Antioxidants are a wide group of nutrients and amongst these the best known are vitamins A (and betacarotene), C, and E and some minerals.
Antioxidants are vital to the human body because they combat free radicals. Free radicals are incomplete molecules that 'patrol' the body destroying enzyme or protein molecules or even whole cells as they go along. On the surface this doesn't sound harmful, but take into account that each free radical can generate thousands more through chain reactions and you begin to get the bigger picture showing an exponential influx of free radicals in your body.
Antioxidants help the body by capping free radical production and by supporting the immune system so the body can cope on its own.
Modern living, pollution, smoking, radiation, sunlight, all increase the production of free radicals. Antioxidants are vital in our day to day lives because we expose our body's to so many harmful toxins daily. All of these add to a host of free radicals in our systems causing potential damage which over time will lead to cellular death.
