Abstract
The effect of electrochemically activated systems (ECAS) on the enzyme activity of the antioxidant system (catalase, peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase) appears to be a normalizing effect that increases supressed enzyme activity and decreases enhanced enzyme activity. Baseline enzyme activity is characterized by significant individual variations in both animals and humans. The effect of ECAS may be explained by the training effect of electroactivated systems due to the excess of electrons, with the ECAS redox potential being negative.
