Antioxidants Journals

Antioxidants are compounds that inhibit oxidation. Oxidation is a chemical reaction that can produce free radicals, thereby leading to chain reactions that may damage the cells of organisms. Antioxidants such as thiols or ascorbic acid terminate these chain reactions. Antioxidants, such as vitamins C and E and carotenoids, may help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. A diet high in antioxidants may reduce the risk of many diseases, including heart disease and certain cancers. Antioxidants scavenge free radicals from the body cells, and prevent or reduce the damage caused by oxidation. The protective effect of antioxidants continues to be studied around the world. They work by generously giving electrons to free radicals without turning into electron-scavenging substances themselves. They are also involved in mechanisms that repair DNA and maintain the health of cells. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals by giving up some of their own electrons. ... When the immune system musters to fight intruders, for example, the oxygen it uses spins off an army of free radicals that destroy viruses, bacteria, and damaged body cells in an oxidative burst. There are a number of reasons why high concentrations of antioxidants may be harmful. At high concentrations, antioxidants may: act as pro-oxidants, increasing oxidation. protect dangerous cells (such as cancer cells) as well as healthy cells. Free Radical Biology and Medicine, Free Radical Biology and Medicine are Antioxidants Journals.
