A brief of antioxidant food supplements

Antioxidant food supplementAntioxidant supplements take part in a protective role for our general health.  Antioxidants supplements are theoretical to postpone the oxidation reactions which are is caused by the free radicals. The Free radicals are extremely reactive unstable atoms produced in our body that can damage cells causing to ageing and a number of diseases. They can damage the DNA, proteins and other cellular structures like the cell organelles and membranes.

The reactions of free radicals in the cell, and subsequent damage inflicted has been associated with various disorders and chronic diseases including atherosclerosis, arthritis, cancer, Alzheimer’s and diabetes and also inflammatory conditions

Antioxidants supplements are able to slow down or obstruct these dangerous reactions in the body.  They can halt the oxidation reaction with intermediates or directly. They react with the free radicals and put off the oxidation reaction from occurring. 

Antioxidants supplements can be used as tablets and capsules or taken as dietary supplements. They can provide a range of benefits for our health. (more…)

Oxygen is the basis of all plant and animal life. It is our most important nutrient, needed by every cell, without it we cannot release the energy in food which drives all body processes; Oxygen is chemically reactive and highly dangerous, in normal biochemical reactions oxygen can become unstable and capable of “oxidising neighbouring molecules”, leading to cellular damage, which triggers cancer, inflammation, arterial damage and aging;
Known as free oxidising radicals, this body waste must be disarmed to remove the danger; Free radicals are made in all combustion processes including smoking, the burning of petrol to create exhaust fumes, radiation, frying or barbecuing food and normal body processes;
Chemicals capable of disarming free radicals are called antioxidants. The main players are vitamins A, C and E plus beta-carotene, the precursor of vitamin A that is found in fruit and vegetables;
Bioflavonoids, anthocyanadins, pycnogenol and over a hundred other antioxidants, may literally be the balance between life and death;
A low calorie diet high in antioxidant nutrients is the best way to slow down the aging process; (more…)
