanted
free radicals from the body.
Many recent studies have implicated free radicals in the development of many
health maladies including cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and even
aging. Humans and other animals have efficient antioxidant enzyme systems
which require various nutrients properly. Even with perfect health the
enzyme systems never are able to completely remove all free radicals and
over time the intruders do build up within the body, leading to various age
related health problems. A regular consumption of anti-oxidants through
proper diet and supplementation is essential in combating the free radical
problem.
Anti-oxidants are an essential ingredient of any anti-aging program. Many of the concepts of the Free Radical theory of aging are now commonly accepted by the scientific community. By removing free radicals, anti oxidants help to :
