Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) is a key antioxidant that is naturally present in all aerobic living organisms. It is the only antioxidant used as a drug (Orgotein®, Pegrogortein® and Ormentein®) for its anti-inflammatory properties in the treatments of high-energy radiotherapy, sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis.
SOD B Extramel® is obtained from a unique selection of French variety of melon fruits (Curcumis melo L.) exclusively grown since 1991. SOD B Extramel® is produced according to a green and natural patented process involving only physical steps without any solvent, ensuring its traceability, quality, and efficacy. It is also naturally rich in a cocktail of bioactive molecules such as vitamins and minerals.

How does it work?
As a primary antioxidant, SOD acts differently compared to well-known secondary antioxidants such as Vitamin E, C and Polyphenols. SOD is an enzyme that stays intact at the end of the dismutation reaction and is ready to be involved in another free radical dismutation, this specificity makes SOD a unique and long-lasting antioxidant.
The production of free radicals is a cascade reaction starting with O2 molecules being transformed into the most reactive molecule O2-, which leads to the synthesis of numerous secondary radicals (ROO.). Most antioxidants only serve to quench the ROO. Molecules but do not control the production of the precursor species. SOD can neutralize the most reactive oxygen species O2-. Moreover, SOD is also able to trigger the body to produce more endogenous antioxidants.
Since SOD is an enzyme, wouldn’t it get digested?
SOD B Extramel® is microencapsulated in order to provide an enteric-coating protection to prevent its degradation during the digestive process. The patented C3 microencapsulation technology enables SOD B Extramel® to reach the intestinal tract with the guaranteed highest SOD activity. Once in the intestinal tract, SOD B Extramel® is released from the coating to provide its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

What other health benefits does SOD B Extramel® have?
Oxidative stress can impact multiple aspects of your health. When theres an imbalance in your body and free radicals exceed antioxidants, there can be lasting harmful effects. Hypertension, Atherosclerosis, Heart failure, Stroke, Cardiovascular Disease, Fatigue and Neurological disease has been linked to oxidative stress. SOD B Extramel®, has a few clinical studies demonstrating its effect against Physical Performance, Stress and Fatigue.
Oxidative Stress can alter neurotransmission, neuronal function, and overall brain activity. Therefore, brain oxidative damage might be also a plausible pathogenic factor for certain multifactorial neurological diseases including neuropsychiatric troubles. SOD B Extramel®, unlike other SOD, has been shown to be able to cross the blood brain barrier, effectively defending the brain against oxidative stress, and thus reducing stress, physical and mental fatigue.
