You can read the article at https://archive.ph/oZcqu https://archive.ph/oZcqu It's not clear that this side effect is harmless.

  But so does breathing. How does that danger balance in relation to other factors?

      No, but I breathe oxygen radicals 24 hours a day and so do you. A study about the free radical content of the air in a bag of Lay's Potato Chips is pretty pointless despite it being proven to cause cell death.

        Your argument is that the study isn't worthwhile because it's "obvious" through other means? Have you met consumers? That Lays study seems valuable...
