Yes, it does make sense if you think about it. Let’s go back to that fantasy Beatles concert in Central Park. You’ve got Ringo on drums, George on lead guitar, John singing away and Paul on bass guitar. Together you’ve got a group. Now that’s not to say you can’t have a drum solo. Sure you can. You can have one guitar playing—happens all the time. You can even have one person singing; there are walls of CDs to show that that’s a highly possible and very lucrative activity. But you can also combine all those elements and come up with a group.Antioxidants are just like that. Vitamin C is terrific on its own. It goes after those special little free radicals that love to swim and splash around in the watery parts of cells and in the special fluid between cells. Vitamin E is wonderful as a solo act, too. It goes after free radicals that attack and puncture the oily, fatty cell membranes. Beta-carotene does its own thing and so does calcium. But when you put them together, you have one powerful antioxidant, anti-ageing cocktail. Vitamin C helps vitamin E be even more effective. Calcium can do a better job when it is paired up with vitamin C. Beta-carotene does its own mopping up and then helps the others. Alone they are pretty remarkable. As a group, they are awesome, restoring health, extending years, and beating back ageing and premature death itself.*59\323\8*
