SOD - Potent Antioxidant

For those of you that take your health very seriously, I would like to share a quote from Dr. Howard Peiper from his book "Polysaccharides Polypeptides, Natures Healing Miracles".

"Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an extremely potent antioxidant enzyme that fights cellular damage from single oxygen molecules (also known as free radicals). As an enzyme, SOD has particular value helping to protect against cell destruction. Research suggests that SOD may be the most important enzyme in the body for the control of free radicals, keeping our cell membranes young, supple, and healthy(anti-aging). Although SOD has been sold as a supplement, research shows that oral SOD is destroyed by the digestive system before it can fight free radicals and repair damaged joints. This suggests that the most viable means of building healthy levels of SOD in the body would be to consume natural food substances that bind protein to SOD and therefore deliver it via the digestive system to the body, without being destroyed in the gut. Polysaccharides / polypeptides facilitate that process and increase the level of SOD in the body."
