What is Antioxidant and what does it do?

What is the most powerful 'natural' Antioxidant on the planet?

  • I understand Acai, Goji, and more recently Maqui are powerful antioxidants - but what tops them all?

  • Answer:

    Sean, You can check out www.pubmed.gov It is the U.S. National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health database. You can search on clove oil, goji, noni and all that stuff to see research on the products. I have found that ganoderma lucidum to be the most powerful and the most documented.

I believe some of the most powerful antioxidants are actually spices like cinnamon, turmeric, mustard seed, and cocoa. However, these aren't (and in many cases can't) generally eaten in large quantities so they can't be used as top-contributors. Concord Grape, Blueberry, and black cherry juices actually have more antioxidants than acai.

The best two are Natural Acai and Cupuacu Anti Aging. This are excellent antioxidants. From this two, Natural Acai is also intended to lose weight, so if I have to pick one, will be Cupuacu Anti Aging which is incredible effective and 100% natural.

Rooibos (Aspalathus linearis), Afrikaans for "red bush", is a broom-like member of the legume family of plants and is used to make a tisane (herbal tea). Although, it is sometimes spelled rooibosch in accordance with the Dutch etymology, "roy-boss" remains the correct pronunciation. This nitrogen-fixing shrub is also commonly called South African red tea or simply red tea or bush tea, the product has been popular in South Africa for generations and is now consumed in many countries. Rooibos is grown only in the Cedarberg area in the Western Cape of South Africa and around the villages Clanwilliam and Citrusdal, which are situated to the north of Cape Town in South Africa. Many efforts to cultivate rooibos in other areas or countries with similar climates have failed. Apparently enough, rooibos needs a very specific climate and soil to grow.
