Antioxidants protect cells from free radicals, which are byproducts of metabolism that can damage cells. The body produces antioxidants, but also obtains them from foods like green tea, berries, dark chocolate, and fish. Important dietary antioxidants include vitamins A, C, and E, flavonoids, and selenium, which help manufacture glutathione to protect cells from oxidative damage and reduce chronic disease risk. Maintaining adequate antioxidant intake through fruits and vegetables is essential for health.

study of antioxidants
Antioxidants are naturally occurring chemicals that help counter the damaging effects of free radicals. They are found in many fruits and vegetables. Eating a diet high in antioxidants from plant foods helps protect cells from damage and may reduce the risk of diseases. Some key antioxidants include vitamins A, C, and E, beta-carotene, lutein, and anthocyanins. Both natural and synthetic antioxidants are used as food preservatives.
Antioxidant
Antioxidants are compounds that inhibit oxidation reactions by preventing or slowing the rate of lipid oxidation in food systems. Common antioxidants include vitamins A, C, and E, beta-carotene, selenium, and lycopene, which are found in many fruits and vegetables with bright colors. Antioxidants can stabilize free radicals produced during oxidation reactions in the body that can otherwise damage cells and are linked to diseases like cancer and heart disease. Consuming a diet with five servings of fruits and vegetables daily can help reduce oxidative stress through antioxidants.
Antioxidants
Antioxidants are substances that prevent or slow cell damage caused by unstable molecules called free radicals produced during environmental and bodily processes as a reaction to stress. Free radicals can damage cells and DNA if not removed efficiently, potentially leading to diseases. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals and are found in many fruits, vegetables, nuts, and spices. Consuming a variety of antioxidant-rich foods may help reduce risks of diseases linked to oxidative stress like heart disease and cancer.
Antioxidants and their therapeutic implications
Free radicals are produced during normal metabolism but can damage cells. Antioxidants help destroy free radicals and prevent this damage. Sources of antioxidants include vitamins C and E, beta-carotene, selenium, and phytonutrients found in plants. Lipid peroxidation occurs when free radicals damage lipids and can affect food quality, nutrition, and health, causing conditions like heart disease. Antioxidants have therapeutic implications, as they may help treat or prevent cardiovascular disease, certain cancers, brain injuries, strokes, neurodegenerative diseases, and liver damage by reducing oxidative stress.

Introducing Astaxanthin – nature’s most potent antioxidant
Astaxanthin, the naturally occurring carotenoid responsible for the pink-red pigmentation of wild salmon and crustaceans such as shrimp and lobsters, is a potent and effective antioxidant that boasts an ability to combat oxidative stress 6000x greater than that of vitamin C, 800x coenzyme Q10, 550x vitamin E and 75x alpha lipoic acid. Naturally, we are very excited to introduce AstaPure astaxanthin to our Pure Essentials range, launching in March!
Most commonly associated with preventing age-related diseases, astaxanthin’s unique chemical structure that spans the cell membrane gives rise to an exciting and diverse array of health benefits. New research is coming out daily suggesting astaxanthin is a highly effective tool in combating age-related diseases and cardiovascular disease, as well as boosting the immune system, liver and brain function.

Vitamins
Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that exists in several forms and has important functions in vision, cell growth, reproduction, and immune function. It helps cells reproduce normally and is essential for good vision, embryo development, and keeping skin and mucous membranes healthy. A deficiency can cause night blindness, skin issues, and even blindness, while an overdose during pregnancy can cause birth defects. Vitamin A is found in foods like liver, sweet potatoes, carrots, and dark leafy greens.
Role of antioxidant in health and disease
This document discusses the role of antioxidants in health and disease. It defines free radicals and describes how they are produced endogenously through metabolism and exogenously through environmental factors. Free radicals can cause oxidative damage but are balanced by the body's antioxidant defense system, which includes antioxidant enzymes like catalase and glutathione peroxidase, chain breaking antioxidants like vitamin E and beta-carotene, and transition metal binding proteins. The document outlines the sources and roles of various reactive oxygen species and antioxidants in the body.
Antioxidants
The document discusses how antioxidants like vitamins C and E, carotenoids, and enzymes like superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase protect the body from free radical damage by neutralizing reactive oxygen species. It explains that oxidative stress occurs when there is an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the body's antioxidant defenses, leading to cell and tissue damage if left unchecked. Maintaining adequate intake of antioxidants from foods and proper functioning of the body's endogenous antioxidant systems is important for preventing diseases linked to oxidative stress.
Marine derived nutraceuticals and its potential use
Marine organisms are a promising source of nutraceuticals that can provide health benefits. Compounds from seaweeds, algae, fish, and shellfish have anti-inflammatory, cholesterol-lowering, and antioxidant properties. Examples of marine-derived nutraceuticals include omega-3 fatty acids from fish oils, carotenoids and sterols from algae, and chitosan from shellfish shells. These compounds may help reduce the risk of diseases like cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. The market for marine nutraceuticals is growing as consumers increasingly seek healthy lifestyle and disease prevention options.

Vitamins are organic compounds that organisms require in limited amounts but cannot synthesize themselves. They are classified based on their biological activity rather than their structure. Vitamins function as antioxidants, hormones, and enzyme cofactors important for many processes like metabolism, growth, vision, and immune function. There are two types - water soluble vitamins like the B vitamins and vitamin C, and fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. Each vitamin plays a unique but vital role in human health and deficiency can lead to different diseases.

PROTIPUSH PROTEIN POWDER: Effective Supplementation for Strengthen Your Immun...Associate Professor in VSB Coimbatore
Researchers are exploring the effects of diet, exercise, age, psychological stress, and other factors on the immune response, both in animals and in humans. In the meantime, general healthy-living strategies are a good way to start giving your immune system the upper hand. While some people age healthily, the conclusion of many studies is that, compared with younger people, the elderly are more likely to contract infectious diseases and, even more importantly, more likely to die from them. Respiratory infections, influenza, the COVID-19 virus and particularly pneumonia are a leading cause of death in people over 65 worldwide. Scientists have long recognized that people who live in poverty and are malnourished are more vulnerable to infectious diseases. Whether the increased rate of disease is caused by malnutrition's effect on the immune system there is scientific evidence that various micronutrient deficiencies — for example, deficiencies of zinc, selenium, iron, copper, folic acid, and vitamins A, B6, C, E, D3, K, Colostrum and Psyllium Husk Etc. alter immune responses.Quit smoking with vitamin e
Vitamin E is an important antioxidant that can help in quitting smoking. It helps combat the free radicals and oxidative stress caused by cigarette smoke. Smoking depletes vitamin E levels in the body. Good food sources of vitamin E include wheat germ, vegetable oils, nuts, and green leafy vegetables. Taking vitamin E supplements or increasing dietary intake while quitting smoking can help reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, and other smoking-related illnesses by protecting cells from damage.
