You probably know that antioxidants are important for your health. I believe antioxidants are your body's #1 way to neutralize free radicals and help you potentially slow down the signs of normal aging.* Oxidation by free radicals can damage cells and organs -- and thus impact your aging process* -- something I’m sure you’d rather put the brakes on. Antioxidants are also key nutrients in: - Supporting your memory function*
- Promoting your heart health*
- Boosting your immune system*
Turmeric's antioxidants help protect your cells from free radical damage.* The antioxidant content within turmeric comes from active compounds called curcuminoids. These curcuminoids deliver antioxidants that may be: - 5 to 8 times stronger than vitamin E -- and also stronger than vitamin C
- 3 times more powerful than grape seed or pine bark extract
- Strong enough to scavenge the hydroxyl radical -- considered by many to be the most reactive of all oxidants*
