Antioxidant

Antioxidants are elements that slow down or prevent the oxidation process of our body.

 

In the human body the oxygen is used to burn food and produce energy for daily activities. Even if the combustion process is necessary it produces molecules dangerous for our body: the Free Radicals.
 

Free radicals are  waste combustion molecules they are atoms with an unpaired electron, they are unstable and harm the dangerous for the body if not kept under control.
 

Antioxidants are involved in the oxidation of cells by oxidation of themselves and then interrupting the continuous formation of free radicals.
able to stop the damage of free radicals that are continuously produced during the combustion process.

 

Free Radicals can also be produced by external factors such as UV rays from the sun, tobacco, pollution and the effects that can be seen is the premature aging of the skin. The endogenous antioxidants are often insufficient so it may be necessary to introduce dietary antioxidants.
 

The dietary antioxidants are Vitamin E, Vitamin C, beta-carotene (Vit.A) and a balanced and varied diet contains all of these nutrients.
