Our bodies are being continually exposed to ‘free radical’ damage
as a result of the environment in which we live. Air pollution and
cigarette smoking are the major factors that generate ‘free
radicals’, but one of the most important is the effect that sunlight
has on our skin. The body has its own natural defence mechanism to
fight these ‘free radicals’, substances called antioxidants which
neutralise ‘free radicals’ thus helping to protect our cells from
damage.
Beta carotene is one of the best known antioxidants which helps to
protect the skin against the damaging effects of ‘free radicals’
created by the action of ultra-violet rays on the skin.
