Glutathione(L-glutathione/GSH, CAS No.: 70-18-8) has several main functions and hundreds of minor functions, from DNA synthesis to nitric oxide production, to regulate the oxygen release of red blood cells (regulate and maintain blood oxygen). Clinical research further points out that supplementing the glutathione content in human body can have at least 8 effects.
1. Slow down aging: increase the onset age of Parkinson's disease and senile dementia, and delay the occurrence time of cataract and macular disease.
2. Improve dyspepsia: improve inflammatory intestinal diseases, mild hepatitis, food intolerance, dyspepsia, and malnutrition.
3. Prevention of cardiovascular disease: it can prevent heart disease, stroke, arteriosclerosis and recurrent arteriosclerosis, and even prevent injuries caused by blood perfusion.
4. Enhance immunity: fight against viruses, prevent bacterial infection, and even prevent some diseases with abnormal autoimmunity; Avoid chronic fatigue syndrome and prevent diseases caused by damaged immunity.
5. Reduce cancer risk: the higher the content of glutathione in the body, it can significantly inhibit the abnormal growth and proliferation of tumor cells, so as to prevent and treat cancer. It is considered as a means to prevent cancer in integrated medicine. Glutathione itself can eliminate carcinogens and most of the chemical substances that may cause gene mutation through its own redox capacity, delay the time of excessive oxidation of DNA, and reduce the side effects caused by chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
6. Improve metabolism: Generally speaking, most metabolic problems can be improved and strengthened through glutathione, because glutathione can be used as an antioxidant, and vitamin C and vitamin E play a role through glutathione, which can reduce the body's pressure and reduce the oxidation of cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein.
7. Prevent lung diseases: prevent and improve diseases caused by pathological changes of lung tissues or cell fibers, and reduce the incidence of asthma and chronic bronchitis.
