With cancer fighting and preventing properties, and anti-aging elements, antioxidants can make us healthier on many levels. Increase the antioxidants in your diet to create vitality and health.

 
Instructions
1.Understand that antioxidants are concentrated in fruits and vegetables. Increasing antioxidants in your diet means more of the good stuff in place of the bad.
2.Aim to include at least one fruit and vegetable serving at each meal. Meals should be low in fat and carbs, with fruits and veggies making up a substantial portion of calories. Swap a traditional side dish for a fruit or vegetable. The rule of thumb is that the more colorful the fruit, the richer in antioxidants it is.
3.Snack on these healthy staples. Switch snacks to fresh fruit such as apples, bananas, kiwis and berries or crunchy raw veggies with dip. Blend a fruit smoothie rather than reaching for a milkshake. Have a glass of pomegranate juice rather than a bottle of cola.
4.Trade starches for veggies. Eat less bread and starches such as potatoes and rice to save room for fruits and vegetables.
5.Choose canned, dried or frozen fruit if you can't get fresh. Eat the fruit alone or incorporate it into dishes to create more ways to eat the good stuff.
6.Shop the farmer's markets for great deals on fresh, seasonal produce.
