How it works: Strengthens immune function while aiding detoxification and recovery
Glutathione, the body's master antioxidant, plays a critical role in neutralizing free radicals and supporting immune function, with intracellular concentrations declining with age and metabolic stress
Functionally, HG leads to the overproduction of advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs), and the structure and function of SCs can be altered by AGE-induced changes in key proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, which in turn affect axons, leading to the development of neuropathy (31, 32)

We review substrate handling, activation strategy, order of addition, and buffer or solvent compatibility so the reaction is optimized for the chemistry actually present rather than for a generic GSH workflow
