Spices and Herbs - Age old healers, Antioxidant Rich Spices
For centuries, spices have been used as natural remedies. Spices are aromatic substances from dried seeds, fruits, roots, bark or leaves. Spices and herbs form a part of everyday cooking. Significant quantities are consumed in dietary cultures where they are used regularly. Many of the health benefits are attributed to spices' antioxidant content, since they score well in terms of ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity), an analytical method of measuring antioxidant capacities.
