Free Radicals: What Do They Do?

Free radicals are nearly impossible to avoid since they are in the air. Instead, you can follow certain remedies to prevent excessive damage caused by free radicals. The primary form of damage prevention is antioxidants. Antioxidants allow the free radical to take an electron from it rather than from your skin.

The best forms of antioxidants are vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin E. These vitamins can either be consumed in certain foods or applied using a topical serum. There is a wide array of lotions, creams, and serums on the market today that provide your skin with the antioxidants it needs.
