Patients most commonly pursue glutathione injections for immune support, detoxification, reduced fatigue, improved skin tone and brightness, and protection against oxidative stress and cellular aging
It binds circulating iron and intracellular iron, stabilizing the level of iron in cardiac tissue, also clearing cardiac iron and reducing myocardial oxidative stress in Fe overload in vitro (Jansov and imnek 2019)
While its body of published research is smaller than that of GHK-Cu, ongoing studies continue to expand our understanding of hair follicle signaling, collagen biology, extracellular matrix remodeling, and tissue repair mechanisms
This likely relates to improved cellular turnover and collagen production that comes with healthier, longer telomeres
Comparing aflatoxin metabolism in the rat and mouse proved to be a fruitful way of investigating this question (6)
