Antioxidants: An Antiaging Secret
By
Staying young forever inside is not so much of a big work. What your heart
says is what matters. But externally, it’s not so easy after all. Skin care and
facial care when it comes to keeping them alive and to look young is indeed a
daunting job. Many people successfully do it without anyone realizing, and when
people ask them what is their secret, they would tell that it is ‘antioxidants’.
We have seen it many times on the TV or the internet, but what is really this
secret all about? Antioxidant is a type of chemical which neutralizes free
radicals into harmless elements, so that those radicals do not destroy the body
cells and contribute to aging. Radicals are produced during the oxidizing
process, a process of the body where our body cells oxidize and produce energy
called metabolism during their normal functioning.
Common Food Source
These antioxidants are in fact not an secret after all. They can be
found everywhere in our daily life, almost in every natural source of food we
can find, ranging from alls sorts of fruits to vegetables and oils to seafood.
Why this antioxidant becomes an secret is because it helps to slow
down the aging process, and the best part is without giving any side-effects
like any
other form of supplements that promise a younger looking skin.
Fruits that contain antioxidants in them are such as blueberries, cranberries,
blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, apples, mangoes, melons, papayas,
cherries, prunes, and almost all types of plums. Some vegetables that contain
antioxidants are such as carrots, broccoli, tomatoes, cabbage, artichokes,
asparagus, red ball pepper, cantaloupe beets, spinach and others. Fish and some
other seafood also contain much trace of antioxidants. Besides that, you can
even find this secret substance in many types of oils, such as
sunflower oil, almond oil, hazelnut, and safflower oil.
Basically, any food containing any of Vitamin A, Vitamin B-6, Vitamin B-12,
Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Carotene, Folic acid, or Selenium would contain
antioxidants inside them. That’s why we say that in fact it not a very big of an
antiaging secret, because most of the food that we daily have contain this
helpful protective agent.
Other Benefits
Besides just helping to slow down the aging process, this secret also
does many other wonders as well. It helps to generally prevent diseases such as
heart diseases, chronic infections, stroke, cataracts, Alzheimer's disease and
even cancer.
