Free radicals can alter the fatty layers in the cell membranes. It can also damage the DNA within cells which can develop to a serious illness. Damaged DNA and cell membranes can make the skin lose its elasticity and suppleness at a faster rate. Thereby, the skin ages faster than normal. Free radicals can also cause cross-linking of the collagen fibers. When the collagen fibers are cross-linked, the skin can sag and wrinkles may form.

Free radicals can damage any part of the human body. From the ovaries to the skin, to the brain and lens of the eye, you name it. In fact, free radicals have been implicated in disorders such as cataracts, degenerative arthritis, male infertility, female infertility and metabolic disorders.
