recover better from exercise...and that means more muscle and
less fat on your body in the long run!
The function that antioxidants play in aiding your recovery from
exercise is the inhibition of free radicals produced during
exercise. Any time you workout, free radicals are produced in
the body that damage muscle tissue. Having an adequate supply of
antioxidants about an hour or so before your workout can greatly
reduce the muscle damage caused by free radicals, hence,
improving your muscular recovery from exercise.
Some of the most potent sources of whole food antioxidants are
berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries,
cranberries), cherries, acai fruit, various teas (green tea,

seeds, red and black beans, purple potatoes, grapes, red wine,
cinnamon, and dark chocolate or cocoa. Dont be fooled by all of
the intense marketing for expensive antioxidant supplement

cheaper) than a pill.
My favorite pre-workout antioxidant-loaded snack is a piece of
whole grain toast with almond butter, a small amount of
blackberry jam, and topped with a pile of fresh blueberries or
sliced strawberries. I wash it down with a glass of iced green
tea or rooibos tea sweetened with just a small bit (about a
teaspoon) of raw honey. This is literally a quintuple-whammy of
potent anti-oxidants! The almond butter, blackberry,
blueberries, raw honey, and the green or rooibos tea are all
loaded with different varieties of muscle protecting, youth
promoting antioxidants. I throw down this snack about an hour
before my training. Give it a try for yourself, or be creative
and come up with your own antioxidant-rich pre-workout snack
based on your tastes.
Remember, your body is continually bombarded every day by free
radicals (creating oxidative stress) from exercise, air
pollution, smoke, sun exposure, junk food, exposure to
chemicals, etc. To reap the full benefits of antioxidants, try
to make sure that every meal and snack you eat has at least one
or two sources of antioxidant rich foods. This will give you a
continuous supply of antioxidants throughout every day to
prevent damage from the free radicals you are constantly exposed
to.
Antioxidants are just one piece to the puzzle of a healthy diet
that will give you the lean, muscular, youthful, and
disease-free body that everyone wants. To discover the secrets
behind all of the other pieces to the diet puzzle that create a
lean body (macronutrient profile, glycemic response, hormonal
