Antioxidant Vitamins

The antioxidant vitamins, including Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and Vitamin A (beta carotene) are important essentials that can help combat free radicals in our body. They have properties that actually promote our good health.

Research has shown that antioxidant vitamins can aid in preventing diseases, ranging from cancer, rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes to heart ailments, cataracts and even alzheimer's. There is also evidence to support that they fight degenerative diseases and aging of both the body and the mind.

Oxidation produces free radicals, which can damage other molecules in the body. Antioxidants neutralize these free radicals, thus blocking the natural process of oxidation.

The power of antioxidants can be amazing.
