What exactly are antioxidants and how can they protect my body?!


Question:

What exactly are antioxidants and how can they protect my body?

I have heard a lot about antioxidants which act as a shield for our body. How can I get more of these? What exactly are they and how can they protect my body?


Answers:

Antioxidants are just what you said, a "shield for our body." They boost our immune system and keep us from getting sick. They are found in healthy foods like blueberries, strawberries, cranberries, most veggies, and even in dark chocolate. (dark, not milk). Good question!
