Ok, so my first chemistry/biology question that has been bugging me for a while is:
How do antioxidants work?
Because I was thinking about the significance of the word. Oxidant means that some molecule lost electrons, thus it has a positive charge...so if an oxidant has a positive charge, wouldn't an antioxidant have a negative charge, i.e. an anion?
So, maybe antioxidants and oxidants combine to neutralize each other and the tissue (cancer?) that was formed???
Anyways...
