Antioxidant Factors Tablets
Sugar, Salt and Starch Free * Suitable For Vegetarians
If you ever wondered why an apple turns brown after you cut it or why iron rusts when exposed to the elements, you are questioning the damage and destructive effects of oxidants (free radicals) normally found in the environment. Oxidation causes similar harm to the cells of your body. When you breathe, digest food, exercise or just sleep, your body produces potentially harmful agents called, free radicals. The free-radical chain reactions in your body take place countless times each day. To make matters worse, emotional stress, ultraviolet light and toxic substances in air pollution and cigarette smoke also generate free radicals that can put your health at risk. Fortunately, nature offers the means to protect yourself against the hazards of oxidation by-products. You can call on powerful allies known as, antioxidants, that work in opposition to free radicals. Researchers have found that antioxidants inhibit and control free radicals.
To minimize the damaging effects of free radicals, a balance of antioxidants is required. The most important antioxidants include: carotenoids such as beta carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, NAC (n-acetyl-l-cysteine), glutathione, L-cysteine and components found in certain herbs such as, ginkgo biloba, bilberry, red wine (grape skins) and green tea. The minerals, zinc and selenium, are crucial components of important antioxidant systems in the body. While steps should be taken to ensure adequate dietary sources, additional supplementation to provide optimal intake may be desirable.
CATEGORY HIGHLIGHTS
Solgar offers:
* Natural Beta Carotene/Carotenoid Mix - since current research supports that a natural mixture of carotenoids, like those found in fruits and vegetables, is associated with a reduced risk of certain diseases, we were the first to employ a natural mix of carotenoids in all our beta carotene, multivitamin/mineral, antioxidant and specialty formulas as opposed to the common practice of using only synthetic beta carotene. Our natural beta carotene/carotenoid mixture contains a blend of nutritionally valuable carotenoids not found in synthetic beta carotene such as: alpha carotene, cryptoxanthin, lutein and zeaxanthin.
