What are the benefits of taking an antioxidant supplement?
Taking an antioxidant supplement can keep one from sickness. This type of supplement can eliminate free radicals from attacking the immune system. Antioxidants reduce the number of oxidation reactions, which generate free radicals that can start chain reactions to damage cells. They are commonly used in preservatives. While antioxidant supplements have been linked to reduced cancer and coronary heart disease, the most recent large clinical trials have not shown any benefits (and in some cases harm in large quantities). The body's immune system relies on oxidation reactions and antioxidant supplements can therefore have negative effects on immunity.
