    GlossaryAntioxidant Activity (Antioxidation)

    neutralizes free radicals to prevent cellular damage and aging

    Antioxidant Activity refers to the ability of certain substances to neutralize free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can cause cellular damage and contribute to aging and diseases, including hair loss and alopecia. These substances, known as antioxidants, help protect cells by donating electrons to free radicals, thereby stabilizing them and preventing oxidative stress. This property is crucial in maintaining overall cellular health and can be found in various vitamins, minerals, and plant compounds.
