Changes in protein consumption, including reducing protein levels but remaining within the safe levels, may alter plasma glutathione synthesis levels contributing to a reduction in antioxidant capacity
However, it is not risk-free
In the US, many insurance plans require patients to attempt conservative treatments before they will consider coverage for invasive procedures
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) catalyzes the dismutation reaction of superoxide anion radicals: 2- + 2- = 2 + 22 During the reaction, hydrogen peroxide is formed, which is able to inactivate SOD, so SOD always works in tandem with catalase, which quickly and efficiently breaks down hydrogen peroxide into neutral compounds: 2H2O2 = 2H2O + O2 The property of SOD to reduce the formation of peroxynitrite is due to its ability to reduce the concentration of the superoxide radical in the cell, which also limits its availability for the Fenton reaction
