An antioxidant is a molecule that can prevent chain reactions that are dangerous to the body that are triggered by free radicals.
Antioxidants act as a natural shield for the body.
Vitamin C is one of the most famous and best non-enzymatic antioxidants.
Foods containing vitamin C include black currants, rose hips, kiwi, bell peppers, citrus fruits, spinach and greens.
Any tea is useful in some way, but it is believed that green varieties contain the most antioxidants.
And this has really been proven by scientists. For example, Matcha tea powder has three times more antioxidants than classic green tea.
Mate and Ivan tea drinks have the greatest antioxidant activity.
Brief information about other lesser-known tea-like drinks is provided: kudin, lapacho, Tibetan tea, buckwheat tea, Kuril tea, hemp tea, artichoke tea, Tuareg tea, purple tea, Himalayan tea and others.
Antioxidants counter the damage caused by free radicals. Therefore, they protect your cells and help prevent disease.
Nuts are beneficial not only for muscles, hair, and immunity due to the content of fats, amino acids and vitamins, but they are also excellent cell protectors from free radicals.
The most antioxidants are found in hazelnuts, walnuts, almonds, and pistachios.
