Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a copper-dependent enzyme that catalyzes
the removal of superoxide radicals from the body. Superoxide radicals
are generated during normal metabolism, as well as when white blood
cells attack invading bacteria and viruses (a process called
phagocytosis). If not eliminated quickly, superoxide radicals cause
damage to cell membranes.
