Good point, Calianna. But there's still, officially, only evidence to suggest antioxidants do "jolt" the body. But we don't know if that's good, or not.

Health giving properties are theory at this point, like leaky gut. Which is also theoretical.

But one theory I followed, and got good results. Eating all those "toxic superfoods" like spinach, raspberries, and cocoa, --packed with healthy antioxidants!-- made me sicker.

So my own personal tests are what I have to rely upon. While parents always urge children to eat their vegetables, they don't.

Giving up most plants was not that difficult. I never liked them anyway Heck, I gave up fast food, and I used to love that.
