The process of aging is caused by different factors, but the most common are environmental stressors (external to us). One of these environmental stressors includes what is known as oxidative stress-induced aging. What this simply means is that even though we require oxygen whenever we breathe, an excess can actually be toxic to our cells making them unhealthy.2
