The Best Antioxidant Supplements
Antioxidant supplements fall into two categories.
- Antioxidant nutrients from which our bodies make antioxidant molecules which bind to ROS and deactivate them.
- Antioxidant herbs and botanicals that containready-made antioxidant molecules.VitaBright offers a wide range of antioxidant supplements, as well as some money-saving bundles and multi-buys.
The Core Four Antioxidant Supplements
NAC (N Acetyl Cysteine) - Antioxidant nutrient
N-acetyl cysteine is a vital and powerful antioxidant supplement that directly boosts glutathione, the human body's "master antioxidant" molecule. NAC feeds into our natural antioxidant enzyme system to create this powerful molecule which scavenges illness-causing free radicals throughout the body.
Quercetin - Antioxidant botanical supplement
Quercetin is one of the most effective plant-based antioxidants called flavonoids, which neutralise harmful free radicals (oxygen molecules) in the body. It's also been studied for its anti-inflammatory effects and potential benefits for heart health, immune function, and overall well-being.
Zinc - Antioxidant nutrient
Zinc plays a core role in antioxidant activity as well as immune function, helping to protect cells from oxidative stress and supporting cellular repair.
Turmeric - Antioxidant botanical supplement
Curcumin, the active compound in Turmeric, is a powerful botanical antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties. It helps neutralise free radicals and supports joint, brain, and cardiovascular health.
The Best Botanical Antioxidants
Ashwagandha Root (Pure KSM-66 Extract)Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb that contains flavonoids, phenolic acids and other natural antioxidants. It's very popular to help deal with periods of stress of long-term anxiety, help restore a healthy sleep cycle and boost energy.
Odourless Garlic softgels
The organic compound allicin – which gives garlic its great flavour – is a powerful antioxidant. For people who want to avoid garlic breath, our odourless gels make a healthy and powerful source of daily antioxidants. Garlic is also immune-boosting and helps kill bacteria andother microbes.
Lion's Mane Mushroom
Lion's mane mushroom contains powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds that may help reduce the impact of chronic illness. Ginkgo biloba also contains flavonoids and terpenoids that act as antioxidants. By defending against oxidative stress and improving circulation, they feed the brain cells with oxygen and reduce inflammation to maximise mental performance, memory and concentration.
The Best Vitamin and Nutrient Antioxidants
Omega 3 Fish Oil and Omega 3 6 9 Hemp Seed Oil
Rich in EPA and DHA, Omega-3 fatty acids help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, supporting brain, heart, and joint health.
Vitamin B Complex
Oxidative stress is inevitable without the vital B vitamins. Folate (B9), Riboflavin (B2), Niacin (B3) and Vitamin B6 are essential to support antioxidant enzyme function and protect us against oxidative stress.
Magnesium
Magnesium is not a direct antioxidant, but it plays an important supportive role in antioxidant function within the body.
Magnesium is essential for activating glutathione, one of the body's most powerful antioxidants, and it helps regulate oxidative stress by supporting mitochondrial function and reducing inflammation. It also stabilises cell membranes, protecting them from damage caused by free radicals.
While magnesium itself does not neutralise free radicals like vitamin C or quercetin, it is essential for the properfunction of many antioxidant enzymes and helps maintain cellular health. This makes it an important mineral for reducing oxidative stress and supportingoverall well-being.
