Abstract

The free radicals and oxidants can be both damaging and beneficial to the organism; they play a dual role as toxic and beneficial molecules. They come from either in-situ cell metabolism or external sources (pollution, cigarette smoke, radiation, medication). The accumulation of free radicals in the body causes oxidative stress when they cannot be eliminated gradually. Cancer, autoimmune disorders, aging, cataract, rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular, and neurological illnesses are all influenced by this mechanism. Antioxidants, which are either naturally created in the body or externally supplied by foods and/or supplements, are one of numerous processes by which the human body combats oxidative stress. This brief overview examines the taxonomy, mechanisms of formation and catabolism of free radicals, their beneficial and deleterious effects on cellular activities, the potential role of antioxidants in preventing and repairing oxidative stress-related damage, and the role of antioxidant supplementation in health maintenance. The herbs in the comfort capsule have a dual function: they reduce oxidative stress while also encouraging normal cell proliferation and growth and avoiding cell death. Herbs are being studied for their involvement in oxidative stress and free radical generation, as well as normal cell growth and prevention.
