Uric Acid May Protect Against Oxidative Stress
Uric Acid is a natural antioxidant.
Studies on birds showed that the antioxidant Uric Acid may protect birds against oxidative stress.
Broiler chicks, fed supplements with purines, which increase the Uric Acid Serum concentration, had lower levels of the leukocyte oxidative activity.
This study shows that higher Uric Acid concentrations can protect birds from oxidative stress, and the protection from the oxidative stress can in its turn cause a slower tissue aging.
CONCLUSION 4:
High levels of Uric Acid may cause a slower tissue aging (including skin and everything else in the body) in the people with psoriasis, when compared to other people.
Therefore the people with psoriasis may look younger than the people without psoriasis.
