PEMF raises antioxidant enzyme levels in injured muscle, keeping oxidative stress in check

PEMF treatment increased antioxidant protein levels (superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase) in injured skeletal muscle, controlling reactive oxygen species production.

What this means for you

When muscles are stressed or injured, the body produces excess free radicals that slow recovery and increase soreness. Higher levels of antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase and catalase help neutralize that oxidative load — supporting faster, cleaner recovery and less lingering inflammation after hard effort or injury.
