The Role of Antioxidants in Good Health And Healthy Living
Copyright © 2007-2008 Cheryll Rice
Everyone has heard about the importance of a balanced diet for
maintaining good health. Similarly, everyone knows that they
should be getting exercise - or at the very least adding more
activity into their days. Getting a good night's sleep is
essential - without it, you'll find that your immune system
starts to slack off a bit and you put yourself at a greater risk
for catching a cold or coming down with the flu.
We all know what we should be doing, but let's be honest: very
few of us eat a balanced diet all of the time. Many of us make
the choice to take the elevator rather than the stairs and we try
to find a parking place that's as close as possible to our
destination rather than taking the opportunity to walk a little
further. We also tend to let stress, work, social gatherings and
more interfere with the amount of sleep that we're able to get
each night.
When we don't go the extra mile to take care of ourselves, and
when our immune systems start to falter because of it, we may not
feel it right away. Soon, sluggishness starts creeping in. This
sluggishness not only slows us down, it also ages us
prematurely.
Fortunately, there's something that we can do in order to
maintain our young living. We can maintain our youth simply by
adding antioxidants to our diet.
What are antioxidants? The simplest answer is that antioxidants
are the vitamins and minerals found in foods that serve to fight
off disease. The more complex answer is that antioxidants like
Vitamin C, Vitamin E, selenium, Vitamin A that are found in
fruits and vegetables. By making an effort to add antioxidants to
our diet, we can keep our young living going; we can keep
ourselves healthier longer.
Antioxidants are, in effect, sponges that soak up the free
radicals in our systems. By fighting the free radicals in our
bodies - free radicals that are the result of less healthy foods
that we eat, alcohol that we drink and smoke that we're exposed
to (whether we smoke cigarettes ourselves or are exposed to
second hand smoke from friends, family members who smoke,
neighbors in our apartment buildings or co-workers at the office)
- by adding more fruits and vegetables to our diet and by adding
young living essential oils, we are better able to maintain our
good health and reduce the risk of developing some cancers and
even heart disease and stroke.
Young living oils take the essential oils from lemons and oranges
and combine them with Ningxia wolfberries, juices from
blueberries and pomegranate, along with other nutrient sources.
Those who add antioxidants in this way will find that they:
* have increased energy; that they have regained a sense of
young living that doesn't come from caffeine or other stimulants
that effect you for a short while and then wear off leaving you
to crash even harder, feeling more tired than you had before,
and,
* help you to protect your body from the effects of a weakened
immune system that comes from a lack of adequate self care.
However, increased energy and a sense of better health aren't
the only reasons why young living oils are beneficial to your
body. The other reason is that the antioxidants serve to help
your body to work more effectively. From boosting your immune
function to helping your liver to better filter out toxins, from
improving your cardiovascular function to maintaining the health
of your eyes, you'll find that antioxidants along with you
living oils just help you to feel better.
While you may not always be able to make the time to eat balanced
meals, you may not always be able to make time for a run or for
time at the gym, you'll find that increasing the antioxidants in
your body with young living oils doesn't take much time but
still offers many of the same benefits. You'll also find that,
because the energy rush young living essential oils is all
natural and without stimulants, not only won't you crash out but
also your sleep cycle is less likely to be disrupted.
Are these essential oils the magic bullet to good health? Not
necessarily, but that doesn't mean they aren't the key to young
living.

have realized over the years that not everything we put into
our bodies comes out of our bodies, and as a result, our
health is at risk of the toxins that are left behind.
