What it is

Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) is a enzyme & antioxidant supplement. Superoxide dismutase is the body's frontline antioxidant enzyme, here in gliadin- or melon-protected oral forms for absorption. Used in adult dosing protocols in India and internationally, it is sold as a single-ingredient supplement.

How it works

SOD converts superoxide radicals into hydrogen peroxide (then handled by catalase/glutathione peroxidase); protected oral SOD also upregulates the body's own antioxidant enzymes. Effects are dose-dependent and typically measurable within 2-6 weeks.

Who should take it

Adults seeking primary-antioxidant-enzyme and oxidative-stress support.

Avoid / careful

Plain SOD is digested — choose gliadin/protected forms (gliadin contains gluten; melon-SOD is gluten-free). Generally well tolerated.

When to take it

Morning
Noon
Evening
Night

How to take it

With food
Empty stomach
Before food

FAQs

Frequently asked

What is the main benefit of oral Superoxide Dismutase?
Oral SOD primarily acts as an antioxidant enzyme, neutralizing harmful superoxide radicals and reducing oxidative stress at the cellular level.
Why is protection (e.g., gliadin or melon) important for oral SOD?
Without protection, SOD is degraded by stomach acid and digestive enzymes, rendering it ineffective. Protected forms ensure it reaches the bloodstream intact.
How long does it take to see results from taking SOD?
The effects of SOD are dose-dependent, with noticeable benefits typically observed within 2 to 6 weeks of consistent daily intake.
