At the hearing, Carpenter suggested that cell phones may increase the brain's production of reactive forms of oxygen called free radicals, which can interact with and damage DNA.

Increased blood circulation nourishes the skin cells with oxygen and nutrients to keep your cells healthy and vital and by carrying away waste products, like free radicals.

The other study on simulated digestion was similar: wild raspberries inhibited reactive oxygen species (free radical) generation, stabilised cell membranes, and increased glutathione levels.

Because of an increased oxygen requirement during exercise, the harder you hit the gym, the more free radicals you produce.

Exercise increases oxygen flow into the brain, which reduces brain - bound free radicals.

Similarly, unsupported oxygen metabolism due to lack of antioxidant nutrients has been shown to result in oxidative stress, excessive formation of free radicals, and a metabolic environment that increases risk of cancer development.

So, the thinking is that lower methionine intake leads to less free radical production — the so - called «reactive oxygen species,» which slows the rate of DNA damage, which then would slow the rate of DNA mutation, slowing the rate of aging and disease — thereby potentially increasing our lifespan.

The therapeutic dotential of dietary precursor modulation by a fish - oil - supplemented diet (n - 3 fatty acids), such as eicosapentaenoic acid (C20: 5,n - 3) and docosahexaenoic acid (C22: 6,n - 3) in the therapy of ulcerative colitis has been shown to result in a 35 % to 50 % decrease in neutrophil production of LTB4.28 Significant improvement in symptoms and histologic appearance of the rectal mucosa has been observed in several small series of patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis given fish oil at 3 to 4 g daily for 2 to 6 months in uncontrolled studies.29 However, a larger, randomized, double - blind trial comprising 96 patients with ulcerative colitis failed to reveal any benefit in remission maintenance or treatment of relapse on 4.5 g of eicosapentaenoic acid daily, despite a significant reduction in LTB4 synthesis by blood peripheral polymorphonuclear cells.30 It should be emphasized, however, that the anti-inflammatory actions of the fish oils, in addition to inhibition of LTB4, include suppression of IL - 1 and platelet activating factor synthesis and scavenging of free oxygen radicals.30 The impact of increased lipid peroxidation after fish oil supplementation should be considered when altering the n - 6: n - 3 fatty acid ratio.31 Antioxidant supplementation may be able to counteract the potentially adverse effects of n - 3 fatty acids.
