Foods with high levels of antioxidants

Posted on Apr 30th 2007 1:01PM by Brian White
Do you pay attention to the levels of antioxidants in the foods that you eat? Some do, and manufacturers of food products are increasingly labeling foods with the "antioxidant" label as a result.

Antioxidants battle the renegade "free radicals" that are naturally developed inside your body and which can cause damage to cells. But is the best way to get antioxidants featured in taking vitamins and supplements?

Hold that thought -- why not each foods already high in antioxidant levels? Foods like all those servings of fruits and vegetables (deep colors like orange, green and red) will give you an antioxidant boost that is great for ongoing positive health. Eat an apple for breakfast instead of a deep-fried doughnut if you can.
