FREE RADICALS - A MAJOR CAUSE OF AGING AND DISEASE
FREE RADICALS , also known simply as radicals:
When cancer is detected, it may be there for more than 5-10 years!
Symptoms occur when the body is unbalanced, that is very late, when chronic disease is already installed for a long time.
- are organic molecules responsible for aging, tissue damage, and possibly some diseases
- are very unstable molecules, therefore they look to bond with other molecules, destroying their vigor and perpetuating the detrimental process
- are chemical agents (oxygen, nitrogen monoxide), which have the ability to trigger chain reactions, attacking cells, DNA, certain molecules, proteins or fatty acids and causing cell death.
