Hunt­ing Down Free Radicals

Build A Per­sonal Stand­ing Army of Antioxidants

How do Antiox­i­dants pro­tect us?

Oxy­gen the largest com­po­nent of the body by weight does one of two things.  It either oxy­genates your cells to pro­vide the energy needed for the body to run or it oxi­dizes your cells and kills them.  To pre­vent this from hap­pen­ing, the body requires Antioxidants.

Oxi­da­tion is all around us in dif­fer­ent forms. Rust on untreated steel, food spoilage (Brow­ing Food), and aging struc­tures to name but a few exam­ples that you see every­day.  All aging and obe­sity is directly linked to oxi­da­tion in the body caused by free rad­i­cals.  Free rad­i­cal dam­age is cumu­la­tive which is why it is impor­tant to neu­tral­ize them as quickly as pos­si­ble.  This is why you lit­er­ally need a stand­ing army to fight these rad­i­cals.  An army of Antiox­i­dants can lit­er­ally neu­tral­ize free rad­i­cals as they form.
