Benefits of Antioxidants!
There are many places to find the benefits of antioxidants. What are antioxidants? They are a chemical compound or substance that inhibits oxidation. Antioxidants are the body’s friend. They help to seek out, neutralize and destroy, damaging, free radicals that can wreck havoc on the body, inside and out! Free radicals are produced by the body to aid in the metabolic processes, such as digestion and converting food into energy. They can be quite helpful in natural bodily functions, but when too many are produced they become the body’s dangerous enemy. Dangerous free radicals are unstable molecules that steal electrons from stable molecules, in order to satisfy their need for repair. They cause oxidation in the blood, which can result in the onset of many diseases. Once the stable molecule is destabilized, it becomes a free radical itself. A vicious molecular chain reaction then ensues. Even just a single free radical can cause damage millions of other molecules, preventing proper bodily functions. Discover the benefits of antioxidants and how they can improve your life!
Antioxidants block the oxidation process by neutralizing dangerous free radicals. They feed electrons to them and then become oxidized themselves. Our bodies produce an enzyme to neutralize free radicals but they need the help of antioxidants! By supplementing our diets, the body can maintain a better and healthier dose of combative antioxidants! 
Where do free radicals come from? They attack and assault the body’s cells from different sources: alcohol, tobacco, prescription drugs, pollutants, sun bathing, ultraviolet rays, X-rays, gamma rays, radioactive material, exhaust fumes, industrial fumes, obesity, stress, harmful chemicals and food additives and even from pure oxygen. Our bodies are attacked from free radicals on a daily basis. They can seriously affect the immune system, threatening our very vitality. Scientific studies suggests that OPC, (oligomeric proanthocyanidins), is one of the most powerful, multifunctional, antioxidant known to man. Research describes it as vitamin P. It supports and protects vitamin C functions in the body, by allowing more vitamin C to reach the cells for nourishment. It’s known throughout Europe as the “youth nutrient” because of its ability to combat collagen damage. Grape seed and pine bark have high OPC content. It’s a non-toxic substance with many benefits including: strengthens capillaries and arteries, improves skin’s texture, helps maintain proper circulation, improve visual acuity, improve memory, reduce stress and improve joint flexibility.
BENEFITS OF ANTIOXIDANTS AND SKIN CARE: Free radicals speed up the aging process with the breakdown of collagen and reduced oxygen levels found in cells. They are usually neutralized by vitamin c and e. However, when they overcome the antioxidants available, they may lead to wrinkling of skin, pre-cancerous and cancerous skin lesions. Vitamins A, C and E, beta-carotene and selenium are common antioxidants. They assist skin repair, strengthen blood vessels, reverse discoloration, reduce wrinkles, protect from sun damage and more! Many of these nutrients can be found in commercial or homemade skin care products: lotions, creams, soaps, shampoo and more.

Olive leaf oil, green tea, shea butter and avocado oil provide the benefits of antioxidants. These are excellent antioxidant sources for making homemade soap, lotions, creams, scrubs and more! 
Olive leaf oil is loaded with antioxidants: oleurpein, hydroxytyrosol, flavonoids and polyphemols. They protect the body from free radicals, boost the immune system, protect the cardiovascular system and lower the risk of cancer.
Another good source is green tea extract. Green tea contains antioxidants called catechine, which scavenge for free radicals that can damage DNA. It can reduce inflammation, protect from sun damage and help to slow the signs of skin aging, firm and balance skin tone.
Shea butter contains antioxidants benefits. It moisturizes, soothes and protects the skin. It helps to reduce scars, soothe minor burns, evens skin tone, relieve sunburns, fade stretch marks, restore elasticity to skin, reduces blemishes, provides acne relief and moisturizes dry itchy skin.
