Abstract

This article explores the biological and medical significance of antioxidants in maintaining the oxidation-reduction (redox) balance in the human body and their role in preventing chronic diseases. Oxidative stress, caused by an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants, is one of the key factors contributing to aging and the development of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, diabetes, cancer, and neurodegenerative conditions. The paper discusses the sources of natural and synthetic antioxidants, their biochemical mechanisms, and the results of recent research on their health-protective effects. The findings emphasize the necessity of balanced nutrition rich in antioxidant compounds to improve overall health and reduce the risk of oxidative stress-related diseases.
