What can I do to reduce the harmful effects of free radicals on my body?

We cannot stop free radicals completely. Yet we can reduce their pro-inflammatory effect on the body by eating foods high in powerful antioxidants -- plant chemicals that scavenge and neutralize the free radicals. So far, the known antioxidants include vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, the carotenoids, which have immune-boosting properties, and the flavonoids, plant compounds that reportedly have antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antitumor activities.

A deluge of scientific studies reveal that many compounds found in fruits, vegetables, and even whole grains also have antioxidant properties -- some more potent than others.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
