Antioxidants work in several ways: they may reduce the energy of the free radical, stop the free radical from forming in the first place, or interrupt an oxidizing chain reaction to minimize the damage caused by the free radicals. Antioxidants protect key cell components by neutralizing the damaging effects of “free radicals”, highly reactive compounds created in the body during normal metabolic functions (such as when oxygen is metabolized, or burned by the body). These free radicals travel through cells, disrupting the structure of other molecules, causing cellular damage. Reducing exposure to free radicals and increasing intake of antioxidant nutrients has the potential to reduce the risk of free radicalrelated health problems. Consuming a wide variety of antioxidant enzymes, vitamins, minerals and herbs may be the best way to provide the body with the most complete protection against free radical damage – and one of the strongest natural defenses against the aging process.
