Glutathione, a key player in meeting these demands, acts as a potent antioxidant
Whether you are looking to support your liver, boost your immune response, or simply protect your cellular energy, glutathione is a foundational element of any wellness routine

[20] [7] This conversion is illustrated by the reduction of peroxides (via the sulfenate as an intermediate): GSH + R 2 O 2 GSOR + ROH GSOR + GSH GSSG + ROH Net reaction: 2 GSH + R 2 O 2 GSSG + 2 ROH (R = H, alkyl) and with free radicals, forming glutathionyl radicals (GS ) that may dimerize to disulfide: GSH + R RH + GS 1/2 GSSG Thiyl radicals (such as glutathionyl radicals) are themselves oxidizing species in biology, with a single-electron reduction potential sufficient for oxidation of nucleic acids, proteins and polyunsaturated lipids
Note: These higher doses are typically used for specific periods and should be discussed with a healthcare professional, especially if you plan to stay at that level for more than a few months
