Antioxidants: One must be careful taking herbal supplements. While some may be helpful this industry is not well regulated. Before adding any supplements to your life it is important to see if there are any good studies validating their use. Recent studies have shown antioxidant supplements to be ineffective and perhaps increasing risk. They are not known to interfere with birth control
