Anti-ageing treatments are in trend, and products to reduce the consequences of ageing are a must for many women and men.
On the market, we find creams, treatments, foods, vitamins and supplements that help to slow down the ageing process, but not slow it down. But, what if we could use the remedies and plants that nature provides us to take care of ourselves from the inside and stop cellular oxidation?
Experts in natural origin products from Naturadika are committed to the use of plants that prevent oxidation and delay ageing. The best-known antioxidants are vitamins A, C, E and coenzyme Q10, although many lesser-known plants have proven to be very effective. If these components are missing in our diet, oxidation and ageing are precipitated, hence it is so important to reinforce with natural supplements.
Next, we will tell you about the properties of some plants that will help you delay cellular oxidation, the main cause of ageing.
Zinc
We start with zinc, a basic mineral in our diet that contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels and protects cells against oxidative damage. You can find it in many foods, both vegetable and animal. For example, in green leafy vegetables, avocado, in fish or in meat.
Guarana
Guarana contains polyphenols, substances well known for their antioxidant power as they help fight the damage caused by free radicals, involved in the early ageing of the body.
Cayenne and black pepper
Not only do they help fight oxidation, they also help you maintain physical shape. Cayenne pepper helps reduce appetite, which increases when you least need it and also increases thermogenesis. For its part, black pepper and its famous active compound, piperine, promote fat burning.
