Best antioxidant for face

If you’re looking to eliminating free radicals, you’ll need to consume antioxidants.  Here is my pick for best antioxidant for face.  You will see the results!

Why are free radicals bad?

Free radicals damage our cells and can lead to all sorts of health problems.  These health problems include things like cancers and skin problems so it’s important to stay away from them.  Unfortunately, that’s not always easy to do because free radicals can find us from many sources, including the environment.

Wherever they come from, they can cause inflammation in the body, causing further problems.  For example, if you suffer from migraines, this is an example of inflammation.  Migraines aren’t enjoyable and when you suffer on a monthly basis for days at a time, you know how debilitating this is.  So, what can you do?

Antioxidants are amazing!

Antioxidants are powerhouses because, quite literally, they are against oxidation.  They help with free radical damage / cell damage so it’s important to consume antioxidants to help with things like skin puffiness and even migraines.

The good news is that antioxidants are found in both food and supplement form.  It’s so easy to get it in food that I don’t even think it’s necessary to buy a supplement.  Save your money and instead, buy organic.  With all that said, here are my 2 favorite food sources for antioxidants for your skin…

Best antioxidant for face

I actually have 2 top choices, but one is a favorite.  I’ll start with my second favorite, which is cinnamon.  Cinnamon is such a common ingredient that I’m sure you have this in your pantry right now.  This awesome antioxidant can help our skin look healthier.  I sometimes add a dash to my tea and I have friends who add it to their coffee.

Next is my top pick for best antioxidant for face, which is Ginger!  I’ve talked about ginger so much and you likely know how much I love ginger.  Ginger supports your gut health and helps with inflammation and ensuring your skin stays elastic – plus, it is so delicious.

Sure, it’s a bit spicey but it is so good for you.  If you like spice, you’ll love ginger.  If you are still trying to acquire the taste of ginger, give it some time.  Add a little ginger here and there to your food or drink some ginger tea.  Ginger supplements are even available.  Plus, did you know if you put fresh ginger on your acne scars, it can actually help the look of them?  Doesn’t hurt you to try (and doesn’t cost a lot of money either)!
