We benefit nutritionally from many components found in foods that also happen to be rich in "direct" antioxidants, such as oranges, dark chocolate and red wine. It is thought that if we eat these foods and many other direct antioxidant supplements, we would receive tremendous antioxidant rewards and reduce our total oxidative stress. Science is proving that to be a myth.
