It is well publicized that antioxidants fight free radicals which have been linked to heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and many chronic conditions. Free radicals are natural by-products of oxidation and other metabolic processes. Though free radicals are known to play a part in the body’s defenses, they are also known as unstable molecules that damage cells and cause DNA mutation. Scientists agree that too many free radicals are harmful and that pollutants, alcohol, cigarette smoke, stress, unhealthy diet and sun overexposure can generate excessive free radicals that overwhelm your normal antioxidant defenses.

“We’re learning that antioxidants should be consumed with every meal,” says Prior. “And if you routinely skip antioxidants in your diet, over time, the excess number of free radicals being produced may begin damaging cellular components, ultimately leading to atherosclerosis, cancer, and other diseases.”
