Dr. Lester Packer is a keen proponent of the "antioxidant advantage," the ability of the body to better resist the process of aging and disease when it has the right combination and quantities of antioxidants working together. He and writer Carol Colman refer to this combination as the antioxidant network: coenzyme Q10, glutathione, lipoic acid ...
