Best anti-oxidants to help cleanse your system?

Drinks, vitamins, fruits, etc...Best anti-oxidants to help cleanse your system?
Actually I just heard of a new report just out that said that they are actually not as beneficial as they once thought. That they really don't do anything special. But still eat those foods because they are still nutritious in other ways.Best anti-oxidants to help cleanse your system?

JAMA has published a very deceptive article in which they claim research supports that taking antioxidants contributes to mortality. The reported information is based on a flawed meta-analysis of many different studies including some conducted on vulnerable populations such as profoundly ill extended care residents.





In fact, from the data you can see that people were moved into certain groups to design a conclusion.





Here is the latest criticism of the JAMA article coming in from the scientific community:





JAMA Publishes Meta-Analysis on Antioxidants – Industry Responds





Quote:


At issue in this case, is another meta-analysis, another examination of previously published research. As is the case with any meta-analysis, selection of included (and excluded) studies becomes quite important, with industry arguing that the researcher’s criteria predisposed the analysis to the ultimate results - a significant increase in mortality. Another consistent observation made of the study results, and one which actually did get mention in one of the Reuters stories, was the fact that many of the studies involved, not a normal healthy population where vitamin supplementation is suggested to preserve good health, but rather diseased populations with a variety of health issues.

International Experts Dispute Conclusions Of Antioxidant Review


Quote:








The limitations of approach identified by the authors of the paper include studies with varied populations and that the effects of the antioxidants assessed were drawn from trials of both the general population and of diseased populations, including cardiovascular, renal and rheumatoid.





Further limitations included findings and interpretations that were identified as limited because of the quality and quantity of available evidence on the effects of specific supplements on mortality. The studies also embraced different antioxidants having different bioavailabilities and mechanisms of action, and the antioxidants were given at different doses, for different lengths of time, in different combinations, using different methodologies.





Dr Hirobumi Ohama, from the Japanese Institute for Heath Food Standards, said: “In some studies the mortality denominators among antioxidant and control groups are remarkably different and the inclusion of such diversified data may degrade the validity of the estimation.”





“The study authors concluded that overall there was no effect of antioxidant supplements on all-cause mortality,” said Dr Shao, explaining that it was only after the researchers divided the chosen clinical trials into ‘high risk bias’ and ‘low risk bias’ groups using their own criteria, that they observed a statistically significant effect on mortality.





The scientific network agreed that consumers could continue taking antioxidant food supplements for the benefits they provide.

Natural Products Association Says Medical Journal Study on Vitamins and Mortality is Flawed; Points to Research Showing Health Benefits and Urges People to Continue Proper Antioxidant Use





Quote:


February 27, 2007 – WASHINGTON, D.C – The Natural Products Association today disputed the conclusions of a new meta-analysis appearing in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) suggesting that the use of antioxidants might increase mortality risk, saying that the study was scientifically misleading and that most clinical research continues to show that antioxidants are safe and beneficial.





“Despite the authors’ contention, this analysis is assessing mortality of at-risk and diseased populations – versus a healthy population – in prevention trials. The risk of mortality must be attributed to the appropriate population studied, those with an existing health condition, which it isn't in this case. Instead, those findings are generalized to a healthy general population, which is wrong on many levels,” said Daniel Fabricant, Ph.D., vice president of scientific affairs for the Natural Products Association. “But what’s most troubling is that people who are safely and beneficially taking vitamins might stop, which may actually put their health at greater risk.”

Yes, you need antioxidants. Don't expect drug-company-influenced research to back it up though. They have a poisonous drug for you AFTER you get sick...so they have a financial incentive to not promote any of the decades of research showing the benefits of antioxidants in the body.
