Super Oxide Dismutase (SOD)

Siberian Chaga extract contains an extraordinary amount of SOD, Super Oxide Dismutase. SODs are enzymes that keep cell membranes supple and healthy -- providing the body with more power and amounts than mega doses of vitamin supplements (A, C, and E combined). SOD enzymes decrease as we age, and depending on genetic predisposition.

SOD Testing

We quantified the levels of antioxidant activity of SOD enzymes and determined that Wildcrafted Siberian Chaga had values that are extraordinarily high in comparison to other medicinal mushrooms and popular juices having high antioxidant content.
