Glutathione works as an antioxidant in the body and is essential to cell health. When cells are depleted of glutathione, it leads to cell death. Glutathione functions to protect many cell types, and is also essential in the detoxification pathway of the liver, kidneys, and intestinal lining, as well as other organs.
Studies show that glutathione directly affects cell health and is often used in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, HIV/AIDS, and genetic disorders where normal levels of glutathione may be depleted.
