Nutritional antioxidants: A battle for better health
Antioxidants break up the chains formed during the propagation process of the redox system by providing a hydrogen atom of an electron to the free radical and receiving the excess energy possessed by the activated molecule. The important role of dietary antioxidants in maintaining the integrity of living organisms is gaining ever-increasing recognition. New data are constantly gathered to show the role of oxidative stress and the involvement of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species in the pathogenesis of degenerative diseases.
