Toxicity and Oxidative Stress

By Nacira DJABALI

Toxicity, oxidative stress, free radicals, activated oxygen species (EOA) and antioxidants have become well-known terms in the medical context as well as in large corporations. In the early 2000s, these notions were generally only mentioned in scientific and technical events. But currently, the synthesis of chemicals, the pharmaceutical industry, medical research and analysis laboratories, the press and the general public have massively disseminated information relating to the actions of oxidative stress and the benefits of antioxidants. In recent years, the status of oxidative stress presents one or more threats to public health as well as significant anomalies concerning the general parameters of the living organism. Indeed, some values ​​measured in some people are not within the health standards. It is encouraged to optimize these values ​​by dietary adjustments and / or taking adequate supplements. Among the theories proposed to explain aging, stochastic theories attribute a preponderant role to reactive oxygen species.
