Detailed explanation-1: -Examples of antioxidants include vitamins C and E, selenium, and carotenoids, such as beta-carotene, lycopene, lutein, and zeaxanthin.
Detailed explanation-2: -Vitamin C prevents the pro-oxidant activity of vitamin E by decreasing the activity of -tocopheroxyl radical to -tocopherol, thereby acting as a co-antioxidant and further contributing to increased total antioxidant status and reduced oxidative stress.
Detailed explanation-3: -Vitamin C is also vital to your body’s healing process. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps protect your cells against the effects of free radicals-molecules produced when your body breaks down food or is exposed to tobacco smoke and radiation from the sun, X-rays or other sources.
Detailed explanation-4: -Vitamin A (retinol, retinoic acid) is a nutrient important to vision, growth, cell division, reproduction and immunity. Vitamin A also has antioxidant properties.
