Free radical fragmentation reactions are unlikely candidates as termination for chain reactions. Why?
Are there any negative effects of using antioxidants to terminate chain reactions?
While antioxidants are generally considered beneficial for preventing damage from free radicals, excessive consumption of antioxidants may actually have negative health effects. This is because they can interfere with the body's natural antioxidant systems and lead to an imbalance in oxidative stress.
