This article puts to doubt that ROS a toxic molecule that does harm to the cells in the body is the cause of aging. Researches did tests on different specimen by shutting down their genes that break down ROS. Apparently on some tests the specimen lived long while on other tests it did not. So this mean whatever is the cause of aging it is not just isolated to ROS buildup. It is speculated that it primarily havs something to do with Mitochondria. The power plant of the cell that provides energy to get your body going. I hope you found this article interesting. Please post your comments.
