    Glossary Oxidative Stress

    imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants causing cellular damage

    Oxidative stress refers to an imbalance between free radicals (unstable molecules that can damage cells) and antioxidants (molecules that neutralize free radicals) in the body. This imbalance can lead to cellular damage, also known as oxidative damage or oxidative injury, and is implicated in various conditions, including aging, cancer, and hair loss disorders like alopecia.
