DNA Deoxyribonucleic acid bases and phosphodiester backbones are susceptible to oxidative stress (inflammation), and peroxidation of these structures can cause strand breaks and cross-linking of the DNA and result in disrupted transcription, translation, and DNA replication It has been suggested that damaged genomic DNA of the spermatozoa can be transmitted to the offspring and lead to increased incidences of miscarriage, fetal anomalies, and birth defects They went on to show that treatment with Vitamin C and Glutathione reduced the level of hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine which is a measure of DNA oxidative damage

Moreover, it shields the skin from environmental stressors like pollution and UV radiation, which are notorious for inducing premature ageing and damage
Add a drizzle of olive oil to moisten
These ROS attack DNA, leading to oxidative damage ( If DNA damage is not repaired, it may result in genetic mutations, chromosomal abnormalities, and subsequently trigger cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and hereditary disorders
It is plausible that the molecular mediators of ferroptosis discussed in this review can initiate ferroptosis in neighboring, non-irradiated cells, though further research is necessary to understand this phenomenon
