What you don’t know about me is that cancer runs in my family. Not only have both my parents had cancer (my dad passed away from cancer two years ago), but my aunts and uncles have also battled cancer as well. So the way I see it, I am a marked woman. But that doesn’t mean I can’t do everything in my power to stay healthy and protect myself on a daily basis.
Part of staying healthy involves boosting antioxidants in our body to help fight the daily stress we encounter from basically everything we do. While our bodies naturally produce antioxidants, I still try to eat fruits and vegetables that are antioxidant-rich, and use antioxidants even in my skincare routine to prevent wrinkles and premature aging. But did you know you can take additional vitamins that have the essential ingredients that are required for our bodies to produce more antioxidants?
I was recently introduced to the RxQ Antioxidant Complex from Schoenwetter, LLC as a daily way to preserve my body from the everyday stress and free radicals that surround us. Daily things we encounter affect our bodies internally, whether we know it or not. Frequent commuting or air travel, medical x-rays and scans, daily computer usage, outdoor activities and exposure to the sun – these are all elements we cannot escape. But we can, however, protect our bodies from these harmful stress overloads. RxQ Antioxidant Complex can help mitigate the damage caused by these elements that can develop into premature disability and loss of cellular function by allowing our bodies to create more antioxidants.
Taken three times a day with a meal, RxQ Antioxidant has helped me feel more energetic, my skin smoother and brighter, and made me feel better knowing I am protecting my body against daily oxidative stressors. The vegetarian capsules are gluten, wheat, dairy, soy, and preservative free, with no artificial color or flavor, and made with non-gmo ingredients. I love the small carrying case that comes with the vitamins, so that I can carry it with me and I don’t forget to take a vitamin with each meal.
We all have a gazillion things to do each day and wish there were more hours in a day to get all those things done. Coupled with our checklist of to-dos and our surrounding environment, sometimes our bodies can’t keep up with it all. Using these antioxidant capsules can help protect our bodies from the free radicals and maintain cell function.
I’m not saying that taking these supplements will prevent or cure cancer by any means, but they will help combat the harmful effects of everyday life that we are exposed to and overall help me keep my body healthy. And whatever I can do to naturally keep healthy is worth a try.
Daily use of computer accelerates aging as radon and radiation from electronics increases oxidative stress
Vegetarian capsules are gluten, GMO, Filler, Additive, Soy, and Preservative Free
Traveling can increase oxidative stress with high altitudes and lack of oxygen in airplane cabins
UVA and UVB are invisible environmental pollutants that harm us and age us quickly
Taken three times a day with a meal will help mitigate the harmful effects of free radicals

Aw I’m so sorry to hear about cancer running in your family 🙁 it’s such a tough situation to deal with and it’s amazing that you’re taking precautions using these antioxidants to help combat everything. Cancer runs in one of my friend’s family so I’m definitely going to recommend this to them. Thank you for sharing!

It is a sad thought, but I definitely see people being affected healthwise all the time. We need to try and do whatever we can to stay healthy and live life to the fullest!
Omg!! Am so sorry to hear about your dad. That’s not a good thing for a family. All you have to do now is try to protect yourself and I’m sure all will be great. Wish you all best beautiful.
Thank you Deddeh, I appreciate it. I think we all just need to be mindful more than ever that health comes first and we should do what we can to keep our bodies healthy.

Thank you Yuka, it really is a great product and for everyone as we all are affected my daily stressors and free radicals and we need to protect our bodies and keep healthy!
I am definitely interested in trying these! I usually struggle with taking supplements or vitamins because I’m allergic to SO many things (including soy – which seems to be in everything “healthy”), but these seem like they could help me out! Thanks so much for sharing!

Hi Stephanie! Yes, these are great because they do not have a lot of the bad ingredients that other supplements/ vitamins have.
That product looks amazing! I am always taking vitamins and supplements to make sure I am healthy as well. I appreciate your outlook on wellness and love that you’re being proactive 🙂

Hi Katrina! I am definitely not stating that these antioxidant vitamins will cure or prevent cancer, but I try to do what I can to be healthy and mindful of things that are harmful to my body.
Looooved reading this!!! Healthy is so important especially when we are models for our children.
Thank you Kristina. I agree, and if anything, I also want to be healthy for my kids to continue being with them as much as possible and being healthy to enjoy them!
Oh I am so sorry to hear about your dad! Cancer actually runs in my husband’s family unfortunately. Thank you so much for introducing this to us as I want my hubby to try them.

I didn’t know about these but they look great. Im sorry to hear you lost your father.
I’m so sorry about your parents. They went too soon! Cancer also runs in my fathers family line. He had 3rd degree cancer and survived but it’s always something that can come back. He lost his father and grandfather by cancer as well. So thank you for sharing these supplements. I’ll definitely look into them for my father and for me. 🙂
I’m sorry to hear about your parents! I known people who are close to me passed because of cancer. It’s such a terrible disease! I recently found lumps on my left breast, not cancerous and I hope it doesn’t ever turn into it. But it’s been a scary ride this year. Constant visits to my doctor etc and mostly the cause was due to what I put in my body and my stress level so I agree with you about needing to take care of your body! So since this year I’ve been dealing with this issue, I actually went and got a tattoo of a pink ribbon on my shoulder. Definitely means something to me more now. Thanks for sharing!

Sadly, cancer runs in my family too. My mum passed away in 2014, so i totally understand how you feel.
Since then, i’ve been trying to stay the healthier i can. I try to eat clean, but truth is sometimes it’s hard on this crazy stress routine we live in.
That being said, i’m totally in when the thing is trying new vitamins. I didn’t know about this one in specific (i have to try it), but i take Centrum, and now collaggen too (i found it here in Portugal, probably i was the only person who had never heard about that before reading your post) and i feel more energetic and my skin looks brighter. So thank’s for that.
I know it’s probably something weird to say but i love to read you. You write really weel (as a foreign i would love to write like you one day, in english).
Have a wonderful weekend, dear.

I’m sorry for your loss babe! Cancer runs in my family too and I’m well aware of the risks I’m putting myself up to, especially when it comes to stress. I’d love to try these antioxidants out, and even though, just like you said, they won’t cure cancer or anything, at least they might help to slow the process down.
Thanks for a great tip and have a wonderful weekend!

I never thought of it that way Yasmin, but you are absolutely right. If there are tools to help us stay healthy and prevent getting into bad health, why not, right?

Thank you Jessi. Yes traveling and being exposed to so much pollution, stress, and computers eventually will take a toll on our bodies. We definitely have to be mindful of these free radicals and try and protect ourselves.

Oh babe so many great things in this post! First off, I’m terribly sorry about the loss of your father! In 2014 I lost my grandfather who was like a father to me. Due to the same thing. I definitely have oxidative stress (been measured) and have been taking supplements for a while now. I love that these are non-gmo and free of all the unwanted things. I must try them! Here’s to health babe! Xoxo, Adelina

I am so sorry for your loss Christine, it is never easy to lose a family member to Cancer. I can only imagine the pain you and your family must have gone through. Cancer is something that just isn’t in our control. But we can take care of ourselves and try to stay as healthy as possible. These capsules are an excellent idea, antioxidants are the perfect addition to our diet. I will definitely look into this product and consider adding it to my regular diet. Thank you so much for sharing this Christine.
