To control this process, the body has antioxidant protection: special substances (antioxidants) work as traps for free radicals, tracking and neutralizing them, and thereby preventing oxidative damage to cells. If the balance between the production of free radicals and the activity of the antioxidant system is disturbed, oxidative stress occurs. It can cause a number of diseases, including cardiovascular, genetic, cancer and premature aging. Some antioxidants are produced in the body. Others, including selenium, come from food.
