The body naturally prevents the oxidation of nutrients agent Antioxidants neutralize free radicals. Many antioxidants are nutrients that receive them through diet.
The effectiveness of any antioxidant measured in the units of the Absorption Capacity of Radical Oxygen (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity = ORAC). Of particular interest in that certain active substances found in herbs are much more effective at neutralizing free radicals than the antioxidant vitamins C and E.
The OracOmega a combination of a high level of these herbal antioxidants (green tea extract, rosemary and oregano) with fish oil in order to create a very strong product.
