What is an antioxidant?
An antioxidant is a nutrient capable of disabling potentially damaging
'free radicals' - which attack the body's cells. Free radicals are a
by-product of the process of oxidation in the body and they can damage
cells. The production of free radicals is increased by everyday
challenges including stress, pollution and poor diet.
Which foods are antioxidant-rich?
Vitamins A, C and E are all antioxidants. Vitamin A helps maintain the
immune system. Carotene, a pigment found in foods such as carrots and
apricots is split by the body to become two active units of vitamin A.
Vitamin C is known to support the immune system and is present in
cruciferous vegetables including broccoli and cauliflower and some
fruits. Vitamin E protects vitamin A and Essential Fatty Acids (EFA's)
from oxidation in the body; it is present in vegetable oil, nuts,
seeds and green leafy vegetables.
