Solgar Advanced Antioxidant Formula is an antioxidant formula that contains various vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients from green tea and maritime pine bark, among others, to help protect against oxidative stress. Antioxidant formula. Combination of different vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients. Protects cells from oxidative damage. Suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Does not contain salt. Free radicals are formed in the body when breathing, digesting food, exercising, and even during sleep. They are produced naturally by emotional stress, ultraviolet light, radiation, and environmental pollution. Free radicals damage the body by deteriorating cells, reducing defenses and favoring oxidative stress. To counteract the effect of free radicals, the activity of antioxidants is necessary. Some are: vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, selenium and the components of some plants. Solgar's special formulation combines vitamins C and E with minerals such as zinc, selenium and copper, all of which protect against oxidative stress. Some amino acids such as taurine, cysteine and glutathione and a pulverized vegetable base of spirulina, ginkgo biloba, milk thistle and gotu kola are also added. Incorporated into this blend are phytochemicals from green tea, red wine, and Pycnogenol® (a registered trademark of the bark of the French maritime pine, Pinus pinaster). Vitamin C: protects cells from oxidative stress and regenerates the reduced form of vitamin E. Vitamin E: contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative damage. It is a fat-soluble vitamin and is one of the main antioxidants. It also contains natural vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol) which in studies has shown 1.3 times the bioavailability of synthetic forms.** Zinc: protects cells from oxidative stress. Manganese: protects cells from oxidative stress. Rose hip: contains bioflavonoids that naturally occur together with vitamin C in nature. Bioflavonoids help improve the absorption and bioavailability of vitamin C. Tocopherol: is a form of vitamin E that is extracted from vegetable oils. Selenium: protects cells from oxidative stress. Copper: protects cells from oxidative stress. Riboflavin (vitamin B2): protects cells from oxidative stress. Taurine: essential amino acid that cannot be produced by the body. It is involved in different processes of the organism. L-glutathione: formed by the union of 3 amino acids, specifically glutamic acid, cysteine and glycerin. Present in the liver. L-cysteine: sulfur-containing amino acid involved in energy metabolism. It is also necessary to synthesize glutathione. Carotenoids: they are those that provide the intense yellow, red and orange color to plants, vegetables and fruits. ** International Journal of Vitamin Research (AM J Clin Nutr 1998;67:669-84).
