However, cell damage can occur with insufficient amounts or improper functioning of this enzyme (if it becomes overwhelmed, for example, with excess GSSG).* Glutathione plays a role in most bodily processes.* Inadequate amounts can lead to many discomforts and potential health issues, lower glutathione levels may stem from genetic factors, diet, lifestyle, and age.* The following are several examples of glutathione's foundational roles in human health.* Low levels of glutathione have been linked with premature cell death, also called apoptosis, and higher levels are linked with longevity.* [2] When the body has enough glutathione, it can help to maintain energy levels, promote a healthy inflammatory response, support cognitive activity, and normalize metabolic functions.* The more glutathione the body has, the healthier your mitochondria and cells.* Antioxidants are best known for their healthy aging benefits, as they help to protect your body from oxidative stress, or free radical damage.* A certain amount of free radicals is unavoidable and normalthe body naturally produces energy and releases free radicals as byproducts of this process
