Regardless of Age or Gender, Have You Mastered the Essential Course of "Antioxidation"?

Regardless of Age or Gender, Have You Mastered the Essential Course of "Antioxidation"?

In this era of pursuing youth and vitality, we are often amazed by the radiance of women in their 50s and 60s. Celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry, and Angela Bassett seem to have turned back the clock with their glowing skin. What's their secret? It lies in something simple yet powerful—"antioxidation," a balance of internal regulation and external nourishment.

In fact, antioxidation is not just a woman's affair. It is an essential course for everyone, regardless of gender or age. From the "light salads" popular among office workers to bestselling fruit and vegetable juices like Naked Juice, Suja Juice, and Pressed Juicery, we constantly engage in the battle against oxidative free radicals. Antioxidation not only brightens the skin and removes dullness, but it also helps fade spots, revitalizing the skin’s natural glow.

In the post-pandemic era, the impact of antioxidation on our health is even more profound. It boosts immunity, prevents cardiovascular diseases, controls chronic inflammation, and reduces the risks associated with oxidative stress. Neglecting antioxidation can increase the likelihood of illness, chronic fatigue, and accelerate the aging process. Antioxidation happens at every moment in our lives, faster and more intensely than we realize. It has truly become a required course for maintaining a healthy lifestyle!


1. What is Antioxidation? The Connection Between Oxidation, Aging, and Cells

Antioxidation is the process of combating the damage caused by free radicals, while oxidation reactions are constantly occurring in our bodies, faster and more intensely than we might imagine. Just like how a sliced apple turns brown when exposed to air, our body cells are continuously under oxidative attack. This not only affects external factors, like skin aging and slower metabolism, but also threatens internal health, such as the accumulation of AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products) in the cardiovascular system. 【1】【2】【3】

Under normal conditions, there is a dynamic balance between the production and elimination of free radicals within cells. However, as we age, this balance gradually becomes disrupted, leading to an accumulation of free radicals. This accumulation causes cell apoptosis (death) and accelerates aging, weakening the body's immune system【4】. Antioxidants can neutralize free radicals, building a natural barrier to safeguard our health and boost immunity.

Therefore, regardless of age or gender, it is crucial to consume sufficient antioxidants daily. For example, kale, which is widely popular in workplace "light meals" and hailed as a "superfood," is rich in powerful antioxidants like beta-carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin. Through a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle, we can effectively combat oxidation, slow down aging, and protect both our physical and mental well-being.



2. The Role of Diet in Antioxidation

Antioxidation Benefits

  1. Boosting Immunity:
    Antioxidants neutralize free radicals in the body, preventing their accumulation, which can cause cell death and aging. This helps maintain immune function and enhances the body's overall resistance.
  2. Preventing Cardiovascular Diseases:
    Oxidative stress is one of the main triggers of cardiovascular diseases. Sufficient antioxidants can neutralize excess free radicals, protecting endothelial cells from oxidative damage. This reduces the formation of atherosclerosis, effectively lowering the risk of cardiovascular issues. 【5】
  3. Controlling Chronic Inflammation:
    Antioxidants can neutralize excess free radicals, reducing inflammation triggered and worsened by oxidative stress. This helps in tissue repair and restores health. 【3】
  4. Delaying Aging:
    Free radicals accelerate cellular aging, but antioxidants neutralize these harmful molecules, aiding in maintaining youthful skin and body functions. 【2】
  5. Protecting Brain Health:
    By neutralizing free radicals, antioxidants reduce oxidative stress on neurons, preventing neurodegenerative diseases and helping slow down cognitive decline. 【6】

Antioxidants with Anti-Inflammatory, Antibacterial, and Anticancer Properties

  • Antioxidants such as pterostilbene and resveratrol play significant roles in promoting health 【6】. Resveratrol, found abundantly in grape skins and red wine, helps inhibit tumor growth, enhances immunity, and combats viral infections. Pterostilbene, primarily sourced from grape seeds and tea leaves, suppresses free radicals, reduces oxidative damage, lowers blood lipids, and helps prevent cardiovascular diseases. Often regarded as a superior form of resveratrol, pterostilbene has four times the bioavailability of resveratrol, demonstrating greater metabolic stability and stronger antioxidant activity, thus offering additional benefits for health and anti-aging.

 

  • Lycopene, a type of carotenoid, is known for its strong antioxidant properties, effectively scavenging free radicals and protecting against oxidative damage. Numerous studies have shown that adequate intake of lycopene plays a significant role in preventing cardiovascular diseases【7】. However, raw tomatoes have low lycopene absorption rates, and lycopene oxidizes quickly, making it difficult to preserve. There are few high-purity and stable lycopene supplements available on the market. Longevitan Green Essence is rich in various high-concentration, naturally sourced antioxidants, with each nutrient protected by patented coating technology. Each capsule contains 15 mg of tomato extract (naturally sourced) lycopene, equivalent to approximately 300 g of tomatoes, ensuring high absorption rates!
