Abstract:
As a mechanism of the ageing becomes clear by the scientific study, it has been believed that oxidative stress is an accelerator of the ageing. Still it is too critical to take antioxidants in large quantities for anti-ageing, and it should be needed to clarify the efficacy of anti-oxidative therapy by the scientific evidence. In this chapter, we explained it to positioning of the antioxidant for general anti-ageing strategy, Sara about the present conditions of the molecular mechanism elucidation study on effects of the antioxidant.
