ok, so in summary free radicals are atoms with an unpaired electron.
now, and this is just a shot in the dark, what if you made a lot of
electrons available to all atoms, or in the specific area of the electron
transport chain where most free radicals are made? flood those areas with
extra electrons so that the free radical doesn't pull it off of a healthy
atom from a healthy tissue.
can't the free radical just pick up an electron by itself, or does it
absolutely have to pull it from a somatic cell? i'll call this the
electron flood hypothesis.
