Antioxidants help to neutralise free radicals – reactive compounds produced by the body, and ingested through external sources such as cigarette smoke, pollutants and ultraviolet light.
Free radicals, if not inactivated by antioxidants, can damage DNA in cells.
Wholegrains, such as BARLEYmax®, are a vital source of antioxidants, containing a higher antioxidant capacity than many fruits or vegetables.
BARLEYmax® compared to other sources of antioxidants
An important part of our health is eating foods that are rich in antioxidants.
BARLEYmax® is a rich source of antioxidants, containing twice the antioxidants of oats and
three times the level of broccoli and four times that of tea.
