Antioxidants

 

Air pollution, tobacco smoke and ozone, as well as pesticides, dietary fats and heavy exercise can produce unstable substances in the body called free radicals. Research has established that excess free radicals can damage healthy cells.

Our bodies naturally suppress free radicals with vitamins A, C, E and the mineral Selenium. These antioxidants neutralize highly reactive molecules. Carlson ACES provides a four point attack by providing four preferred sources of natural antioxidants in an easy-to-swallow soft gel.

Beta-Carotene (pro-Vitamin A) quenches singlet oxygen molecules. Vitamin C helps protect tissues and blood components. Vitamin E helps protect cell membranes. Selenium is a vital part of antioxidant enzymes. Together, they "mop-up" free radicals as they form.
