Antioxidant is a molecule capable of preventing the oxidation of other molecules. Oxidants, commonly known as "free radicals" are generated by external sources such as sun exposure or pollution. Other means include stress, as well as things that people view their bodies, such as alcoholic beverages, unhealthy foods, and cigarette smoking.
