Dietary iron concentration may influence aging process by altering oxidative stress in tissues of adult rats.
Iron is an essential element. However, in its free form, iron participates in redox-reactions, leading to the production of free radicals that increase oxidative stress and the risk of damaging processes. Living organisms have an efficient mechanism that regulates iron absorption according to their...
