A Radical Point of View: Journey of a Free Radical in a Struggle Against Enzymes and the Body
So, what kind of free radical are you?
You have 7 choices:
- I'm a superoxide radical! 02-
- I'm a hydroxyl radical, and I have an attitude... OH-
- I like to be different. I'm not a radical, I'm hydrogen peroxide! H2O2
- I'm a peroxyl radical! ROO-
- I'm normally higher than a kite! O3
- I don't like free radicals! I wanna be an antioxidant!
- Let's look at the big picture? Maybe enzymes and radicals are more nuanced?
