I know you guys have heard a lot about free radicals but today, I want to post more but still generally about free radicals. So I hope you’ll enjoy and got more knowledge from this post J         First of all, we have to know what free radical is. Free radicals are atoms or groups of atoms with an odd (unpaired) number of electrons and can be formed when oxygen interacts with certain molecules. Once formed these highly reactive radicals can start a chain reaction. This reaction can cause cell mutation, and this cell mutation can lead to premature aging, cancer, tumor, cardiovascular and other degenerative disease depending on what cells does the cell mutation happen.       Free radicals not only from outside our body like pollution, foods usually meats, drinks, radiation and uv lights but also from stress and metabolism system in o...

Why vitamin C is connected with tannin?

Heme iron, which makes up 40 percent of the iron in meat, poultry, and fish, is well absorbed. Non-heme iron, 60 percent of the iron in animal tissue and all the iron in plants (fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts) is less well absorbed. As we know now that tannin inhibit the absorbtion of i...
