Keep seeing posts suggesting high doses of artificial supplements.
We have been at this for a long time in the forums and it needs to be restated, in RP's words.

Running the oxidative process through the mitochondria very fast happens to be an anti-oxidative process in terms of avoiding toxic free radicals.
And so, the faster you burn oxygen usefully, oxidizing sugars, the less you have to worry about taking care of the free radical toxic products that really develop when you slow down the respiratory process of burning fats, and especially polyunsaturated fats.
Vitamin E and vitamin C, and uric acid, which is produced in our body, is a major antioxidant.
But the marketing of the idea of antioxidants has created a big confusion in the area.
The antioxidants in our body have to fit together with uric acid, which is naturally there, and the enzymes, which naturally break down free radicals.
And if you put things in that don't fit, an apparent antioxidant in a test tube can become a pro-oxidant in the body.
Things have to fit together so that vitamin A and vitamin E lock together, and vitamin E and vitamin C lock together, uric acid and vitamin C lock together.
And the glucose and other sugars have to be streaming through the systems of enzymes turning into carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide has to be flowing out of the cell properly.
The whole antioxidant system is really one piece, and if you try to stuff in any super antioxidants like they're selling as health products, you're likely to create more oxidation than you had without it.
A recent publication saw that cataracts are twice as common in men over the age of 65 who took big supplements of vitamin E and vitamin C. Almost doubled their rate of cataracts.
