SOD by Carlyle is a food supplement delivering 300 mg of superoxide dismutase with an activity of 2400 units per capsule, in a pack of 120 capsules supporting the cell's defences against oxidative stress. It is chosen by anyone looking for an enzymatic antioxidant rather than simply an antioxidant vitamin. Stating units alongside milligrams is what distinguishes enzyme supplements, because weight alone does not reveal potency.
What is the SOD enzyme?
SOD is short for superoxide dismutase, an enzyme present naturally in human cells and also found in plants and vegetables. It is classed among the antioxidant defence enzymes, which are the cell's first line in dealing with free radicals.
Benefits of the SOD enzyme
- Enzymatic antioxidant defence: The SOD enzyme acts directly on the superoxide radical.
- Mitochondrial support: Superoxide radicals arise chiefly during energy production inside the mitochondria.
- Joint health support: Oxidative stress is linked with joint comfort after exertion.
- Skin support: Skin cells are exposed to oxidative stress from repeated environmental factors.
- Post-exercise recovery support: Hard effort raises free radical production within muscle.
- Potency declared in units: The figure of 2400 units expresses enzymatic activity, not weight alone.
How the SOD enzyme works in the body
The SOD enzyme catalyses the conversion of the superoxide radical, the first free radical to arise inside the cell, into hydrogen peroxide and oxygen. Catalase and glutathione peroxidase then take over, breaking hydrogen peroxide down into water and oxygen. The enzyme works in the presence of cofactor metals at its active site, such as copper and zinc or manganese, depending on where inside the cell it sits.
What sets this formula apart
The Carlyle product states two figures together: 300 mg by weight and 2400 units of activity, and that pairing is the correct yardstick for comparing enzyme supplements. An enzyme is a functional protein, so weight alone says nothing about its capacity to work, and activity units are what measure its real action. The dosage form is a quick-release capsule swallowed once daily, and the formula is free from gluten, wheat, yeast and lactose.
Who is this product for?
- Anyone looking for enzymatic support for the antioxidant system.
- Anyone training at high intensity on a regular basis.
- Anyone exposed to demanding environmental factors such as pollution and repeated sun.
- Anyone wanting a product whose potency is declared in units, not weight alone.
How to use
Take one SOD capsule daily with water. Keeping to a fixed time each day helps, and taking the capsule with a meal suits anyone who finds supplements unsettle the stomach.

Frequently asked questions
What do 2400 activity units mean in an SOD supplement?
Activity units measure the amount of reaction the enzyme completes in a set time, not its weight. That is why the figure of 2400 units is stated alongside 300 mg on the pack.
What is the difference between SOD and vitamin antioxidants?
SOD is an enzyme that catalyses a repeated reaction on the superoxide radical specifically. Vitamin antioxidants are molecules that donate an electron and are consumed in the process.
Where does the SOD enzyme come from?
The SOD enzyme is present naturally inside the body's cells and is also found in plants and vegetables. SOD supplements supply it with a potency declared in units.
