The Facts About
Anti Aging Antioxidants

Extensive studies have been done on cell division
in the human body and these show that cells can
divide for a certain fixed number of times during
the lifetime of a human being. Based on these
studies scientists have concluded that most of the
cells in the body will have finished using about 50%
of their quota of cell-divisions by the time a person
reaches the age of 20. Furthermore, by the time a
person reaches the age of 40, the cells will have
used up about 70% of their cell-division quota and
have just 30% remaining. This explains why a
person undergoes the physical changes that they
do on the outside as well as the inside of the body
as they age.

When these cells eventually use up the cell
divisions that were naturally allotted to them, it
results in the death of the person. This is an
unavoidable occurrence that cannot be stopped.
However scientists have discovered a way that this process may be retarded. Researchers have raised
everyone’s hope by finally succeeded in finding a way to rejuvenate the lifespan of the cells and
rejuvenate them.

So what are the causes of aging?

In recent days a large amount of scientific research is focused on trying to find a solution to the age-old
dilemma of aging. From these studies it appears that the main culprits are free radicals- the higher the
number of radicals that are present in your body, the more rapidly your body ages.

Free radicals are unstable, harmful substances that are a product of oxidation, a process that occurs
naturally in the body. By themselves free radicals do not cause any harm. In fact, free radicals could
benefit your body in some ways. The only problem with them is that they are incapable of distinguishing
between harmful molecules and unhealthy molecules. This means that the possibility is very high that
your healthy cells could also be attacked by them, causing massive tissue damage as well as cellular
damage. This could eventually result in various chronic disorders or diseases, including aging.

Anti Aging Antioxidants – The Answer to Aging

The anti-aging-oxidants discovery has finally given Scientists a breakthrough in their continuous search
to find the perfect solution to aging.  Anti aging antioxidants are very distinct substances whole only
function is acting on free radicals and preventing them from causing any damage to cell tissues. Though
anti aging antioxidants substances that occur
naturally, the body is incapable of producing them
without any help. In fact human beings are depend-
ant on plants for getting their supply of anti aging
antioxidants.  

Vegetables such as carrots, squash, potatoes,
cabbages and cauliflower are the main sources of
vitamins that behave like anti aging antioxidants.

Antioxidants have in recent times become a hugely
popular buzzword. Everybody seems to credit
antioxidants with curing many different conditions
including aging and cancer.

So what exactly are these antioxidants that every-
body’s talking about? How do they help strengthen
or heal the human body? The theory behind the
working of antioxidants is easy to understand but
there is still some controversy regarding their efficacy.

The human body produces energy by metabolizing oxygen. This metabolic process forms free radicals
as a natural by-product. Free radicals are individual atoms or sometimes groups of atoms that have
unbalanced or unpaired electrons. These free radicals are volatile particles and they rob electrons from
other molecules and cells within the body, sometimes causing cell damage that manifests itself as
disease and aging.

Having free radicals present in the body is quite normal. It is when there are excessive quantities that
significant harm can be done. It is well known that exposure to pollution, excessive sunlight, radiation,
smoking and alcohol exaggerates the effects caused by free radicals and could lead to serious illness
and/or premature aging.
