Rancid foods are those in which the fats or oils in the foods are degraded or undergoing the degradation process. The more fats or oils a food contains, the greater the risk of it becoming rancid over time or in the presence of external factors such as heat. The dangers of rancid food include not only the decreased quality of the food but potential health hazards that may result from ingesting a rancid food. Hopee It Helps!
Antioxidants are substances that protect body cells and the immune system from damage that can be done by harmful chemicals in the air and in foods. Research suggests that antioxidants may help prevent certain diseases, including heart diseases and cancer.
An 'antioxidant' is a chemical that prevents oxidation (that is, the formation of oxygen compounds). Oils are particularly prone to oxidation, and are said to become 'rancid' when they do. Most people find the odor of rancid oil bad (or worse) and therefore it is considered very undesirable. Consequently, it is quite common to add antioxidants to oils (oily foods). Some oils, such as Olive Oil, contain natural antioxidants and are relatively resistant to oxidation without the addition of artificial antioxidants. (Note that there are other causes of rancidity besides oxidation.)
Cocoa Bean's are rich in antioxidants. about 20%of its mas.
Foods and herbs that help protect cells from damage(and hence reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer)are rich in ANTIOXIDANTS;examples include garlic,ginger,green tea,broccoli,tomatoes,strawberries,carrots and spinach.
Foods vary in the amount of antioxidants that they contain. Some foods that are high in antioxidants include red beans, wild blueberries, kidney beans, pinto beans, and cranberries.

Foods that are enriched with nutraceuticals, antioxidants, and secondary metabolites to improve the physical performance of the body.
