👉 Antioxidants are substances that can help protect your body from damage caused by free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can cause oxidative stress. These substances are found in foods like fruits and vegetables, as well as in various supplements and dietary sources. Some common antioxidants include vitamins C, E (also known as tocopherols), and lutein and zeaxanthin, which play crucial roles in maintaining healthy skin and eye health, reducing the risk of cancer, and protecting against oxidative stress.
