I don' think there are negative side effects to too much anti oxidants!. Antioxidants get rid of the 'free radicals' in your system!. A free radical is created by things you eat/drink your body doesn't need!. (Bad stuff) And in most cases antioxidants are in things that are natural and good for you (blue berry's, dark chocolate), maybe you're sick!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Antioxidants remove compounds in your body called free radicals, which cause cell aging, and excess which are linked to cancer!. That's why many times you here that antioxidants are good for prevention of cancer!. They cannot cause a fever, although you can overdose by taking too much (which is true for almost anything, even water!)Www@Answer-Health@Com
They protect and help heal your body from foreign substances!. The chinese drink a lot of green tea (real green tea) and they have a higher longevity than americans I don't think anything bad will happen with too much!. Its just like when the body gets too many vitamins, they are exreted through urine!.!.so im sure the body will just balance everyything out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
