Antioxidants are substances that fight the aging process that occurs in your body. They are not produced by the body to get the full benefit of these substances you should ingest energy. A variety of foods that contain antioxidants.

Let us at first. The body continually renews its cells. Through a process called cellular metabolism, the body produces energy, more cells and repair of damage. A byproduct of cellular metabolism are unstable molecules called free radicals.

Free radicals are molecules that damage your body. They are unstable because they lack an electron. For another and be stable, free radicals steal electrons from cells. theft that damages cells in a variety of ways.

The results are visible and invisible changes in our bodies. The development of diseases like cancer, diabetes, arthritis and neurological deficits can begin to affect you with age. Moreover, the skin wrinkles thinner and brittle bones are a problem. Free radicals enter our body from external sources, as follows: cigarette smoke, radiation and UV rays of the sun. The more free radicals we are, the greater the damage that can be done.

Antioxidants have proved helpful in the problem of free radicals. Antioxidants combined with free radicals and neutralize them. Once neutralized, can no longer no harm. Scientists have no idea of the recommended daily dose of antioxidants to reverse the damage of free radicals and the diseases that come with age, but they know that eating foods rich in antioxidants makes a big difference in how we live.

Where are antioxidants? They are around us. Look no further than your local farmer's market or produce aisle in the grocery store. Fruits and vegetables are the main sources of antioxidants.

Examples of antioxidants are:

Some minerals such as zinc and selenium also act in the body. They are antioxidants, but enhance the immune system to combat free radical damage.

Antioxidants are also found in nuts, legumes, cold-water fish, seafood and meat red. Therefore, eating a varied diet of fruits, vegetables and foods mentioned above will increase the amount of antioxidants in your system and help reduce the incidence of the disease.
