Eat antioxidant foods to improve the condition of skin and boost the immune system.
What are antioxidants? They're molecules capable of slowing or preventing the oxidation of other molecules. They protect cells from unstable molecules causing free radical damage. They're the body's best defense by fighting free radicals.
Free radicals are everywhere including: alcohol, tobacco, prescription drugs, pollutants, radioactive material, exhaust fumes, industrial fumes, obesity, stress, harmful chemicals, food additives and oxygen. Our bodies are attacked on a daily basis.
FREE RADICALS AND SKIN
How do free radicals affect the skin? They speed up the skin's aging process by breaking down collagen levels and reducing oxygen levels in cells. If there are not enough antioxidants in the body, free radicals can overcome showing evidence of poor skin conditions, including: wrinkled skin, pre-cancerous or cancerous lesions, sagging skin, discolorations, age spots and other pre-mature, aged, skin conditions.
