ALINESS Superoxide Dismutase (Tetra Sod) (Antioxidant) 25 mg 60 small vegan tablets

Many physiological processes of aerobic organisms produce free radicals (reactive oxygen species - ROS). Oxygen is gradually reduced also under the influence of external factors: the use of drugs, UV radiation, high temperature, smoking, processed food.

While the presence of reactive oxygen species is necessary in some intracellular processes, an imbalance between the production of free radicals and their inactivation leads to a state of oxidative stress.

The human body has natural defense mechanisms against the negative effects of free radicals, one of them are cellular enzymes: superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), non-enzymatic free radical scavengers are also used, including: vitamins C and E

Aliness dietary supplement contains both the enzyme superoxide dismutase (TetraSOD®) and vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) in high doses.

Superoxide dismutase (SOD) - is the first
and a key enzyme of the body's antioxidant barrier - it catalyzes the dismutation of the superoxide anion, transforming it into hydrogen peroxide, which in turn is reduced to neutral products (water and oxygen) with the participation of catalase and glutathione peroxidase:

Although SOD occurs naturally in the body, its level decreases with age, which reduces the ability to defend against the harmful effects of free radicals.

TetraSOD® superoxide dismutase comes from a natural source - dried sea algae Tetraselmis chuii produced in a patented technology of closed bioreactors inducing the accumulation of bioactive compounds (SOD).
