The Science 

Muscle soreness and discomfort are common after exercise, prolonged sitting or inactivity, or after a new physical activity. According to research conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one in four American adults sit for more than eight hours a day and 40% are physically inactive.

Delayed onset muscle soreness, resulting in uncomfortable and stiff muscles, is common after unaccustomed or strenuous exercise. While muscle strains induced by exercise are quite common in athletes, individuals with a lack of muscle fitness, and weak muscles as a result of aging, muscle and joint discomfort can also be the result of free radical damage and oxidative stress. 

Though essential for survival, oxygen is also involved in toxic reactions that are a constant threat to our well-being. Most of the potentially harmful effects of oxygen are believed to be the result of the formation and activity of free radicals. Oxidative stress, encompassing oxidative damage to proteins, is brought on by the imbalance between free radical production and available antioxidants. Balance is of utmost importance for proper physiological function. 

Excessive free radicals from a normal body metabolism that includes glycation, for example, are believed to be major contributors to aging, muscle soreness and joint discomfort. Studies have shown that intense aerobic exercise can induce oxidative stress. Our body burns fuel at a faster rate with high-intensity physical exercise, which causes rapid chemical reactions that make free radicals at a faster rate. Glycation occurs when sugar bonds with a protein or lipid to form compounds known as advanced glycation end products (AGE). These molecules speed up the oxidative process and damage cells. Research suggests that the accumulation of glycation end products in joint tissues cause joint stiffness and discomfort. Our body’s response to oxidative stress includes redness, soreness, stiffness or general discomfort.
