Antioxidants
Many scientists believe that the root cause of aging, or at
least a contributing factor, is the damage caused to the cells of our bodies by
highly unstable and reactive atoms known as free radicals. Normally, electrons
surrounding the nucleus of an atom are in pairs. Oxidative processes in our
body, such as converting food to energy, causes some of these atoms to lose an
electron, turning them into free radicals…that is, an atom with an upaired
electron in its outer ring. As electrons have a strong bias to exist in pairs,
rather than singly, the free radical will steal the electron it needs from
another normal atom, turning the normal atom into a free radical, and starting a
chain reaction of free radical formation.
The lipids that make up cell
membranes, and DNA inside the mitochondria of cells appear to be susceptible to
contributing to this chain reaction, which, over time can cause impairments in
cell function. If enough damage is cause, the cell can die.
Antioxidants
are substances that are able to slow down or break the chain reaction of free
radical formation, by their ability to donate a single electron to a free
radical without becoming unstable themselves. This group of substances include
Vitamin A (Retinol, Beta Carotene), Vitamin C, Vitamin E (Tocopherol), Lycopene,
and Ubiquinone (CoQ10). As well, flavanoids and polyphenols, rich in plant
species such as Ginko biloba, green tea, and blueberries, have exhibited strong
anti-oxidative properties. Other substances which have shown ant-oxidant
properties, or help support the antioxidative process includes L-cysteine,
L-gluthionine, alpha lipoic acid, and the trace elements selenium, zinc and
manganese.
