The Best Antioxidant Supplements

Combat oxidative stress and protect cells from damage caused by free radicals

Eat your 5-a-day of fresh fruit and vegetables to lay the foundations of antioxidant defence.

Certain herbal supplements give a powerful boost to a diet that's already rich in antioxidant foods.

The right vitamins and minerals further boost the body's own biochemical defences.

Incorporating these antioxidant-rich herbs and supplements into your diet can help support overall health, protect against oxidative stress, and promote vitality.

As always, it's important to consult your doctor before starting new supplements, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking prescription medicines.

How to Boost Glutathione with Food

Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant naturally produced by the body, and it's also found in some foods, particularly certain vegetables.

Cruciferous vegetables like cabbage, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and cauliflower are among the top sources of glutathione. Other vegetables like spinach, asparagus, and avocados also contain significant amounts of glutathione, as well as onions, garlic and leeks.

These vegetables are not only rich in glutathione but also contain compounds that support the body's own production of this antioxidant.

Cooking can affect glutathione levels in food. Steaming is the best way to preserve the antioxidant content of these vegetables.

Why is oxidative stress so dangerous?

Oxidative stress is associated with a range of medical problems and chronic conditions due to the damage caused by free radicals to cells, proteins, and DNA.

Aging: Oxidative stress leads to progressive decline of cellular function and tissue integrity.

Cardiovascular Diseases: Oxidative stress can contribute to the development and progression of heart diseases, including atherosclerosis, hypertension, and heart failure.

Neurodegenerative Diseases: Conditions like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis have been linked to oxidative damage in the brain.

Diabetes: Oxidative stress can impair insulin signalling and contribute to insulin resistance, a key factor in the development of type 2 diabetes.

Inflammatory Conditions: Chronic inflammation, such as in rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease, become worse when the body is under oxidative stress.

Cancer: High levels of oxidative stress can damage DNA and increase the risk of mutations that may lead to cancer development.

Lung Diseases: Conditions like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and lung fibrosis can be aggravated by oxidative stress-induced inflammation.

Liver Diseases: Oxidative stress can contribute to liver damage and the development of liver diseases like fatty liver disease, hepatitis, and cirrhosis.

Eye Diseases: Oxidative stress is a factor in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), cataracts, and other vision-related disorders. Cataracts are found in eyes with very low levels of glutathione, the "master antioxidant".

Skin Aging and Disorders: Oxidative stress plays a role in skin aging, wrinkles, and the development of skin conditions like acne, eczema, and psoriasis.
