Antioxidant
The term antioxidant is used to define two groups of substances: industrial chemicals, which are added to products to prevent oxidation, and compounds that are to be found in their natural state in foods and tissues.
Natural antioxidants are substances that can prevent or slow down cell damage caused by free radicals (which come from radiation, pollution, smoking), unstable molecules that the body produces as it processes food and reacts to the environment. If the body cannot process and eliminate free radicals effectively, oxidative stress may occur, which leads to the manifestation of various disorders and to early aging.
Vitamins C and E are known for their natural antioxidant role.
