Reducing Agent = a substance which "gives" electrons to another substance causing that substance to be reduced; a reducing agent is itself oxidized.

Reducing Agent = a substance which gives electrons to another substance causing that substance to be reduced; a reducing agent is itself oxidized. Oxidation = a loss of electrons; an element which loses electrons is said to be oxidized. Reduction = a gain of electrons; an element which gains electrons is said to be reduced.
