Slice an apple into half, and it turns brown. A copper penny suddenly becomes green, or an iron nail when left outside, will rust. What do all these events have in common? These are examples of a process called oxidation. If the sliced apple is dipped in a lemon juice, however, the rate at which the apple turns brown is slowed. It is because the Vitamin C in the lemon juice slows the rate of oxida

By Dave Saunders Since the initial discovery of antioxidants, science continues to move forward with new developments and new understanding into how these important molecules work to protect the body from oxidative stress and even prevent the progression of certain disease processes. New scientific developments also show that different antioxidants can actually positively synergize with each other or in some cases cancel each other out. Laboratory methods of measuring these synergies have become the buzz in the research world and amongst informed authors as the only viable method of comparing apples to apples, or at least antioxidants to antioxidants. Effective laboratory tests are also essential in the study of antioxidants as well as antioxidant supplements because many manufac
An Antioxidant is any substance or nutrient in our foods which can reduce, neutralize, and prevent the damage done to the body by free radicals. Free radicals are highly reactive chemicals that attack molecules by capturing electrons and thus modifying chemical structures. Health problems such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, macular degeneration, etc are all contributed by free radicals.An Antioxidant has anti-aging effect because it acts as a scavenger of free radicals (and other reactive oxygen species) which is linked with human diseases as well as cardiovascular disease, aging, and cancer. An Antioxidant may also enhance immune defense and lower the risk of infection.An Antioxidant can be naturally found in fruits, vegetables, and plants in general. It is also synthesized in our b

By: Angelo JohnsonUnderstanding the relationship between antioxidants and free radicals is very important for your body’s overall well-being. Antioxidants are simply molecules that slow down or preventthe deterioration and damage of cells in the body. A low level of antioxidants in your body can cause oxidative stress and may damage or even kill off cells. Many diseases and illnesses, such as cancer, stroke, heart disease and even vision loss, are believed to be directly effected by the level of oxidative stress in a person's body. Therefore, antioxidants are important because they help to neutralize the free radicals in your body to prevent the oxidation of cells. A diet high in antioxidants can not only help combat illnesses such as cancer and heart disease, it can also help prevent in
By: Robert Rister The natural products market in North America is saturated with products that claim to boost the metabolism to take off the pounds. You can find a hydroxycut caffeine-free fat burner, a liquidgel green tea product, and a variety of supplements that claim to correct "glucose intolerance" (the mainstream term is "insulin resistance") specifically to help diabetics lose weight. A research study published just in February 2008, however, suggests that a combination of two safe and inexpensive supplements may:*Enlarge and activate the mitochondria ("energy machinery") inside adipose tissue to oxidize lipids*Activate insulin to transport glucose and fatty acids out of the bloodstream to fat cells with these activated mitochondria and*Do all this without accelerating the heart rat
By: Darrell MillerAlthough seventy years ago the average life expectancy was age 62, today people are not only living well into their 80s and 90s, but they are also living better too. Doing activities such as mountain biking, kayaking, jogging, hiking, gardening, and golfing, it seems as if everyone is on the go, no matter what their age. Since nobody wants to spend retirement in a doctor’s office, it is important to start planning for a longer, more vibrant life.

By: Darrell Miller The discovery of alpha lipoic acid at the University Of Texas Chemistry Department in 1951 was not heralded with trumpets of joy at the revelation of such a powerful antioxidant, but was instead largely ignored. This is largely due to the biochemistry involved not being fully understood at that time, but by the 1980s it was a commonly used supplement, recommended for several medical conditions.Chemically, the substance is a 5-membered cyclic disulphide with a carboxylic acid grouping. Biochemically, it’s extremely powerful antioxidant properties are largely due to the fact that it one of those rare active molecules that are soluble in both water and fats, and in fact is the only such antioxidant currently know. One of the properties that this ability enables it to poss
By: Mitamins Team Lupus disease, like any autoimmune disease, is an extremely difficult condition to treat. How can you fight against something causing you immense discomfort when that something is your own body? Because of this, lupus treatment is often restricted to controlling the signs and symptoms of lupus while the cause of the disease is found. In 90% of cases the cause is never found, meaning a long course of medication for many. This is why more and more people are turning to the natural choice of vitamins as lupus treatment. A leading light in natural lupustreatment is vitamin E.Lupus: The Enemy WithinWhat can vitamin E do to relieve the signs and symptoms of lupus? The answer to that question begins with looking more closely with what we are up against. The most dangerous and co
By: Vincent Platania"Antioxidant dietary supplement" is a catch phrase that is bantered about without much clarification. American's are educated in the simple definition of antioxidant: cancer fighter. There is really more to be explained about how these supplements work. Still one thing that isunquestionably true is the high incidence of cancer especially in older people.The American Cancer Society reported that between 1997 through 2001 the rate at which new cases of all types of cancer were diagnosed in the United States was about 470 per 100,000 people. During the same time period there were about 200 cancer deaths per 100,000 people per year. It further reported that 76% of all cancers are diagnosed in persons aged 55 and older. That would suggest that while the cancer rate is high;

The following study reveals one potential mechanism through which sulfated glucosamine may act to suppress osteoarthritis. This particular study highlights the antioxidant activity of sulfated glucosamine on reducing oxidative stress in chondrocytes (cartilage cells). The implications of this study include the possibility that glucosamine may actually reduce celluar damage caused by oxidative strees on chondrocytes and therefore potentially act not only as a symptom modifying agent, but more importantly as a disease modifying agent in the treatment of osteoarthritis."Although, several effects of glucosamine and its sulfated form (sulfated glucosamine) have been proposed for the suppression of osteoarthritis, their exact mechanisms have not been completely elucidated. This study explains the novel possibility of involvement of sulfated glucosamine in improving cellular antioxidant potential and thereby controlling oxidative damage that could be effective for its therapeutic potential in

The next cancer drug might come straight from the grocery store, according to new research published in the November 2007 issue of The FASEB Journal. In the study, French scientists describe how high and low doses of polyphenols have different effects. Most notably, they found that very high doses of antioxidant polyphenols shut down and prevent cancerous tumors by cutting off the formation of new blood vessels needed for tumor growth. Polyphenols are commonly found in red wine, fruits, vegetables, and green tea.
At relatively low doses, the French researchers found that the same polyphenols play a beneficial role for those with diseased hearts and circulatory systems by facilitating blood vessel growth. Sources:Eurekalert October 30, 2007
Did you know that Vitamin C is needed for over 350 different functions within the human body? In fact, there is very little that this handy vitamin does not do when it comes to your health. For example, the human skeleton is held together by connective tissue known as collagen, and this collagen cannot be made without vitamin C.
This may help you understand better why vitamin C is always recommended whenever you have an injury or you want to promote healing. The first thing my mother used to always say when I get sick was to take my vitamin C. This is because you need collagen and in order to repair any damages to the body and boost your immune system, vitamin C aids in this repair.
Of all the many antioxidants, vitamin C ranks #1 above them all. In addition to clearing out free radicals, vitamin C also teams up with other antioxidants and supports their functioning when needed. Much like how a car cannot run without gasoline, other vitamins and minerals (like iron for example), ca
The health benefits of antioxidants have been well publicized in the last several years.But what actually are antioxidants?Antioxidants are potential disease-fighters found naturally in some foods and also in synthetic supplements. They work by ridding the body of harmful free radicals, the "nasties" responsible for cellular destruction which may lead to a number of conditions such as heart disease and cancer.Keep in mind that even though the media is big on antioxidant consumption (ever heard of "superfoods"?), the research on these is not conclusive. This means that some studies have pointed to the health benefits of antioxidants, while others haven't.Take a recent example...a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine. You may have heard about his one...researchers in Denmark reviewed thousands of clinical studies, omitting those which were poorly designed or had flawed conclusions. Their results pointed in the opposite direction of what you woul
There are just over 560 carotenoids that are found in the dark green, dark orange, and yellow fruits and vegetables - and beta carotene is one of them. Other carotenoids include alpha carotene, lycopene, as well as canthaxanthin. However, beta carotene is the one carotenoid that is most easily converted to vitamin A by the body.
Even though researchers have known since the early times of this century that this substance found in plants (beta carotene) could be converted over to vitamin A by the body, it was not until the early 1980's that research provided the proof that beta carotene had functions that were separate from its role with vitamin A.
Over the past two decades, we have learned more about the interrelation between vitamin A and beta carotene. But moreover, we possess the knowledge from studies that now show that beta carotene enhances health and provides disease-prevention. This includes strengthening the immune system, antioxidant functions, cancer prevention, and cel
Deep dish pizza could be good for your health in the future, researchers have found a way to boost the antioxidant content of pizza dough by varying the baking and fermentation methods.Scientists already knew that pizza flavor could be enhanced by longer and higher baking methods. The study found that those same conditions could also boost the levels of antioxidants in the pizza dough - especially the whole-wheat varieties. This is probably because whole-wheat flour retains parts of the bran and the endosperm, which is where most of the antioxidants come from.Deep-dish pizza, which is thicker and requires longer baking times, may be the best bet when it comes to the possibility of optimizing pizza's health benefits. In the study, researchers found that antioxidant levels could be boosted up to 60 percent by longer baking times - up to 82 percent by higher temperatures.For more info on healthy living check out my past post on red wine.Stay healthy and keep on stretching.....stretchg
Do you know that antioxidant vitamins help to stop certain illness, ranging from heart complaint to cancer? In recent years, scientists have identified several antioxidant vitamins posses an added advantage to help maintain good health. The vitamins most often identified as antioxidants are Vitamins A, C, and E. In addition to prevent the cardiovascular ailments and cancer, these vitamins are crucial to the health of certain tissues and specific body processes. If you want to achieve broad range of protection from these unique vitamins, the antioxidant vitamins should be combined with other important nutrients.

There are many reasons why having an antioxidant rich diet is important. They help you stay healthy and prevent your body from catching disease through free radicals. The best antioxidants to have in your diet are isoflavones, beta-carotene, lyopene and vitamin(s) C. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can create cellular damage. Having an antioxidant rich diet will also help with antiaging. Healthy tissues will keep you body looking young. Soy is another source of keeping your body's tissue healthy and stable. Look for a supplement that has a high concentration in soy or one that contains many vitamin(s). Along with a diet rich in these substances eating a good amount of fruits and veggies is just as important.

A large international study on the benefits associated with vitamin A, vitamin C and vitamin E antioxidant supplement pills, sold at nutritional stores, has found that many of the benefits advertised are nothing more then talk. The study covered over 200,000 people and was carried out from 1977 to 2005. One of the shocking findings was that there was a 16% higher death rate associated with people taking vitamin A pills on a regular basis then people who did not. What this means for the consumer is that they have to be more careful when buying antioxidant supplements in pill form. Remember, there is still evidence that food rich in antioxidants are beneficial; review products before you buy. And don't forget that a healthy diet and exercise are the best ways to increase and sustain a healthy, disease free lifestyle.
