Free radical and antioxidants go hand in hand. Our bodies naturally produce free radicals. They are essentially highly reactive particles, that are free-roaming throughout the body causing cellular damage. As a result, they cause many negative health conditions and diseases. Free radicals are a product of poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, and other environmental toxins and stressors. Antioxidants prevent and help us recover from free radicals causing cellular damage, as a result preventing or helping recovery from disease. Therefore, the role of antioxidants through food and supplements is essential to one’s health in order to neutralize these free radicals.
