ooh, then I must have gotten the terms wrong…

What I was thinking were the free radicals that are generated during basically most oxygen related reactions in the body, I thought that was called oxidation (at least, in terms of the body).

So, you know anything about how (or if) antioxidants are used against free radicals?

Pretty sure oxidation plays a major role in aging, but can’t tell you the exact mechanism, I have no idea about it.

But about the blood rust idea, I don’t think that can work, cause we don’t have just iron particles that can directly interact with oxygen just floating around in our blood, we have a complex (I.e. hemoglobin) that contains significant amounts of iron, which somehow makes it really good for binding to and carrying oxygen.

Deviating a bit, carbon monoxide poisoning is really akin to suffcation iirc, cause it binds and occupies the hemoglobin, effectively reducing the amount of oxygen that can be carried by your blood.

However, do fact check me, I might be wrong about something…

Edit: BTW, it seems that “oxidation” might not be the right term to use here, so do understand that I am referring to free radicals here.

On the topic, as oxidation is a pretty prevalent negative side effect of living, our body has multiple mechanisms to deal with it, no? So my question is: where do the “antioxidants” that we can eat come into the picture here? Are they like preventing oxidation from even occurring, or are they like the shields that our cells use to protect themselves from oxidative stress, or what have you?

"Deleting data…”

God, down to the exact number…

Same.

Now the only way to use it is gangsta style if you don’t wanna die.

oh thank god

god don’t tell me its loss

Hmmm…

@SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com, what story do you see here?

Lamps are the only reason the moths aren’t actively evolving into a higher form. They are the only reason we are safe.

This is why I prefer the genie in the meme where he keeps asking questions to clarify every possible scenario. At least I won’t get something I don’t want in that scenario.

Don’t skin walkers try to steal your skinin order for shape shift into you? Plus, I don’t know if they kill you first before stealing, but I was under the assumption one dies after an encounter with them.

You know what, sure, I’ll be a little animal, not like it could get any worse, right?

At this point, you really should know that you need to dissolve them like that movie, and unplug the drain.

Now that I think about it I can’t really remember much about where exactly I saw that scene…all I remember is that the detectives, after investigating the motel room in which he dissolved the body,their only clue was the tape residue left on the walls (he covered every inch of the place with plastic sheets).

“Squeeze my handle harder, and I might just tell you what class type the fire is.”

Vertical tabs are a godsend.

Someone give me @simple’s address, I need to send them something.

Taking DMs?
