Flavonoids
Flavonoids ~ Natures Super Foods
The Benefits:
These are very much like vitamins in that they act to make biological processes work faster and act as antioxidants.
Some increase the ability of certain enzymes to metabolize potential cancer-causing compounds into harmless compounds.
For age reduction, the RAO for flavonoids is 31 mg per day.
This can make your real age as much as 3.2 years younger.
