In all living organisms there is a delicate balance between the production of free radicals and their elimination by antioxidant defense systems. The disruption of this balance, referred to as “oxidative stress,” causes the onset of cellular lesions that, if serious and prolonged over time, lead to an acceleration of the aging process and the onset of numerous diseases.
The causes of increased production of free radicals are varied: pollution, lifestyle and poor diet, alcohol, smoking, inappropriate physical exercise, psycho-emotional stress, diseases, trauma, inflammation, infections, vascular diseases, neoplasms, drug therapy. In good health, our body is able to prevent damage from free radicals thanks to the natural defense system made up of antioxidants, so called because they counteract the oxidizing action of free radicals (bad oxygen). A reduced effectiveness of this system is essentially due to an absolute or relative deficit of antioxidants however determined. Antioxidants inhibit the damaging effect on all cells of oxygen free radicals that prevent the regeneration and reproduction of cells and, even more, accelerate the aging process. Polyphenols contained in fruit and vegetables are the most powerful natural antioxidants.
A review of many published clinical studies on the effect of fruit and vegetable consumption on health has shown an inverse association between dietary polyphenol intake and the risk of cardiovascular disease, with a reduction in cardiovascular mortality of up to 65%. Polyphenols can therefore prevent cardiovascular diseases, the main cause of aging and death.
