Cells in the human body is where biochemical processes that use oxygen for energy generation occur. This kind of process, called oxidation, generates potentially harmful waste products: free radicals. Antioxidants are a set of chemically different substances that can tackle or inhibit oxidation. Antioxidant enzyme systems can be divided into endogenous, the ones produced by our body, or exogenous that are introduced in it through food or supplements. Natural antioxidants can be found in fruits and vegetables and are divided into three groups: vitamins, carotenoids and phenolic compounds.

But there are many others that are just as important, such as iron, zinc, manganese, boron, sulfur, phosphorus, selenium, and iodine. These are called trace minerals because lesser amounts are needed, although they are equally vital. Trace minerals as well as vitamins and cofactors are needed for optimal mineral utilization. For example, calcium is often taken for strong bones, but you need magnesium, manganese, boron, and other minerals for the calcium to actually be used to strengthen the bones. In another example, vitamin C helps iron be absorbed.
