Anti - Oxidants: The Body needs Oxygen, but Oxygen is dangerous and all foods, Fats, Proteins or Carbohydrates contain Carbon, Hydrogen and a small amount of Oxygen as Triglycerides, Fatty Acids & Glycerol, Amino Acids & Glucose. The Energy from these foods is required to digest food and absorb Glucose, Fatty Acids, and Amino Acids are released. (2) Heat Energy is released by burning the smaller Molecules, and then made available to every Cell in the Body. Oxygen is needed to do this and as the Body is also already made from these it is important that the Body is not also effected. If it is, Disease, particularly Degenerative Disease, including Cancer, could result. Anti - Oxidants protect the Body from the harmful effects of Oxygen and allow the Oxygen to release the Energy from the food to the Cells by improving the Metabolism of Fats & Carbohydrates.
