Antioxidants are compounds that fight free radicals, unstable molecules that damage cells and proteins in your body. Free radicals can form after exposure to cigarettes, alcohol, fried food, pollutants, or ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun.

This plant contains antioxidants that may protect skin from inflammatory conditions, as well as sun damage and rashes that develop from sun exposure.

According to recent research a dose of 480 mg a day of oral Polypodium leucotomos is safe for the general population, but more research is needed.
