DESCRIPTION: Those eating a more plant-based diet may naturally have an enhanced antioxidant defense system to counter the DNA damage caused by free radicals produced by high-intensity exercise.

I should do more videos on watercress! The only other one I think I have is Sometimes the Enzyme Myth Is True (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/somet....

This video is the third of a 3-part series on enhancing athletic recovery times. Check out the first two if you're interested: Reducing Muscle Fatigue with Citrus (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/reduc...) and Reducing Muscle Soreness with Berries (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/reduc....

For more on the free radical theory of disease, see Mitochondrial Theory of Aging (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/mitoc....

The 64 times more video is Antioxidant Power of Plant Foods Versus Animal Foods (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/antio....

Why else is it important to eat antioxidant rich diets? See, for example, The Power of NO (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-p...) and Anti-Inflammatory Antioxidants (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/anti-....
