There is plenty of evidence that shows that the more plants we consume, the better, but there is no evidence that it has anything to do with 'antioxidants' such as vitamin C or E. The vitamin people have been pushing this for years, but they come up empty every time it's actually studied. In fact, of the few very large studies that have been conducted, supplementing antioxidants has either had no effect, or a cancer promoting effect. Don't let these charlatans fool you.And finally, eat more fresh produce with every meal. There is evidence that natural vitamin C found in citrus fruits and exotic berries (like camu camu) helps prevent the formation of cancer-causing nitrosamines, protecting you from the devastating health effects of sodium nitrite in processed meats.
