200538103119. 9. Because oxidation is naturally occurring process within the body, balance with antioxidants must exist to maintain health. ResearchWhile the body has its defenses against oxidative stress, these defenses are thought to become less effective with aging as oxidative stress becomes greater. 1 Research suggests there is involvement of the resulting free radicals in number of degenerative diseases associated with aging, such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment, Alzheimers disease, immune dysfunction, cataracts, and macular degeneration. 29 Certain conditions, such as chronic diseases and aging, can tip the balance in favor of free radical formation, which can contribute to ill effects on health.
