how does lack of blood affect oxidative metabolism?
And He scores!!!!
Victims of circumstance owe it to fate. Victims of choice owe it to themselves.

The key to this is the term oxidative. Oxidative metabolism is a process that requires oxygen. In the absence of oxygen, the body shifts into an anaerobic mode, which results in a build up of lactic acid.
With no blood, you have no oxygen, ergo, oxidative metabolism slows and/or ceases.

Blood carries oxygen to tissues. reduction of blood flow will adversely affect any oxydative metabolism and may cause tissue necrosis
