Vitamin E is thought to protect your body against the harmful effects of free radicals. Antioxidants help combat free radicals by giving away one of their own electrons, stopping the electron stealing chain reaction (mentioned above under What Is A Free Radical). The antioxidant nutrients do not mutate into free radicals by giving away an electron because they are stable. They behave like 'bounty hunters' helping to stop harmful cell and tissue damage. Generally some free radicals occur as your body metabolises. Your immune system cells can deliberately create them to combat viruses and bacteria. However, environmental influences e.g.: cigarette smoke, pollution, radiation, and herbicides can all create free radicals. Under normal circumstances your body can deal with free radicals, but if antioxidants are not available, or if the free radicals become too abundant, damage to cells can result. What Is A Free Radical? Free radicals are very unstable and react fast with surrounding compounds, attempting to steal a missing needed electron to become stable. Free radicals usually attack the closest stable molecule, taking its electron. This molecule loses its electron and consequently turns into a free radical itself, starting a chain reaction. Once this process begins, it can multiply causing the disruption of a living cell.
