Warm has us spending more time in the sun, and
fortunately it will also yield a bounty of
antioxidant-rich fresh produce. In addition to reducing
damage caused by the sun's radiation,
antioxidants are being studied for their role in
general anti-aging, heart disease, cancer, vision
protection and Alzheimer's disease. Nourish your body
from the inside out by feeding it antioxidant-rich foods
and taking supplements to combat the negative
environmental factors. When you are outdoors enjoying
the beach and other outdoor activities this summer, be
sure to take caution -- keep hydrated and take good care
of your skin and hair!
