Think in terms of color: Red, orange, and yellow bell peppers; eggplant; broccoli, spinach, kale, chard, fresh or canned pumpkin; fruits such as blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, boisenberries, cranberries or its juice; pomegranates or pomegranate juice. The more vibrant the color, the greater number of antioxidants the food or drink contains.

Fruits are known for having high antioxidant levels, such as pomegranates, and berries. But I think most fruits and veggies have decent, and varying content, so getting a good variety is best. I have also heard that shitake mushrooms are good and have antioxidants in them that are not found many other places.
