It is now well recognised that essential dietary micro-nutrients, including specific vitamins and trace elements, are vital for the support of the body's protective antioxidant systems. These systems defend the body against attack from harmful free radicals that are thought to be central to the development of a variety of degenerative illnesses.

Over the last few years, researchers have turned their attention towards the health-protective, non-essential plant antioxidants which include materials such as flavonoids and other plant polyphenolic materials from dietary sources such as grape seed, green tea and rosemary alongside herbs including ginkgo biloba. This group, although not currently classified as vitamins, are now regarded as the new emerging class of potent antioxidants.

Additonal supplies of antioxidants are often recommended as an 'insurance' measure for some patients or as a supplement for those with increased antioxidant requirements.
