Low blood sugar causes cells to break down fat molecules. Glucagon, produced by the liver and insulin's antagonist, goes to the fat cells to break it down into its energy components to deliver more energy to the cells and body.

How does a free radical destroy animal tissue?

Free radicals have a free reactive oxygen on its molecule that wants to bind to something so it can be stable. Radicals attach to your cells and 'steal' and break down the lipid membrane that holds your cells together. This causes the cells to lyse (leak) and eventually causes tissue damage. Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) are molecules in our body that prevent this.
