Antioxidants are a group of compounds that are produced by the body and that occur naturally in many foods. Antioxidants work together in the body to maintain our health and energy well into the late decades of life. They do this by protecting us from damage caused by free radicals, which can injure healthy cells and tissues. Antioxidants are found in a variety of oils, including Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
