Did you know?

Did you know that the concept of antioxidants has its origins in the 1950s, when it was discovered that certain compounds could neutralize free radicals? Free radicals are unstable molecules that are produced during normal metabolic processes and are increased by external factors such as UV exposure or pollution, causing cellular damage. The first antioxidants identified included vitamin C and vitamin E, both recognized for their ability to protect cells from oxidative stress. Over time, it was discovered that these compounds are not only found in fruits and vegetables, but also in a variety of skin care products.
