The miracle of antioxidant- By Harun Yahya
Antioxidant is a chemical molecule which forms a shield against molecules called “free radicals” that attack cells and immune system.
Antioxidants that are produced by somatic cells hinder the disruptive effects of free radicals which can cause a great risk to the body. It also delays the chain reactions which can cause abiotrophy and many other diseases.
There are many factors that lead to the formation of free radicals. These include: Petrochemical products, X an UV rays, cigarette smoke, air pollution, even preservative substances and additives in some food and drinks.
Some enzymes are tasked against these substances which are extremely harmful for our body under normal conditions. When we breathe and take air into our lungs, these enzymes convert the harmful effects of free radicals into harmless intermediates. The enzymes in charge of this process are catalase, superoxide dismutase(SOD) and glutathione peroxidase.
Similar to cleaning workers in a nuclear reactor doing their job meticulously, catalase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase change the dangerous effects into less harmful ones during inhalation process.
Apart from enzymes, the vitamins E and C, the molecules called carotene and glutathione are also effective in eliminating the harmful effects of free radicals. Many vegetables and fruits, walnut, hazelnut, vegetable oils, red and white meat, fish and cereals are rich in antioxidant.
Creation of a great number of healthy foods and protective molecules to eliminate the harmful effects of free radicals, are undoubtedly a great blessing for human beings.
Humans are neither aware of the presence of free radicals posing a threat to their health, nor have the power to eliminate the reactions caused by it on their own. The intensive precautionary actions of antioxidants which exist in molecules and foods—provided for humans by Allah—conduce them to stay alive and healthy. Absence of antioxidant enzymes causes diseases and death. The existence of these enzymes also constitutes an evidence that there can’t be any gradual formation as the theory of evolution claims.
Indeed, these enzymes are able to work perfectly only when all their components are intact. In other words, a slight change in their perfect structure can cause terminal illnesses and deaths. This shows that the enzymes with their flawless structure, are created by Allah, the Almighty by His command “Be”.
He has given you everything you have asked Him for. If you tried to number Allah’s blessings, you could never count them. Man is indeed wrongdoing, ungrateful. (Surah Ibrahim: 34)

ALLAH CREATED EARTH FOR US
"He (Allah) is the Creator of the heavens and the earth..." (Surat ash-Shura: 11)
Allah is the One Who created earth, the Sun, stars and Moon. So how did all the living things on earth come into being? Imagine a huge planet with its surface completely empty. There are no humans or animals, no plants or insects.
Earth has been decorated in a lot of detail for living things to survive. Allah is the One Who has given earth all these details. Otherwise none of us would have been able to live, neither you, nor your parents, or indeed any of your friends would have been here.
Let's consider how Allah created the earth so that living things can survive:
1. Think about… how orderly everything in the universe is. The sun has been put in the exact position from which it could warm us and give us light at the same time. If there were no sun, there would not have been one living thing on earth. Neither us, nor the animals nor any other creatures would have been able to live.
2. Allah has also distanced the sun from earth to just the right extent. If earth was a little bit closer to the sun, the heat would have scorched it and we would not have been able to live. If earth was a little more distant from the sun, then glaciers would have covered it and again, few living things would have been able to survive. This is one of the reasons why there is no life on other planets, because they are either too close to the sun or too distant from it.
3. As you know, living things need to breathe in order to live. We need oxygen in the air so that we can breathe. Exactly the right amount of oxygen exists in the air so that human beings can breathe. If there were a little bit more or a little bit less, neither we, nor the animals, nor the plants would have survived, because, as we have already said, we need to breathe in order to live. For this we need oxygen.
4. One of the most important things that make it possible for us to survive is water. No organism can live without water. For this reason, Allah has created some parts of earth as water. Three quarters of earth's surface is covered with water. However, there is no water on any of the other planets nor is there any water on the moon that you see at night. The essentials for living things are only available on earth.
Many events on earth make it possible for us to live. If even only one of these events doesn't take place, no living thing would be left on earth. So, is it possible that these thousands of events have come together spontaneously and formed such a place as earth? Of course not. Not even one of these events could happen by chance. Allah has created earth for human beings. And, because of this, earth is the most suitable place for us.
