Antioxidants are molecules that protect cells and mucus membranes. They are helpful to protect and repair DNA. They control the cells' multiplication and metastasis. The free radicals usually come either from metabolism to produce energy on the inside, or from the interactions with the environment. The cell damages and irregular cells multiplications caused by free radicals can be controlled with antioxidants.
Common antioxidants include vitamin A, vitamin E, vitamin C, vitamin D, selenium (sulphur), bio-flavonoids (Ellagic acid, Quercetin, Rutin), hormones (Melatonin), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) etc.
Bioflavonoids are plant pigments responsible for the color of flowers, fruits, and sometimes leaves. They provide powerful protection against cancer and other diseases.
Catechins are a type of flavonoids found in apples, cherries, pears, cocoa, kolanut, tea, vinegar and wine. They are also helpful in dementia, Parkinsonism, and heat induced pain.
Beta-glucan (soluble polysaccharide) found in oats, barley and shiitake mushrooms. It has anti-cholesterol, anti-allergic (increased IgE), anti-infective and anti-radiation effects.
Chalcones are phenols related flavonoid compounds that present yellow flowers (Breast cancer). They are anti-microbial.
