Antioxidant Effect

Molecular classification: Chemical Activity

Overview

The antioxidant effect refers to the ability of certain molecules (antioxidants) to neutralize free radicals, preventing or reducing oxidative damage. It supports healthy aging processes and modulates inflammation.

Mechanism of action

Neutralizing free radicals by donating electrons, scavenging reactive species, converting reactive species into less toxic forms, interrupting chain propagation reactions, enhancing endogenous antioxidant defenses, chelating metal ions.

Biological functions

Neutralization of free radicalsProtection against oxidative stressMaintenance of redox balanceModulation of inflammation

Disease associations

Prevention of heart diseasePrevention of cancerPrevention of diabetesPrevention of neurodegenerative disorders
