Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced as a consequence of metabolic processes. When antioxidant capabilities are overwhelmed by the burden of ROS multiple cellular damages occur leading to "oxidative stress". TetraSOD® stimulates antioxidant defenses via activation of Nrf2, the master antioxidant switch. Thus, TetraSOD® induces a coordinated activation of the primary antioxidant systems (SOD, CAT and GPX), helping to improve many physiological processes:
- Immune response modulation
- Healthy aging process
- Prevention of inflammatory processes
