Taking care of our bodies is one of the most important daily tasks we have to ensure ourselves a long and healthy life. A simple and easy way to provide ourselves with much needed protection from aging too quickly is to take care of our skin. Ironically, most of us are too busy with our lives to stop and take preventative measures of our aging process. With just a little amount of education and time, one can learn the benefits of antioxidants and how they can help prevent the premature aging of our skin and our bodies.

The human body is constantly aging through oxidative damage within our bodies by ‘free radicals'. When our bodies use oxygen, cells naturally produce free radicals, or byproducts, which can cause damage. Free radicals are unstable oxygen molecules that have one electron instead of two. Because electrons are found in pairs, the molecule scavenges other molecules for another electron. This process causes damage to cell function and alters genetic material. Free radicals also occur when food is broken down, or by environmental exposures to tobacco smoke and radiation. UV radiation from the sun is also ...
... one of the major creators of free radicals. Heart disease, muscular degenerations, diabetes, and cancer are just a few health problems that are all contributed by oxidative damage from free radicals. Our bodies fight free radicals internally with antioxidants.

There are a number of anti-aging products for skin care that offer potent antioxidant protection against the free radicals of UV radiation. For 24-hour protection, RevaleSkinâ„¢ Day Cream and Night Cream contain an exclusive formula of the most powerful naturally occurring antioxidant found today - coffeberry extract.

SkinMedica Vitamin C Complex is a fragrance-free concentrated formula that contains stabilized Vitamin C in both water- and fat-soluble forms. It provides extraordinary antioxidant protection, helps promote cell renewal and improve the appearance of skin tone, texture and firmness.

C & E Serum Advance+ from iS Clinical is a powerful antioxidant formula that contains a 15% concentration of scientifically-advanced, stabilized vitamin C, combined with vitamin E to synergistically provide more than four times the benefit of vitamin C alone. It provides enhanced UV photo- and antioxidant protection.

Prevage MD anti-aging treatment contains idebenone 1%, a powerful antioxidant that protects the skin cells in your body from environmental stressors of UV light, air pollution, ozone and cigarette smoke. Prevage MD anti-aging treatment will help correct the skin damage you already have and protect you from future damage. The antioxidative power of Prevage MD has shown to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, roughness and dryness, and reduce the signs of skin aging in only four weeks.

Sun protection at any age is important in the prevention of short-term and long-term damaging effects of UV radiation free radicals from sunlight. Antioxidants help prevent and slow down the effects of cancer, heart disease and other health risks that may shorten your life drastically. You can also prevent free radicals from UV radiation by actively using sunscreen when exposed to the sun.
