Antioxidants and Skin Care - Great Food For Your Face

Adding blueberries to your morning oatmeal or muffin and cracking open a juicy pomegranate has now been proven to do more than just satisfy your taste buds. Clinical studies have shown that certain antioxidants will fight off free radicals which cause many types of cancers. Many free radicals are caused by environmental conditions such as pollution, herbicides and cigarettes which effect healthy cells in turn creating a ripe condition for the formation of certain cancers and heart disease.

Less extreme results of free radicals can be experienced in a breakdown of skin elasticity and resilience causing an increase in skin wrinkling and sagging. Clinical studies have shown that adding antioxidants to your diet help stave off free radical production and assist in the body’s ability to regenerate healthy skin cells. In addition, topical absorption of antioxidants creates a shield from the daily assault of these environmental conditions and prohibits pre-mature skin aging. The best prescription for fighting damage causing free radicals is a daily diet of healthy fruits and vegetables high in antioxidants and a protective application of antioxidant rich skin care.
