Description
L-Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide composed of glutamine, cysteine, and glycine. It is one of the body’s most essential intracellular antioxidants, studied for its role in detoxification, oxidative stress reduction, and cellular defense. Research focuses on its potential benefits in immune health, skin brightening, and mitochondrial protection.
Benefits
- Powerful antioxidant — studied for neutralizing free radicals and protecting cells from oxidative damage.
- Detoxification support — explored for aiding liver function and toxin clearance.
- Immune health — linked to enhanced white blood cell function and resilience.
- Skin health — research interest in brightening and reducing oxidative pigmentation.
- Mitochondrial protection — supports cellular energy and redox balance.
What researchers look at
- Mechanism: redox cycling between reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) forms.
- Glutathione’s role in liver detox pathways (Phase II conjugation).
- Skin tone modulation and oxidative stress reduction in human studies.
- Mitochondrial and immune function in aging and chronic stress models.
