BHT stops this autocatalytic reaction by converting peroxy radicals to hydroperoxides. It effects this function by donating a hydrogen atom: RO 2 • + ArOH → ROOH + ArO• RO 2 • + ArO• → nonradical products. where R is alkyl or aryl, and where ArOH is BHT or related phenolic antioxidants. Each BHT consumes two peroxy radicals.
BHT benefits and adverse effects are expected to be the same for bioidentical and synthetic hormones. [29] Dosages used in BHT can be as high as ten times the oral dose provided by comparable HRT regimens; the hormones used are known to adversely impact biological markers of cardiovascular disease and may produce a substantially higher risk of ...
