Free Radicals and their Scavengers*
In this 50-minute webinar, we welcome Neil E. Levin, CCN, DANLA to explain what free radicals are and how free radical scavengers can minimize their impact on our health and our appearance.
Free radicals are unstable molecules that can disrupt the body’s internal balance, or homeostasis. They are molecules produced by our bodies during normal metabolic processes, such as the simple act of breathing; but they’re also produced due to exposure to external compounds such as pollutants, chemicals and other environmental agents. Although we can’t avoid free radicals, there are many free radical scavengers which are natural compounds that can help to neutralize the free radicals in our bodies.*
NOW Foods produces a variety of high quality free radical scavengers. We choose only proven, natural free radical scavengers and antioxidants that are supported by research, and every product we produce is manufactured with our industry-leading attention to quality. So no matter which you choose, you are sure to get a product you can trust.
