Glutathione is the king of antioxidants

Glutathione’s amazing bioactive tripeptide Glutathione (GSH) is a bioactive tripeptide made from the dehydrated condensation of L-glutamic acid, glycine, and L-cysteine by peptide bonding. First discovered by Hopkins in 1921, glutathione contains a large number of gamma-glutamyl and sulfhydryl bioactive groups. Reduced form (GSH) and oxidized form (GSSG) are the two forms of glutathione that…
