Mechanism of Action
Glutathione (γ-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinyl-glycine) is the body's most abundant intracellular thiol antioxidant. It directly neutralizes reactive oxygen species, serves as cofactor for glutathione peroxidase and glutathione-S-transferase, and participates in phase II hepatic detoxification. The reduced/oxidized (GSH/GSSG) ratio is a primary marker of cellular redox state.
