3) Natural Anti-Inflammatory
When feeling aches and pains, it’s the consequence of inflammation. Antioxidants stop the inflammation process at various stages. So whether you just injured yourself, or you have chronic inflammation, like arthritis, antioxidants can certainly help.

In fact, inflammation is what is responsible for causing just about every disease there is. It is a direct result of the oxidative stress that free radicals cause. So the natural anti inflammatory effects that antioxidants have are actually part of the whole “disease prevention” benefit.

4) Improve immune system
Our immunity is a complex collaborations of many different components. Specific antioxidants have been shown to improve specific parts of that system. So when we get the proper combination of antioxidants, we improve body immune system.

Pollution Problems
There are good explanations why antioxidant supplements have been in the news so much. As pollution has increased, so has the burden of body stress produced by free radicals. Industrial pollution, which contaminates our water, air, and food, has led to increased connection with free radicals and to an increased requirement for antioxidants.
