Why
What Are Free Radicals And Why Do We Need Antioxidants? Oxidation occurs when free radicals (highly reactive, high-energy particles) ricochet wildly throughout the body and damage cells. Free radicals can be produced within the body by natural biological processes or introduced from outside via tobacco smoke, toxins, pollutants and sub-optimal eating habits. Free radicals are believed to accelerate the progression of many diseases. Antioxidants found in fruits and vegetables help to neutralise free radicals in our bodies. *1. *2.

Antioxidant power is the ability to neutralise oxygen free radicals. The more free radicals a substance can absorb, the higher it's ORAC score. Nutritionists recommend that we consume the 7 servings of fruits and vegetables of per day to significantly impact antioxidant activity in the body and reduce free radical damage.*1. *2.
