How Do Antioxidants Protect The Skin?

Antioxidants boost your immune system by stabilizing free radicals before they can weaken the skin. Antioxidants are often called free-radical scavengers because they hunt free radicals and then fix them by giving up one of their electrons. They make the free radical whole without becoming unstable themselves.

What Are Free Radicals?

Free radicals are electrons that have become separated from molecules or atoms through a chemical change called oxidation. Once alone, the electrons are unsteady and search the body looking to join other electrons or steal one. Their actions of leaving and joining can create further unbalance and damage DNA.

The effects of oxidation on the skin include wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, rough skin texture and more. Examples of oxidation in nature include browning of fruit and rust on metal.
