Many of us wonder what causes the aging signs on our faces and how we can prevent them. The biggest sign of aging is called “free-radical” damage and is caused by the presence of oxygen or any compound that contains an oxygen molecule, sunlight, and pollution.
The substances that impede or slows free-radical damage are called “Antioxidants”. They prevent the oxidative action of molecules. Many of these antioxidants can also exfoliate the already dead skin cells.
Many vitamins have antioxidant properties, including A, C, and E as do amino acids coenzymes such as Alpha Lipoic Acids.
Significant amounts of research have also established Green Tea and White Tea as possessing potent amounts of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory properties.
