Antioksidanter

REDOX SYSTEM AND SECONDARY PLANT SUBSTANCES
For repair and regeneration mechanisms in the human body, thousands of different redox systems are in place at the molecular level. They protect the cells from oxidative and nitrosative stress. The group of antioxidants includes vitamins, minerals, trace elements, secondary plant substances and enzymes. Antioxidants regulate and stabilize redox reactions by releasing one of their excess electrons to free radicals. They are also referred to as radical scavengers because they release their electron more easily than a cell membrane or DNA, protecting the cells from oxidative damage.
