-Can you take tons of antioxidants, when some processes requires the presence of the reactive oxidant species in order to function?  In other words, human body has evolved to include reactive oxygen species.+Can you take tons of antioxidants, when some processes rely on reactive oxidant species (ROS) to function?  The human body has evolved to utilize ROS, and certain physiological processes depend on their presence.
  
-For example, growth is triggered by the presence of ROS, such as those that accumulate after heavy exercise. ROS signals the need for muscle growth and for additional mitochondria.  Antioxidants consumed in large quantity can block this growth.+For instance, ROS accumulation after intense exercise triggers growth signals, prompting muscle growth and increased mitochondria production. Consuming large quantities of antioxidants can potentially block this growth mechanism.
  
-Antioxidants can improve [[https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/10-benefits-of-green-tea-extract#8.-May-benefit-exercise-performance-and-recovery |exercise performance]].  ROS signals may end up being the same as the intensity of exercise may be greater.+However, antioxidants can improve [[https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/10-benefits-of-green-tea-extract#8.-May-benefit-exercise-performance-and-recovery |exercise performance]].  So, while taking antioxidants, ROS signal levels may end up being the same as the intensity of exercise may be greater.
  
 There are many antioxidants, but ones that have been studied for supplementation include Vitamins, CoQ10, Polyphenols, Selenium, and Melatonin. There are many antioxidants, but ones that have been studied for supplementation include Vitamins, CoQ10, Polyphenols, Selenium, and Melatonin.
