Antioxidants: many vitamins like vitamins C and E, and beta-carotene are antioxidants.There is a great deal of talk recently about new miraculous substances Actually, antioxidants have been around for a long time. Many of the vitamins we rely upon like vitamins C and E, and beta-carotene are antioxidants. But there are other less well known antioxidants that are even more potent which are called the super antioxidants.
These super antioxidants, although not called vitamins because they aren't essential to life, are powerful weapons in our quest for optimum health. There are literally hundreds of scientific studies that show that these super antioxidants can do everything from support heart health to improve normal vision and enhance normal brain function . Oxidation in the body is a process similar to what happens to metal when it rusts, or to an apple when it turns brown after being cut. And just as a squeeze of lemon juice stops the oxidation of an apple, so do antioxidants stop the 'rusting' inside our bodies caused by 'free radicals.'
The word oxidation come from oxygen, an element that is essential to life, but can be harmful in some forms inside our bodies. A good oxygen molecule has its electrons paired up, making it stable. An unstable or harmful oxygen molecule has a missing electron, creating what is termed a free radical. These are bad because they go around grabbing onto other cells in their attempt to find another electron and become stable. In doing this, they can cause problems with the workings of the cell to which they attach. Scientists speculate that this is what accelerates the aging process.
Free radicals are all around us, in the air we breath, in the food we eat, and even as a natural product of living. In fact, free radicals are used by the immune system to fight off invading bacteria and viruses, but they can become a problem because of poor diet or living in a polluted environment. Antioxidants directly combat free-radicals, mitigating their negative effects.
It is the excessive free radicals, not balanced properly with antioxidants, that do damage. The ideal body, with ideal nutrition, in an ideal environment, would have the ability to counteract the free radicals it produces, and keep them under control. Eating and normal metabolic processes are responsible for a large percentage of the free radicals the body must deal with.
