Know Your Diet - Know Your Supplements - Exercise has numerous health benefits. A new study has recently shown that taking antioxidants reduced those health benefits including insulin sensitivity. This coincides with the hormetic effect of antioxidants. They are great as micronutrients (in small, unknown amounts) but have a detrimental effect in larger pharmacological doses.
Antioxidants prevent health-promoting effects of physical exercise in humans. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 106, No. 21. (26 May 2009), pp. 8665-8670, doi:10.1073/pnas.0903485106 by Michael Ristow, Kim Zarse, Andreas Oberbach, et al.
