Free radicals are unstable atoms that contribute largely to the process of aging, as well as illnesses. These atoms damage cells around the body, as well as proteins and DNA. They are generated in the body as natural byproducts but levels can become excessive through exposure to pollution, toxins or radiation.
Taking antioxidants is one way to stabilize and neutralize free radicals, to prevent them from doing damage. Detoxification agents will also help to support the body’s natural defences.
