Thanks, dfs.

Looks like you liver is just fine functionally and your free radicals are still not being well reversed. Your internal antioxident systems are working overtime as well.

How old are you?

Namaste`

Thanks, dfs.

Boy! That is a lot of free-radical stress for that age.

I would become a student of antioxidents and the reversal of free-radicals.

Let us know what you learn.

OK, I looked in the glossary and all the articles pages under those topics and I don't see anything. I will look in the archives, but I'm wondering what you could recommend I could read in the meantime.

Thanks, dfs.

I have not looked, since I keep up in other ways, but I would be amazed if there were not many books available at your health food store covering anti-oxidents and free-radicals.

I am also sure that your lending librarian could point you toward a wealth of recent publications covering the same subject. MY information is acattered over 20 years in monthly summaries of the world literature.

Let us know what you find and I will archive the information for others.

If you post a message to the attention of GregD the microbiologist from Holland, he might be able to point you to the most lastest info on the subject. The last time I communicated with him on this board, he had just finished a study on anti oxydants. Good luck
