Antioxidants
Antioxidants protect the body from damage caused by different factors, specifically oxidative damage from substances called free radicals. Free radicals, also known as ROS (reactive oxygen species), are produced when your body uses oxygen for energy.

ROS are emitted from the conversion of oxygen to energy, eventually causing oxidative damage to body systems. Free radicals are also created when the body is exposed to pollution, cigarette smoke, car exhaust and other harmful environmental toxins.
There are many types of antioxidants. Most work better when paired with other antioxidants - this process is called synergism. Vitamins C and E are a type of antioxidant supplement. The tripeptide glutathione, loosely classified as an amino acid, will act as an antioxidant, along with other true amino acids such as methionine.
People often consume raw herbs and vegetables which contain natural antioxidants called bioflavonoids and carotenoids. These antioxidants, although effective on their own, work better when synergistically combined with other antioxidant supplements. Together these nutrients protect your cells from nasty free radicals, protecting the body from disease and slowing the signs of aging.
Antioxidants are important supplements for everyone, but especially for those who exercise frequently. Exercise is a highly oxidative process, producing free radicals from aerobic metabolism. Antioxidant supplements can effectively help suppress this oxidative process.
Benefits
• minimizes damage caused by free radicals
