| What is ORAC?
Oxygen Radical AbsorbencyCapacity, more commonly known as ORAC, is the measurement of antioxidant capacity in foods. Antioxidants play an important role in combating unpaired electron molecules commonly referred to as Free Radicals, which can damage cells. With increased levels of pollution, toxins, and life's daily stresses, your body will benefit from additional sources of antioxidants. Taking antioxidant supplements with high ORAC scores is the best and most economical solution.

How many ‘Antioxidants' do I need?
Antioxidants have been studied by many scientists, and the USDA has published a list of foods and their relative ORAC values. A recent study at Tufts University in Boston, by the Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging, conducted a series of tests concluding that consuming between 3500-5000 ORAC units a day showed a “significant impact on plasma and tissue antioxidant capacity (Tufts University, 2008).”
