Anywhere you go nowadays, whether it be your local pharmacy, grocery store or corner gas station, you’ll see products boasting their antioxidant ingredients.
We’ve been taught since early childhood that antioxidants are some wonder-substance, capable of fighting off ill health.

J.

That distinction was never corrected in the mainstream press and the misconception still continues to this day.
