Antioxidant Rich Foods With Every Meal
There is better way of maintaining that youthful look and healthy glow, without turning to the plastic surgeon's knife. Making peace with the aging process and keeping that healthy glow, is as simple as changing the types of food's we eat. God has put in a magical ingredient in certain foods and that magical ingredient is antioxidants, which gives you the power, for staying young.
Antioxidants, has shown its face on the pages of magazines, been wrote about in medical journals, and has become an additive in every product from hand creams to supplement. Now, I don't think that processed products, are as good for us as the natural forms.
Something You Can Try
The next time you or your youngin, (southern slang for child) gets sunburned, do not go to the drug store and buy a lotion with aloe vera (the burn plant) in it. You know from experience that the products does not work all that well. But, they are better than nothing. Instead, go to your local nursery and buy the plant. When you get it home, skin it and rub the slim all over the burn. You will see that the magical gift (the plant) will stop the pain instantly.
I believe, that we have all that we need, to solve all of our problems, we just have to be smart enough to Look, Listen and Learn.

Antioxidants are substances that are capable of neutralizing the affects of free radicals, in the normal effects of the physiological process of oxidation in animal tissue. The body can not produce antioxidants, they have to be digested.
Antioxidants have to be digested because they are nutrients, vitamins, minerals and enzymes (proteins in our bodies that assist in chemical reactions). They are believed to play a role in preventing the development of chronic diseases, cancer, cataracts, heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer's and Rheumatoid arthritis.
I have been reading that all arthritis suffers all have one thing in common, they are boron deficient. I do not suffer from arthritis but, have known people that were totally crippled by Rheumatoid arthritis. And if it is a simple as a boron deficiency, that is a total shame. So here is a liquid boron. A liquid because they are absorbed quicker and easier by the body.

Let us go back a little bit. The body continually repairs and replenishes its cells. Through the process called cellular metabolism, the body produces energy, and uses that energy for repairing damage cells and creating new ones. One of the by-products of cellular metabolism is the unstable molecules called free radicals
Free radicals are hungry and chemically active atoms or molecular fragments. They are hungry because their electrons are unbalanced. They either have to many or missing an electron. These little molecules are very active, in their quest to become stable they scavenge your body to grab or donate electrons. Thereby damaging cells, proteins and DNA.
The damage to our bodies can be visible or worst yet, invisible. The development of diseases and neurological deficiencies may develop as we age. Our skin will wrinkles and our bones will become more brittle. Our bodies are not the only source of free radicals, they are all around us. The sun produces them, they are in our polluted air, smoke and vehicle exhaust. But, they are not totally evil, they have a purpose, they help our white-blood cells fight bacteria and viruses. The Austrian government is doing extensive research on free radicals.
Antioxidants have been shown to be a great help in the free radical problem. Antioxidants combine with the free radicals and neutralize them. Scientists don’t have any idea of a recommended daily dose of antioxidants to correct free radical damage and the diseases that come with age, but they do know that eating foods rich in antioxidants makes a huge difference in how we live.
So, where do we find antioxidants? That is easy they are in the foods we eat. The more natural we eat the more antioxidant we get. Fruits and vegetables are the primary source of antioxidants.
Examples of antioxidants include:
* Vitamin C
* Vitamin A
* Vitamin E
* Lutein
* Lycopene
* Beta-carotene (changes to vitamin A in the body)
Certain minerals boost the immune system. Zinc and selenium are two examples. Nuts, legumes, cold water fish, seafood and red meat are also sources of antioxidants. We have to eat a varied diet, consisting of fruits and vegetables, nuts, beans, fish, seafood and meat.
Eating fruits and vegetables in their natural state, will not only give you antioxidants to fight the ageing process, will have a ton of vitamin, minerals and trace elements, so we can grow old gracefully. That is why I bought the nutriBullet, to give myself a helping hand, I should have started in my forty's or better yet, my thirty's. But, it is better late than never. It has been a month and has made a world of difference.
Antioxidant have to power to help us stay younger and healthier longer. Don't wait - start eating for your health, not just to stave off hunger.
But if you would rather take a supplement to get an extra boost in antioxidant I have one below that might fit the bill.
