The naughty pathway is a bad one. It's called the quinom pathway, which starts with Q. And so to end in that pathway continues on, it can lead to DNA damage,. The more holes you have, the more higher chance you get for mutation. foods high in resveratrol, your flavonoids. broccoli sprouts activate two ingredients to become something called sulforaphane.
