Difference between Nutrition and Radical (chemistry)

Nutrition vs. Radical (chemistry)

Nutrition is the science that interprets the interaction of nutrients and other substances in food in relation to maintenance, growth, reproduction, health and disease of an organism. In chemistry, a radical (more precisely, a free radical) is an atom, molecule, or ion that has an unpaired valence electron.

Similarities between Nutrition and Radical (chemistry)

Nutrition and Radical (chemistry) have 21 things in common (in Unionpedia): Antioxidant, Antoine Lavoisier, Cancer, Chemistry, Combustion, Diabetes mellitus, Docosahexaenoic acid, Enzyme, Gout, Ion, Linoleic acid, Organic chemistry, Oxygen, Redox, Schizophrenia, Stroke, Tocopherol, Ultraviolet, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E.

Antioxidant

Antioxidants are molecules that inhibit the oxidation of other molecules.

Antoine Lavoisier

Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier (also Antoine Lavoisier after the French Revolution;; 26 August 17438 May 1794) CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) was a French nobleman and chemist who was central to the 18th-century chemical revolution and who had a large influence on both the history of chemistry and the history of biology.

Combustion

Combustion, or burning, is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.
