Antioxidants are natural substances that appear to fight damage caused by molecules called free radicals. As a person ages, free radicals can build up in nerve cells, causing damage that might contribute to Alzheimer's disease. In this study, researchers will measure concentrations of two antioxidants in the brain, ascorbate and glutathione, using a novel method.
