Answer:
your body and the environment that can react with other cellular molecules in your body such as protein, DNA and lipids.
When it does that, it damages molecules and it’s what causes disease and inflammation.
An antioxidant is a molecule, as the term suggests, that defends you against those oxidants.
It actually intercepts those oxidants so they can’t react with your cellular macromolecules, therefor protecting Examples of oxidants include:
hydrogen peroxide.
ozone.
nitric acid.
sulfuric acid.
oxygen.
sodium perborate.
nitrous oxide.
potassium nitrate.

An oxidant is a reactant that oxidizes or removes electrons from other reactants during a redox reaction.Examples of oxidants include:
hydrogen peroxide, ozone, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, oxygen, sodium perborate, nitrous oxide.......etc.
Nascent oxygen is formed by peroxide in presence of sunlight or light energy.
H2O2 → [O] + H2O
