PEMF raises a key muscle antioxidant enzyme (SOD2) by ~22% in skeletal muscle cells
PEMF stimulation increased superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) expression by approximately 22% in human skeletal muscle cells, an antioxidant enzyme that promotes skeletal muscle regeneration following injury.
What this means for you
SOD2 is one of your body's frontline defenses against the cellular damage that slows muscle recovery after exercise or injury. When its activity goes up, muscles are better equipped to repair and rebuild. This kind of antioxidant support is what most people notice as less soreness and a quicker return to feeling strong.
The published research
Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields Induce Skeletal Muscle Cell Repair by Sustaining the Expression of Proteins Involved in the Response to Cellular Damage and Oxidative Stress.
