Our bodies simply cannot synthesize many essential compounds, so our health partly depends on what we eat and drink.Antioxidants, which are believed to help protect us against both cancer and heart disease, are one such element that must import into our bodies. Studies have shown that there is a significant positive association between a higher intake of fruits and vegetables and reduced risk of chronic disease.
