How Free Radicals Damage Our Bodies
Dear visitor, if you want to minimize your exposure to disease, it is important for you to understand how free radicals (Oxidative stress) damage our body and how antioxidants repair our body.
Everyday our body tries to cope with stress. Externally, we deal with environmental stressors like pollution while internally; we face physical and emotional stresses. High levels of stress release large amounts of free radicals in our body. Under normal circumstances, the body neutralizes free radicals on its own with antioxidants from our cells. However, with persistent stress from our busy lifestyles, free radicals can become too much for the body to handle. The imbalance of free radicals and antioxidants, called Oxidative stress, can lead to cell and tissue damage. See diagrams.
Free radicals are toxins, from the environment or by-products of digestion or drugs, believed to cause or worsen many diseases. They are not called ‘radicals’ for nothing. They steal electrons from our cells (building blocks of our body), creating weak unhealthy cells in the process. They damage our DNA.
Get it? When your cells are weak, you eventually become weak and/or sick. The way to keep free radicals from damaging your cells is to neutralize them with antioxidants. Free radicals want electrons, so they steal it (rip it) from your healthy cells…Folks this is how “disease” occurs…you get weak and eventually sick.
Oxidative stress is a hallmark of a number of diseases including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease, Sickle cell disease etc. See diagram on the right.
How Antioxidants Repair Our Bodies
Antioxidants can stop the cycle of free radical damage by donating an electron to the free radical, neutralizing it, and preventing it from causing further damage. Some antioxidants are produced by your body but some are not. As we age, the body’s natural antioxidant production decline, so it is important to supplement it.
If you take antioxidants, the antioxidants provide the electrons that these free radicals (molecular thieves) need so they can leave the electrons from your healthy cells alone.
This is where Montmorency tart cherries come in. Tart cherries contain an abundance of 17 antioxidants including anthocyanins and melatonin (an efficient antioxidant). The consumption of any tart cherry products is followed by the uptake of the antioxidants into the body where they ward off tissue destruction (referred to scientifically as oxidative stress) that could cause aging and disease.

Recent antioxidant Research findings
As we stated earlier, research on the ingredients in tart cherries have been going on for more than ten years at Michigan State University, University of Texas Health Science Center and several other independent laboratories around the world. We will like to draw your attention to most recent scientific findings.
Tart cherry juice concentrate gets highest antioxidant potency Score of all Fruits and Vegetables
Tart cherry juice concentrate has the highest ORAC values of all the fruits and vegetables recently tested, according to Brunswick Laboratories, in Wareham, MA. Dr. Boxin Ou, principal research scientist at Brunswick Laboratories who is one of the leading scientist in the United States (U.S) on phytochemicals in plant foods.
The ORAC (oxygen radical absorption capacity) test accurately quantifies the antioxidant capacities of foods by taking into account the fact that most natural products are complex mix of phytochemicals of which many are antioxidants. It is a measure of how many antioxidants are in a food product and how powerful they are. That means the antioxidants in tart cherries are more readily available to neutralize free radicals in our body.
Antioxidant Capacity of top 12 Fruits
Research conducted at Jean Mayer (United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University and Brunswick Laboratory, compared the ORAC values of 12 top fruits. The results show that cherry juice concentrate has over 17 times more antioxidants than red grapes.
This finding is significant considering the volume of research available on the health benefits of drinking red wine. The ORAC test results are shown below:
