What's an ORAC?
ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity, a standard adopted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It provides a very precise way of measuring the free radical destroying or neutralizing ability of a particular food or supplement. Whole, natural foods, especially fruits and vegetables have a higher ORAC value than processed foods. While the USDA recommends 3000-5000 ORAC units, most of us only get about 1000. The result? Free radicals roaming your body wreaking havoc on your cells, causing premature aging, heart concerns, and other health problems.
