You really must have a mixture of antioxidants present in your body at once, as they all help each other. When an antioxidant ‘mops up’ a harmful free radical, it can in turn become a free radical itself, and then needs to be ‘neutralized’ by another antioxidant…and so on! Fortunately the end of the chain often lies with vitamin C (if you have enough of it!), which turns into a water-soluble free radical and is lost from your body when you urinate. Vitamin C is therefore a real ‘master antioxidant’. Make sure your child gets enough.
