The Ultimate Antioxidant "Beginner's Guide" ! Jul 23, 1999
By Wayne Wasserman "All About Antioxidnts" is a "must read" for anyone who is serious about preventing, delaying and even reversing many of the 'degenerative' diseases (coronary artery disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease, etc) that are due to destructive free radicals.Dr. Passwater, who is one of the world's leading nutritional biochemical researchers, explains what free radicals are, what they do to the human body and how antioxidants help to prevent & even reverse free radical damage. Every person, no matter how young or old they are, no matter how healthy they think they are, needs to understand that free radicals in the human body are unavoidable (even necessary for the immune system to fight off disease). In this day & age of "hydrogenated oils" in our foods, chemicals in our drinking water & polluted air, your body is exposed to massive amounts of heart disease, cancer and Alzheimer's disease- causing free radicals. Dr. Passwater explains what the most powerful & best researched antioxidants are, as well as how they function and work together as a "team" to protect against dreaded diseases. "All About Antioxidants" makes a great 'beginner's guide' for anyone interested in learning about the true benefits of these essential nutrients. If you want more detailed information about the individual antioxidants discussed in "All About Antioxidants",which ones to use to treat specific health problems, as well as dosaging information, I recommend you take a look at the following books - "The Healing Power of Vitamins, Minerals and Herbs" (Reader's Digest) and "Dr. Atkins Vita-Nutrient Solutions" (Firestone, Simon & Schuster).
