Please correct me if I’m wrong because I might be ridiculously wrong, but isn’t it that the oxygen is the reason we’re wilting with age like plants?

Partly yea, unbound oxygen is very excitable and is capable of causing DNA dmg! But everything causes damaging your DNA! Light, heat, viral/bacterial infections, time, stress… Everything!
But you can limit the very first one with anti-oxidants, which is strictly not capable of doing anything else but binding unbound oxygen! Ripe bananas contain a bunch of them
