Tipton, KS | Caveat II - Antioxidant retention in the body depends; water-soluble are excreted within 24–48 hours, while fat-soluble antioxidants can be stored in tissue for weeks. Obtaining via food is generally better, and using mega-doses might not be to a person's benefit.
Tidbits:
Berries, green tea, coffee, and dark chocolate are renowned for being good sources of antioxidants (12Trusted Source).
According to some studies, coffee is the single biggest source of antioxidants in the Western diet, but this is partly because the average individual doesn’t eat that many antioxidant-rich foods (13Trusted Source, 14Trusted Source).
