Hell, simply abstaining from sugar brings more health benefits than antioxidants. All disease and illness stems from sugar. That's why all of you who eat it are so sickly and pussified.

Says the baby who thinks just saying stupid shit makes it true. Being in ketosis and doing IF provides many more health benefits than the mythical ones people believe antioxidants do.
Or less people.a little less (probably a lot less) animal farming is necessary to maintain a stable biosphere and quality of life for humans at current population levels.
so theres that
I'm aware of all the wonderful things people think getting in more antioxidants can do for them. I just don't think taking in exogenous antioxidants makes as much a difference as, say, taking in less of that which causes the oxidative stress. Likely it is way inferior to that which the body produces itself. And likely, in spite of the antioxidant craze and everybody reaching for those supplements, the fact that cancer and other diseases continue to rise shows these exogenous antioxidants don't do much at all for people. Possibly even true they do actually do more harm as some sources have reported.people are interested in antioxidants because cancer. and cancer is ubiquitous and almost inevitable given enough time.
whats more, cancer is not just one thing. its an accumulation of mutations in a cell until it becomes a sort of rogue organism, separate from you, diving uncontrollably, recruiting a vascular network, and parasitizing your body.
there isn't really anything that directly causes cancer. rather, there is a whole list of shit that can cause the mutations that lead to cancer. free radicals are one of those things. so people are interested in them.
Or less people.
