Defy Aging With These Powerful Antioxidants
< < < Death Perception
Antioxidants aid the body in the neutralization of free radicals that are harmful to the body. Because they enhance immune function, antioxidants are an excellent supplement to reduce the chances of illness and slow down the effects of aging.
Below we have listed a few antioxidants for your consideration. We will be featuring some more powerful free radical fighters further into the week.
Green Tea: Green tea's antioxidant capabilities lie mainly in its constituents, polyphenols. Green tea protects our DNA from mutations that occur in the presence of free radicals. It aids the immune system with its antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-aging characteristics.
Green tea differs from regular black tea in its processing. Black tea contains a diminished amount of polyphenols that are stripped during fermentation. Green tea, on the other hand, preserves these polyphenols, and the tea leaves have only been dried in the manufacturing process.
Bilberry: Bilberries are related to ordinary blueberries and are known for being strong supporters of arteries and veins. This antioxidant maintains the integrity of vessels and increases the flexibility of red blood cells, easing their transport in the blood.
Bilberry naturally lowers blood pressure and reduces the formation of clots that could lead to heart attack and stroke. It is also important in the maintenance of collagen and elastin structures in tissue, and its anti-aging effects extend to protection of the vision organ.
ConzymeQ10: Much like vitamin E, coenzymeQ10 plays a vital role in the extraction of energy via cell respiration. Similarly, it aids in the regeneration of tissue and increases the effectiveness of the cardiovascular system.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid: This is a strong antioxidant effective at maximizing the assimilation of vitamin E and vitamin C. ALA also enhances the production of gluthathione - another powerful antioxidant - and increases the assimilation of coenzymeQ10.
Ginko Biloba: Antioxidant that aids in the function of the heart and cardiovascular system, enhances functioning of the brain and the eyes. Used initially for its positive effects on memory and concentration, Ginko Biloba originally came from the Orient.
Do not use ginko biloba if you are taking medication for blood-clotting and/or OTC painkillers. Consult a doctor first, as this may lead to serious internal injury.

BONUS : Delay Aging with These Herbs
Use echinacea to protect the immune system. Astralagus can be also used for the same purposes. Avoid these if you have an auto-immune disorder, as these can worsen the condition severely.
Dandelion is known to enhance liver function and production of bile.
Use burdock root to eliminate toxins from the blood. Red clover is also efficient in the cleansing of the blood.
Noni has recently become more and more popular. A Hawaiian plant, noni has been used for centuries in the treatment of inflammation of the joints and the calming of joint pain. Noni is also effective at balancing digestive function, enhancing circulation, and strengthening the immune system.
Also used for anti-inflammatory purposes, licorice root supports the functioning of many vital organs and tissues alike. Do not use licorice root if you have high blood pressure, as your condition can easily worsen.
For pains associated with arthritis, nettle is consumed to reduce inflammation. Due to its soothing, anti-inflammatory properties, nettle is also useful in the treatment of urinary tract infections and prostate swelling.
To enhance sleep induction and improve sleep patterns, use St. John's Wort or valerian root. They are known for their calming properties, and are also utilized to reduce anxiety associated with depression.
Garlic is a popular antioxidant. It enhances our ability to fight disease, improving the immune system and supporting cardiac function.
Wild yam is perhaps the most well-known anti-aging herb. It is famous for its rejuvenating properties. A natural source of steroids, wild yam enhances the production and regeneration of muscle tissue, reducing fat deposits and accumulation beneath the lowest layer of the skin. Naturally found in the body as DHEA, wild yam should not be taken for longer than two weeks per month.
