Free Radicals, Antioxidants and You
The free radicals that are present in your body have very important functions. The trouble with free radicals is that if your body makes more than enough for your needs they can cause trouble. A lot of really nasty diseases can be caused by too many free radicals . .
… including heart disease, stroke and cancer.
Fortunately, your body has a way of dealing with too many free radicals. Your body gets rid of any excess of free radicals by neutralising them with ANTIOXIDANTS.
But you have to have enough antioxidants circulating in the blood to be sure of neutralising the free radicals.
While the body can make some of its own antioxidants, most of them must be supplied by you, and in the right amounts. It’s what you eat that determines whether you have the right balance of the goodies and the baddies.
Fresh fruit and vegetables ! That’s what you need !
Fresh fruit and vegetables provide a range of antioxidants including vitamin C and vitamin E.
Quite apart from the ‘five a day’, it is equally important that you have a varied diet to supply some of the other substances needed to neutralise an excess of free radicals.
Perhaps your lifestyle doesn’t always allow you to have the healthiest diet, and you cope with this by taking vitamin and mineral supplements.
But no matter what your diet is like, how can you tell if you are having enough antioxidants ?
It is now possible to measure the antioxidants in your blood from a mere pin prick.
So very sensitive is the new test that it only takes a tenth of a drop of blood to make a precise measurement that will put your mind at rest or allow you to take steps to remedy a low value.
BE WELL! BE AWARE!
