The leaves and stems of the sage plant also contain antioxidant enzymes, including SOD (superoxide dismutase) and peroxidase.
When combined, these three components of sage ~ flavonoids, phenolic acids, and oxygen-handling enzymes ~ give it a unique capacity for stabilizing oxygen-related metabolism and preventing oxygen-based damage to the cells.
