    Free radicals are waste products resulting from metabolism in the body, or it can be said that free radicals are the rust of the cells in our body. If the body has too many free radicals, it may lead to problems such as inflammation, especially with the cardiovascular system. It may cause issues like cerebral artery constriction, heart ischemia, and Alzheimer’s. In other systems, it may lead to arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome. If there are too many free radicals in the structure of the skin tissue system, it may cause aging, wrinkling, and sagging of the skin faster and more extensively than others.

    Our body has its own mechanism for eliminating free radicals called “Antioxidants,” which are derived from vitamins, minerals, and nutrients present in the body. If the body receives enough of these nutrients, there will be a significant effect from antioxidants, preventing free radicals from harming our body.

    But the bigger problem is that nowadays we cannot get enough antioxidants because if we need an adequate amount of important nutrients, we must consume large quantities of fruits and vegetables, and importantly, they must be free of genetic modification or pesticides, which are hard to find. Along with aging, it causes a decrease in the absorption of essential nutrients. Therefore, taking vitamins and minerals that act as antioxidants such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Vitamin D, Vitamin B, Bioflavonoid, and Astaxanthin is very necessary to help eliminate these free radicals. However, these must be high-quality and effective vitamins and derived from natural extracts that cannot be bought from typical pharmacies but can be found in hospitals with specialized departments in this field to keep our bodies free from rust, ensuring smooth functioning of various systems, reducing cell aging, promoting good health, protecting from diseases, and preventing other age-related ailments.
