Health Liberty: Radicals & Free Radicals

What are free radicals? Why are they damaging to the human body!  Vitamin E and the other antioxidant nutrients help protect the body against free radical damage. Some free radicals arise normally during metabolism. Sometimes the bodies immune system cells purposefully create them to neutralize viruses and bacteria. However, environmental factors such as pollution, radiation, cigarette smoke and herbicides can also spawn free radicals.

Normally, the body can handle free radicals, but if antioxidants are unavailable, or if the free-radical production becomes excessive, damage can occur. Free radical damage accumulates with age!

Scripture for this teaching: You (God) satisfy me more than the richest feast. Psalm 63:5
