Dr. Berg's Cruciferous: https://bit.ly/2TMqVzI 


Dr. Berg talks about the basics of an antioxidant. In our environment and in our bodies we have free radicals, which are very reactive. This is an atom with an unpaired electron, making it unstable. This can damage our DNA, our mitochondria, our cells. This is called oxidation. An example would be radiation, chemicals, certain metals like free iron, stress, and even high blood sugar. On the flip side - we have anti-oxidants, which donate an electron making the atom neutralized. This would be vitamin C, E, A (beta carotene), alpha-lipoic acid, and basically all the phytonutrients that plants like cruciferous give us.
