Anti-Aging Antioxidants - How Vitamins Can Defeat Age

Article Title:

Article Body:

Antioxidant properties to prevent cancer are well known, but did you know that 
there are anti-aging antioxidants? We all want to feel and look young, for as 
long as possible and antioxidants can help to defeat age. Find out what are the 
most important antioxidants for antiaging.
Common mushrooms contain anti-aging antioxidants. According to the study by 
Penn State University eating ordinary white-bottom mushrooms regularly, can 
prevent cancer and cardiovascular diseases, as well as have significant anti-aging 
effect. These mushrooms are an excellent source of ergothioneine, a powerful 
anti-aging antioxidant.
Ergothioneine and Free Radicals
Free radicals are one of the main causes for aging because they cause cell 
damage. Several types of antioxidants are effective to neutralize them. Ergothioneine 
is one of the best to fight free radicals that is why it is an important antioxidant 
for antiaging. Recently wheat germ was considered an essential source for this 
antioxidant, but apparently mushrooms contain twelve times more ergothioneine. 
So adding mushrooms to your salads or meat dishes can be a great source of anti-aging 
antioxidant.
Antiaging antioxidant supplements
You can find many antioxidant dietary supplements for anti-aging. A very popular 
one is Lifespan Extension Complex that contains 120 capsules of Acetyl-L-Carnitine, 
Alpha Lipoic Acid as well as Bioperine. It claims to boost your immune system, 
give you additional energy and vitality. Its anti-aging formula is proven to 
reduce brown spots making your skin look younger. It is also claims to reduce 
deterioration of brain cells, which happens as we age.
Most anti-aging antioxidant supplements contain large doses of Vitamin E, ethoxyquin 
and BHT. While doctors still debate about the effect of Vitamin E on aging, 
the positive effects of ethoxyquin and BHT are proven. 
You have to remember that it is best to consult your doctor before taking any 
anti-aging supplements. Even the greatest antioxidants can be toxic in large 
doses, and since most of them are not water soluble, you should never take too 
much.
Antioxidants for younger looking skin
The skin is what really gives your age away. And to keep it young and healthy 
looking, you don't need any special supplements. Natural antioxidants found 
in many foods, can help your skin look younger. While scientists are still not 
sure if Vitamin E has real effect on anti-aging, it is well known that this 
powerful antioxidant is beneficial for the skin. The same can be said about 
Vitamins A and C.
There are many antiaging creams with vitamins and antioxidants. But it is important 
to eat antioxidants, rather than just use creams with them. Most brightly colored 
fruits and berries contain antioxidants to prevent premature aging of your skin. 
Regularly include strawberries, blueberries, cherries, oranges, grapefruits 
and grape in your diet and you will see how healthy and bright your skin looks.
