Antioxidants

What are antioxidants?

Antioxidants are molecules which prevent the damaging effects of oxygen free radicals in the body. The damage caused by oxygen free radicals is called oxidation. Examples of oxidation are bananas turning brown when left on the counter top,or the rusting of iron. Less than 10% of Americans are consuming the necessary fruits and vegetables recommended by the USDA to obtain the necessary antioxidants that their bodies need to fight off the damaging effects of free radicals.

How are antioxidants measured?

See this simple appele test

The antioxidants in any food are measured by its capacity to absorb free radicals. ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) values as determined by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture measure the capacity of a food to absorb oxygen free radicals. The USDA website recommends a Daily Antioxidant Intake Range of 3,000 to 5,000 ORAC. However, recent studies have suggested that more active lifestyles require higher levels of antioxidants. The chart above contains the ORAC values of several highantioxidant foods. Research now indicates that if we obtain on a daily basis at least 5,000 ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) our bodies in most cases will be able to fight off the damaging effects of free radicals.
