Re:Why are plants green? To reduce the noise in photosynthesis by Ekaros on Sunday October 02, 2022 @03:10AM (#33053679)
When thinking about it it seems pretty weird. Wouldn't most free radicals either enter via lungs or digestive tracts? And those will have plenty of stuff to react before any anti-oxidant can get to work... And anti-oxidants spreading through body on other hand seems bit worrying.

Most free radicals are products of reactions inside the body and the body does have mechanisms to deal with them, even if not 100% sometimes.
