Unless you have your pet (and yourself for that matter) on something like Protandim, no amount of any ingredient with antioxidants is going to have even the slightest relevant impact on your level of oxidative stress cells. It all sounds good and healthy , but the reality of it is that every day billions of these cells are created inside of us, and the amount that those well meaning antioxidants alone in your food and drinks kill off is so insignificant that it doesn't even count. Like a massive English Army overrunning 20 well meaning high spirited Scottish men in battle. While she is right about the value of antioxidants, it's kind of a moot point because it makes no difference. The scientist who discovered antioxidants and their importance is also the one who later discovered that he was wrong about their level of effectiveness . you can eat all the corn, bananas, kiwis etc... that you could possibly consume in a day and it wouldn't come close to having any effect on your oxidation levels in your blood. That subject could go a lot deeper but I just woke up and I'm not ready for big words yet. Good morning all!

I think I may have confused free radicals with oxidative stress cells earlier. Whatever. It was morning. I don't do mornings well.
