Modern pharmacological studies and clinical practices have demonstrated that free radicals produced by normal organ activities will cause chain reactions after exceeding a certain amount in the body, and a series of biological reactions will eventually lead to the occurrence of a variety of diseases, such as cancer, atherosclerosis, hypertension, cataracts, arthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis (Moreno-Ortega et al., 2020;Raja et al., 2020;Wu et al., 2020). Therefore, antioxidant research has become the forefront of medical research and a hot spot for disease prevention and treatment.
