Antioxidants are nutrient compounds produced by your body and also obtained from eating antioxidant-rich foods. Antioxidants can be vitamins, minerals, or other phytochemicals (plant chemicals).

Phytochemicals are substances that plants naturally produce to protect themselves against the stress caused by intense sunlight and harsh growing conditions, as well as viruses, bacteria, and fungi. When you eat plant foods, you get the same antioxidant protection for yourself. These phytonutrients are considered nonessential nutrients, meaning that they are not required by the human body for sustaining life. However, it would be foolish to assume that they don't have powerful benefits for optimal health.

The primary purpose for antioxidants is to protect your cells from free radical damage. Free radicals are highly reactive oxygen molecules created as a normal byproduct of your metabolism. Free radicals are considered to be a primary cause of aging. When these particles are allowed to roam freely and become too numerous, you have oxidative stress, now considered one of the primary causes of aging and degenerative diseases.

Are you already taking supplements that have antioxidants in them? Curious if your body is absorbing them or if your paying for a supplement that is not even working for your body?

One of my favorite parts of being able to check my antioxidant levels, is the ability to see what is going on in my life and how it is affecting my life! It shows that stress can affect your health in a bad way!
