Glutathione (also known as GSH) is a naturally occurring tripeptide composed of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. It has attracted growing interest in research focused on antioxidant defense, cellular detoxification, and anti-aging.
Studies have shown that Glutathione directly neutralizes reactive oxygen species (ROS), regenerates other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, and supports phase II detoxification enzymes. It may also play a role in immune function modulation, melanin synthesis regulation, and protection against oxidative stress-induced cellular damage.
