DNA protection blend

Also known as: antioxidant complex, 'DNA protect'

DNA protection blends usually combine antioxidants and nutrients involved in DNA repair – e.g. vitamins C and E, selenium, zinc, folate and B12, grape or green tea extracts, curcumin or NAD+ precursors. The quality and value of such a product depend on the composition and doses on the label; direct evidence that they protect DNA in humans is lacking.

What it is used for

  • protection of cells from oxidative stress (vitamins C, E, selenium, zinc) – EFSA-approved claims for individual ingredients, not the blend
  • protecting or repairing DNA and slowing ageing – no direct human evidence

Forms and how they differ

vitamin and mineral blends with antioxidant function

compare doses with the reference daily intake

blends with plant extracts

look for standardised extracts with stated mg

'proprietary' blends without doses

impossible to judge how much of each they contain

When to take it

With food, once daily.

Pairs well with

Not smoking, sun protection, enough sleep, and a diet rich in vegetables and fruit.

Do not combine / separate

Do not combine with other multivitamins or antioxidants without checking total doses (especially selenium, zinc, vitamins A and E).

Watch out for

Smokers should avoid high-dose beta-carotene. During pregnancy, cancer treatment, liver or kidney disease, or if you take medicines, consult your doctor.

Safety

Do not exceed the label dose; for individual vitamins and minerals, track total intake from all supplements.

Practical tip

You 'protect your DNA' most by not smoking, avoiding UV damage and limiting alcohol – no capsule can replace that.
