What are the Best Sources of
       Antioxidants?
It is common to hear experts recommending foods rich in
  antioxidants such as astaxanthin, resveratrol, or beta-
  carotene, because of their health effects.


              There are two types of antioxidants:


Lipid-soluble antioxidants – including vitamin E and A, carotenoids,



   and lipoic acid – are present in your cell membranes, while
   water-soluble antioxidants (such as vitamin
   C, polyphenols, and glutathione) are found in your blood and
   the fluids around your cells.
The best sources of antioxidants are food, especially in their
   organic and unprocessed forms. These are more preferred than
   using oral antioxidant sources such as a vitamin A or an
   astaxanthin supplement.




Carotenoids are referred to as pigments because they induce color.
Vitamin A, carotene, and xanthophylls are carotenoids that give red
and yellow fruits their color.
Zeaxanthin and lutein, which are also pigments, are found in green
leafy vegetables such as spinach, kale, and egg yolks.

Astaxanthin, which is a popular carotenoid, is found in salmon and
krill. This antioxidant is actually responsible for turning these species
pink.
Another water-soluble antioxidant is anthocyanin. This nutrient
is found in berries such as bilberries and black currant. Nuts are
also good sources of antioxidants.




Vitamin E can actually be found in almonds. Peanuts are also
a good source of resveratrol, a type of polyphenol.
Apart from peanuts, raw cacao and red wine are other sources
of resveratrol. However, resveratrol is most concentrated in
muscadine grapes – specifically in their thick skin and seeds.

Other polyphenols are often concentrated in green tea. Vitamin
C, another lipid-soluble polyphenol, can be found in citrus fruits.
To maximize the benefits you can obtain from these foods, make
sure you avoid eating sugars and grainy foods.

You may also juice the organic fruits and vegetables to increase
your intake, especially if you consume the pulp. For more
information, you may do research on vitamins E and A, polyphenol
and resveratrol, carotenoid and astaxanthin benefits.
