Antioxidant and Immune Support Supplements

Antioxidants are substances or nutrients in our foods which can prevent or slow the oxidative damage to our body. When our body cells use oxygen, they naturally produce free radicals (by-products) which can cause damage. Antioxidants act as "free radical scavengers" and hence prevent and repair damage done by these free radicals. Health problems such as heart disease, macular degeneration, diabetes, neurodegeneration and many more may be caused by oxidative damage. Studies show that supplementing with antioxidants can reduce oxidative damage thereby promoting health.
