Mineral-Based Antioxidants - Zinc, Selenium, Copper &More for Cellular Protection & Immune Support

ABOUT MINERAL-BASED ANTIOXIDANTS

Protect your body from oxidative stress with Mineral-Based Antioxidant Supplements from Coal Harbour Pharmacy. Essential trace minerals such as zinc, selenium, copper, and manganese play a critical role in defending cells against free radical damage, supporting immune resilience, and maintaining healthy metabolic and skin function.

These minerals act as key cofactors for antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase, which help neutralize oxidative stress and support cellular repair. Our pharmacist-curated collection includes standalone mineral supplements and synergistic antioxidant blends from trusted professional and Canadian brands.
