Basically the process of physiological wear-out is much similar to the process of wood putrefaction. An in fact the oxidation reaction plays the key role in this process.
As I've already mentioned in my last entry oxidation inside our organisms occures through digestion of food containing free active oxygene radicals.
There are many plant species that developed substances 'catching' these radicals. Basically, exactly because of these substances many plant species can resist rotting for decades and hundreds of years, like Siberian larch, sequoia,
In fact we can borrow these precious substances directly from these plants, au naturel, so there's no need in feeding ourselves on some expensive synthetic extracts. Instead you can consume the oxidation preventives from the following natural products rich in them:
=> 80% of all dark-colored fruit, berries, herbs, spices and vegetables. The dark coloring results from bioflavonoids, which are among the best oxidation preventive
