“Look and feel younger!” “Reverse the aging process!” “Boost your energy!” What could possibly do all that? — antioxidants, devoted pill-poppers will tell you, despite the fact that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has prohibited manufacturers from claiming that consuming their antioxidant products will reduce disease risk.

Each year, countless hopeful Americans shell out billions of dollars on antioxidant supplements (nearly $2 billion, in fact, just on beta carotene and vitamins C and E), believing they will dramatically lower their risk of cancer, heart disease, and memory loss. Most experts agree, however, that taking antioxidants is not a shortcut to good health or the answer to staying young. So, where does that leave us?

In this article, you’ll learn the truth about antioxidants: what they are, how they function, how much of them you need, where to find the best dietary sources, and what the latest scientific research shows.

What Are Antioxidants?

Is your Health Worth $2 per Day?

Make euforia the first part of your day

With our fast pace lifetstyles, and the over processing of foods, it can be difficult to get our daily allowance of antioxidants. Plant foods, such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, contain many antioxidants that are essential to human health.

With euforia, we can now start the day with a delicous superjuice packed with anti-oxidants and super foods for only $2 per ounce. (A 32 oz bottle of euforia costs ~ $60.)

Antioxidants are substances or nutrients in our foods which can prevent or slow the oxidative damage to our body. When our body cells use oxygen, they naturally produce free radicals (by-products) that can cause damage. Antioxidants act as “free radical scavengers” and hence prevent and repair damage done by these free radicals. Health problems such as heart disease, macular degeneration, diabetes, and cancer, are all contributed to oxidative damage. Antioxidants may also enhance immune defense and therefore lower the risk of cancer and infection.

Antioxidants are present in foods as vitamins, minerals, carotenoids, and polyphenols, among others. Many antioxidants are often identified in food by their distinctive colors such as the deep red of cherries and of tomatoes; the orange of carrots; the yellow of corn, mangos, and saffron; and the blue-purple of blueberries, blackberries, and grapes. The most well-known components of food with antioxidant activities are vitamins A, C, and E; ß-carotene; the mineral selenium; and more recently, the compound lycopene.

Recent findings in research and literature suggest that fruits and vegetables in combination have synergistic effects on antioxidant activities leading to greater reduction in risk of chronic disease, specifically for cancer and heart disease. The combination of powerful antioxidants and naturalsuper foods in euforia, along with the high bio-availability of Aloe Vera, make euforia one of the most powerful antioxidants superjuices ever created.

Mangosteen

Mangosteen

Mangosteen is another “superfruit” which possesses the high concentration of anti-oxidants that the body needs.  The fruit is grown in its natural habitat in Southeast Asia where for centuries it has been used as an alternative medicine to combat allergies, hypertension, slow the aging process, prevent thrombosis, and improve over all cardio-vascular health.  Along with its high concentration of anti-oxidants, mangosteen also contains essential vitamins that our body requires to function properly.  The list of vitamins includes: Vitamin B (1, 2, 6), vitamin C, vitamin E, folic acid, calcium, phosphorus, iron, manganese, and thiamine.  The fruit also contains at least 20 xanthones, which have been shown to neutralize free radicals due to their high level of anti-oxidant activity.
