Antioxidants have an effect of many age-related diseases, including:
Cancer
Cardiovascular disease
Cognitive impairment
Immune dysfunction
Cataracts
Macular degeneration
and Alzheimer's
Antioxidants seem to also slow the effects of aging in our skin and could be an important part of your beauty routine.
Dr. Oz shared a recipe for an Antioxidant Breakfast Smoothie a few weeks ago that looked delicious and simple to make.
Antioxidant Breakfast Smoothie
1/2 cup strawberries
1/2 cup raspberries
1/2 cup blueberries
1/2 cup blackberries
1 cup pomegranate juice
Mix it up in a blender and drink! I used some frozen fruit and some fresh to get that nice frozen smoothie texture.
Drink it out of a wine glass to add the fancy factor. Yep.
You go girl! You look younger and healthier already!
