Learning & education: glutathione
Glutathione is an antioxidant tripeptide found in nearly all eukaryotes that results from cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid. It is present at the same concentration as glucose and cholesterol in most cells. Such a high level highlights its importance, especially when considering the metabolic activity required for its production. In this article, we'll focus on the relationship between glutamine and glutathione, specifically their interplay and glutathione's roles and therapeutic applications.
