Antioxidants are essential nutrients that provide enormous health benefits to all parts of the body including the skin. When free radicals meet oxygen in the body, they play a role in protecting skin against ultraviolet radiation and other oxidative reactions.

 Imagine for a moment a metal object that sits out in the rain. If it does not have a protective coat or is sheltered from the elements, it will rust. This also happens when an apple is cut and starts to brown. If you squeeze lemon juice on the cut apple, the vitamin C in the lemon will protect the apple from free radical damage.
