Oxidation reactions can produce free radicals. In turn, these radicals can start chain reactions. When the chain reaction occurs in a cell, it can cause damage or death to the cell. Oxidation is a key component of aging, and can contribute to disease. Antioxidants terminate these chain reactions by removing free radical intermediates, and inhibit other oxidation reactions.
