Antioxidants

Quite new research communications reveal that Vitamins E and C, despite of having known antioxidant properties, did not help on human cardiovascular disease and that other (not stated in the abstract) antioxidants did not stop senility mechanisms, at least in nematodes (worms).

Previous works had demonstrated that rats fed with antioxidants lived more than the controls. These works bring to a first page a quite old argument about antioxidants properties, involving plant antioxidant extracts as well.

As an enthusiastic supporter of antioxidants, that (I believe) allow me now to be writting you full of strengh and hope, I must to get in this argument. In the next posts I will make the attempt to clarify this complex subject.
