It's well known that many fruits and berries contain powerful antioxidants which are beneficial to your health. Antioxidants are part of the class of phytochemicals, also called phytonutrients, which are substances found in plants that provide certain not necessary, but healthful chemicals to aid the body in fighting disease, inflammation; and reducing cardio-vascular disease and cancer risk. What isn't so widely known is that many herbs and spices have even greater amounts of antioxidants by weight than do fruits. Some everyday herbs and spices that you can use are cinnamon, ginger, oregano, and turmeric.
