Antioxidants

During normal cellular metabolism, oxygen creates damaging by-products called Free Radicals which have an increasingly bad effect on our skin as we grow older i.e. age us through creation of wrinkles.

Antioxidants protect the cells from the damage caused by Free Radicals by binding with them before they can cause the damage. Antioxidants are found in Vitamins A, C and E as well as many fruits, vegetables and oils.
