Antioxidants
Antioxidants are the substances that protect your body cells against the harmful effects of unstable molecules, called free radicals. Free radicals, which are a by-product of energy metabolism and are formed in the body excessively during stress or strenuous exercise, may cause extensive damage to your body cells. The radicals are also acquired from the environment, produced due to pollution, smoke (including that of cigarette), etc. The radicals lead to serious degenerative diseases such as Cancer, Diabetes, Cataract, and heart problems (especially Atherosclerosis) to name some. The radicals also damage cellular membranes, including disturbing the lipids, proteins, & vitamins present therein, leading to premature aging. Our modern day life ironically, is full of stress, worries, and fatigue. In order to therefore, survive through the free radicals pool, you need to partake foods rich in antioxidants, or antioxidants supplements. These antioxidants sources limit the formation of free radicals, and oxidize the ones present, thereby stabilizing the body. The ensuing discussion provides an insight into some very effective antioxidant supplements offered at VitaDigest.
Green Tea. Green tea contains four primary Polyphenols (Catechins), and the EpiGalloCatechin Gallate (EGCG) antioxidants. These Catechins boost the body’s immune system, metabolism, fat loss, and energy levels, while slowing down the aging process, and reducing appetite, cholesterol levels, & blood pressure. EGCG considerably protects the body cells and DNA from free radical damage. Green Tea Extract from Source Natural, Lean Green from Primaforce, Lean Tea Complex with Bioperine from Optimum, Green Tea Extract from NOW, Green Tea Extract from K-Max, and Green Tea Extract from Jarrow are the available green tea supplements at VitaDigest.
Grape Extract. Grapes Seeds, especially those of Red Grapes, contain antioxidants that prevent bad LDL cholesterol from being oxidized by free radicals and clog arteries. However, our body cannot assimilate these antioxidants in their natural form. To fill up this dietary gap, you need supplements containing Grape Seed Extracts. The Grape Extracts usually have a blend of powerful antioxidants such as resveratrol, proanthocyanidins, flavonoids, and polyphenols. The formulas also promote capillary health. Some of the best selling products at VitaDigest in this category are French Grape Extract from Doctor's Best, Activin Grape Seed Extract from Natrol, Grape Seed Extract from Twinlab, Grape Seed Extract from MRM, and OPCs + 95 from Jarrow.
Beta Carotene. Beta Carotene is provitamin A, which is converted to Vitamin A in the body as and when required. Vitamin A is vital for promoting healthy hair & skin, and sound vision. Beta Carotene also boosts the body’s immunity, as it is an antioxidant and neutralizes any singlet oxygen molecules & free radicals present in the body. Although Beta Carotene is available in yellow and orange colored natural foods, however they may not always be readily accessible. It therefore, becomes necessary to fill the antioxidants gap in our food with the specific supplement.
Vitamin E. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant as it is one of the prime scavengers of free radicals and protects the body cells & tissues from their harmful effects, including delaying aging. This fat-soluble vitamin also helps in strengthening the body’s immune function, cardiovascular system, & blood circulation, repairing damaged DNAs, protecting the liver from toxins, and improving other metabolic processes (especially that of lipids). Vitamin E formulas are usually a unique blend of complete Vitamin E-family consisting of Vitamin E, all four tocopherols including Gamma & D-alpha tocopherol, and their four corresponding tocotrienols. E-Gems Elite from Carlson, Ester-E from Source Naturals, Toco-Sorb from Jarrow, and Famil E from Jarrow are some key products in the category.
Oxydrene from Novex. This compound empowers a human body by saturating the body’s tissues & cells (including that of blood) with oxygen. Oxydrene boosts your energy, endurance, & fast recovery, and delays exhaustion & low oxygen level induced muscles fatigue.
Glutathione. Glutathione, a tripeptide amino acid produced in the liver, is a sulfur rich intracellular antioxidant, which detoxifies the body, helps in the amino acids carriage, recycles vitamins C and E, produces coenzymes, and inhibits the cells & tissues damage by free radicals. Other popular products in this category are Glutathione Reduced from Jarrow, N-A-C Sustain From Jarrow, Glutathione From NOW Foods, and N-Acetyl Cysteine from Source Naturals.
Multivitamins. These multinutrient formulas accelerate metabolism, energy generation, and fat loss for overall health. ABC & Tea from Nutraceutics (a drink mix of Vitamins A, B, & C with Green Tea), Natural Extracts Diet from Irwin Naturals, and Super Antioxidants from Optimum are some highly effective antioxidant supplements available at VitaDigest.
