‘Free Radical’ scavengers are broadly called ‘Antioxidants’. In the ‘Free Radical’ theory of the aging process, without ‘Antioxidants’ the body ages quicker then it's chronological age, reactive-oxygen-species-induced mutations of mitochondrial DNA accumulate and damage cellular integrity causing premature cellular death.
More important then “is my ORAC bigger then your ORAC”, is the role of an ‘Antioxidant’ to be located where the ‘Free Radical’ is at the same time. Since exogenous ‘Antioxidants’ in the body come from a wide spectrum of nutrients, it becomes equally important that the base nutrient of the ‘Antioxidant’ fulfills a required ‘Nutritional’ role after fulfilling it's ‘Antioxidant’ role.
In addition to our famous broad spectrum 'Antioxidant' formula Triple Strength Anti-Oxidant™, we have a full line of organ specific 'Antioxidant' dietary supplements. Each one addresses and supports the specific dietary health needs of a particular body area or organ system.
