A recent study at UCLA is showing that the reactive oxygen or ROS molecules are not as harmful as once thought and actually are needed for cell signaling. The question this study raises is “could excessive use of antioxidants deplete our immune systems”
We have been taught that antioxidants are the answer to maintaining health and fighting aging. They are very important, but what many of us don’t know is that antioxidants, by themselves, are incapable of fighting free radicals without the help of certain reactive molecules. These reactive molecules are basic and fundamental to the immune system and healing process and are needed to turn on the antioxidants that protect us from free radicals and aging. Our body needs to maintain a proper chemical balance of these reactive molecules to protect us and sustain our health.
