The primary S source is sulfate, which, following uptake by specific transporters, is reduced and incorporated into the amino acids Cysteine (Cys) and Methionine, and thereafter into proteins and peptides, including the multifunctional tripeptide thiol glutathione (Takahashi et al., 2011)
The peptide achieves these complex neurological stabilizations largely through intricate, bidirectional interactions with the nitric oxide (NO) system, dynamically responding to both NO-system blockade (via L-NAME administration) and NO-system over-stimulation (via L-arginine administration) to restore neurological homeostasis
A more absorbable and highly stable form of glutathione, S-Acetyl Glutathione, is now available
