The Role of Antioxidants in Your Wellness Journey
“Antioxidants” refers to substances that help protect cells and minimise damage caused by free radicals—compounds that attack healthy cells and can lead to DNA damage. Our body naturally produces free radicals through everyday activities like breathing, converting food into energy, and physical activity. However, free radicals can also arise from lifestyle choices such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and unhealthy eating, as well as environmental factors like pollution, pesticides, and sun exposure. Antioxidants play a vital role in neutralising free radicals, especially when their levels in the body become excessive. This balance is crucial in preventing oxidative stress, which can contribute to chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease, and premature aging.
