И сходное значение слова медицина – знать, понимать, постигать, различать. Именно постижение и понимание процессов, происходящих в организме пациента, является основанием распознавания болезни и выбора лечения недуга. Современная медицинская наука имеет две ипостаси: собственно медицина как врачевание больного человека и здравоохранение как комплекс общественных организационно-управленческих мероприятий, направленных на поддержание общественного здоровья. При несомненной синергичности этих двух гуманитарных оснований, следует признать, что доминирование общественных форм медицины оказывает тормозящее индивидуальную медицину действие. При этом для личности именно индивидуальная забота о здоровье является приоритетной. Современные научные мнения основываются на стереотипах, выведенных из статистических заключений, а не на понимании
ключевые слова: активные формы кислорода, антиоксиданты Электрон-транспортная цепь.

THREE QUESTIONS FROM THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY: WHAT TO DO ABOUT OXIDATIVE STRESS; WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF PREMATURE AGING; WHETHER YOU NEED TO TAKE ANTIOXIDANTS
Vadim. G. Tsapaev
T he original meaning of the word medicine is to know, understand, comprehend, and distinguish. It is the comprehension and understanding of the processes occurring in the patient’s body that is the basis for recognizing the disease and choosing treatment for the disease. Modern medical science has two forms: medicine itself as the treatment of a sick person and healthcare as a complex of public organizational and managerial measures aimed at maintaining public health. Given the undoubted synergy of these two humanitarian foundations, it should be recognized that the dominance of social forms of medicine has an inhibitory effect on individual medicine. At the same time, individual health care is a priority for the individual.
Modern scientific opinions are based on stereotypes derived from statistical conclusions, and not on an understanding of the pathogenetic mechanismsof diseases and their healing. This is largely facilitated by the uncontrolled circulation of unprofessional pseudoscientific information on the Internet and the media.
As a result, ideas about the essence of diseases and methods of therapy are formed in the form of primitive clichés of the “good and bad” type. Such stereotypes include views on oxidative processes in the body and especially on antioxidants: “Reactive oxygen species are very bad, antioxidants are good.”
In this article we would like to present a scientific point of view on this issue, drawing on the achievements of physiology and biochemistry, especially since this section of science is intensively developing at the present time.
keywords: reactive oxygen species, antioxidants, electron transport chain.
