Antioxidants are capable of slowing or preventing the oxidation of other molecules (free radicals) that can seriously damage our health. And the best sources of antioxidants are found in dark-colored fruits like berries and red grapes. You can eat them fresh or make juices – anything you want. If you enjoy fruit juices – make them, if you enjoy brutal eating of grapes – do it!
Not all of the antioxidants are the same. There are numerous types of them and each one dominates more or less in any fruit you eat. The same is with free radicals (the targets of antioxidants).
One thing how free radicals appear in our body is the environment around us (excess sunlight, smoking, pollution, even excess exercises) or the free radicals can be even made in your own body. So this all listed above means that we need to take antioxidants (good guys) all of our life just to fight the free radicals (the bad ones). But this is perfectly natural and we are partly doing it already. But is this enough? We have been getting the antioxidants for centuries by eating fruits and vegetables, not even knowing that they even exist!
There is always this ‘’but’’ – over the last years out, diets has changed and a lot of chemicals are added to our food (which is bad) just to make it fresh a bit longer and cost a bit less… junk food… We have been unaware of the lack of nutrition in our diets.
So this will be our fight with the free radicals! Lets help the antioxidants!
- In short partake of a balanced and natural diet.
Why we should do this?
- The nutrition we require in our food is present. Synthetic out, natural in.
- Maintaining balanced diet, exercise and stay positive. So take your life easy and keep cool socially, professionally and emotionally
If you will live healthy life, eat healthy food, exercise and smile, there is a chance that you will even get all of the antioxidants you need. But to be sure you can take some antioxidant supplements – they help!
