Antioxidants play an important role in maintaining human health.

However, when their deficiency occurs, the body begins to give certain signals.

Antioxidants are important for humans because they stop the development of many diseases and restore cells. RIA Novosti reports details with reference to Svetlana Pavlichenko, director of the National Research Center "Healthy Nutrition".

It is noted that a lack of antioxidants in the body can be indicated by sleep disorders, problems with nails, teeth, skin and hair.

In addition, signs of deficiency include apathy, irritability, and fatigue.

Problems with gums, weak immunity, and muscle weakness may also indicate a lack of important substances.

According to Pavlichenko, it is important to include vegetables and fruits in your diet to get antioxidants. To detect a deficiency, you should visit a doctor and take the necessary tests.
