Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant produced in all cells. It is essential for the immune system’s proper functioning and is vital in building and repairing tissue. Levels may be reduced by various factors such as poor nutrition, environmental toxins, and stress. Levels also typically decline with age. Low levels of glutathione have been linked to an increased risk of cancer, type 2 diabetes, hepatitis, and Parkinson’s disease. Increasing glutathione levels may have many health benefits, including:
- Reducing oxidative stress oxidative stress occurs when there is an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the body’s ability to fight them. Oxidative stress may contribute to the development of multiple diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and autoimmune diseases. Glutathione protects cells from free radicals, peroxides, and heavy metals.
- Protecting the brain glutathione may help prevent neurodegenerative diseases by protecting the hippocampus, the part of the brain responsible for learning and memory.
- Supporting the immune system glutathione may help white blood cells fight viruses and bacteria.
- Detoxifying the liver glutathione may help protect the liver from diseases like fatty liver and remove toxins such as drugs, pollutants, and heavy metals. A 2023 study suggested that glutathione may help treat non-alcoholic fatty liver disease due to its antioxidant properties and potential to detoxify.
- Improved sleep glutathione may play a role in cellular repair during sleep, helping to remove damaged cells and create new ones.
- Supporting athletic performance glutathione may help reduce muscle damage, increase strength and endurance, and shorten recovery time.
- Improved insulin resistance Insulin resistance occurs when the cells don’t respond to insulin as they should and fail to take up glucose from the blood as they should. It is associated with prediabetes and diabetes. A 2021 trial of males with obesity, some of whom had diabetes and some who did not, showed that glutathione supplementation improved insulin resistance in all of the study participants.
- Reducing disease symptoms glutathione may help reduce symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, psoriasis, alcoholic liver disease, as well as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
