Free radicals can damage vital cell components, and our bodies produce them naturally as we metabolize food. So, it stands to reason if we eat lots and lots of food, we’ll make tons of radicals. And put ourselves at risk of becoming seriously obese, and developing diabetes. All of which is bad.

自由基会破坏生命活体细胞成分，当体内食物产生代谢的同时，我们的身体就会自然而然地生成这些自由基。因此，显而易见的是，如果我们吃太多太多的食物，我们将会制造很多自由基。这样下去，就会置我们于过度肥胖的危险境地，进而发展为糖尿病。所有这一切都（对健康）不利。
