We hear a lot about antioxidants and free radicals but exactly what are they?

Free radicals are particles that enter our bodies with polluted air, foods and cigarette smoke and cause mutation to the cells within us.

This so called oxidative damage is one of the main causes of illnesses such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes and dementia.

Individuals can limit the damage that results by consuming healthy diets. By consuming enough fruit and vegetables daily we ingest all of the minerals and vitamins that we need, including the antioxidants; vitamins A, C and E, plus beta carotene.
