// WHAT_IT_IS

Glutathione (GSH) is a 3-amino-acid peptide—Glutamate, Cysteine, Glycine—produced inside every cell of your body. Discovered in 1888, it remains the most studied endogenous antioxidant in modern biology. The cysteine residue carries a thiol group (-SH), the active center that neutralizes free radicals and recycles other antioxidants.

// THE_REDOX_CYCLE

GSH operates in a constant cycle: reduced glutathione neutralizes a free radical, becoming oxidized GSSG. Glutathione reductase then recycles it back. Your GSH/GSSG ratio is one of the most important markers of cellular health studied in research.

// RESEARCH_APPLICATIONS

• Oxidative Stress Defense — Primary endogenous free-radical neutralizer
• Cellular Detoxification — Phase II conjugation pathways
• Antioxidant Recycling — Regenerates Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and other antioxidants
• Immune Function Research — Lymphocyte activity and proliferation studies
• Mitochondrial Health — Protecting cellular energy production

// DELIVERY_ROUTES

Delivery route matters significantly. Oral glutathione has limited bioavailability due to gut breakdown — injectable delivery bypasses this limitation entirely, placing the molecule directly into circulation. Research protocols utilize IV or subcutaneous injection for direct, uncompromised systemic delivery.

// PROTOCOL_NOTES

Research dosing varies by study design. Injectable protocols often range 200-1500mg depending on research objectives. Frequently stacked with NAC (precursor support), Vitamin C (synergistic recycling), or other antioxidant compounds in oxidative stress research.
