Antioxidants: protection against free radicals
Antioxidants are micronutrients that react with so-called “free radicals” before those can destroy or modify important structures in the body. Free radicals can form under the influence of UV radiation, ozone pollution, nicotine, drugs or environmental pollutants. A certain exposure to free radicals is normal. If they become rampant however, so-called “oxidative stress” is the result. In order to prevent that, an optimal antioxidant status is necessary. For people subjected to an increased free radical exposure, a dietary support of the endogenous protection system is advisable. This includes stressed-out people as well as people who frequently fly, sunbathe, smoke, drink alcohol or are exposed to environmental pollution. Since antioxidants complement each other’s effects and are recycled upon depletion, a combination of different, antioxidant vital substances makes more sense than the high-dosage intake of a single preparation.
