GliSODin is the first orally-effective
SOD supplement
SOD can be derived from a number of
sources, including wheat, melons, and most commonly from
animal (bovine) sources. Yet when SOD from these sources is
consumed, it is destroyed in the digestive system by
stomach acids and digestive enzymes.
Using a medium that mimicked the GI
tract, scientists sampled SOD levels over time. Free
SODactivity was totally destroyed within the first 10
minutes. However, when the SOD was encased in gliadin wheat
protein, its enzymatic activity remained intact. The
controlled release of SOD was seen after 30 minutes and
reached a maximum release between 80 and 100 minutes.
French scientists at Laboratories Isocell
discovered a method to protect SOD from digestion.
GliSODin, the only orally-effective SOD
supplement, is protected by international patents and U.S.
patents 6,045,809 and 6,426,068B1, with additional patents
pending.
