[16] First, it directly neutralizes free radicals, and second, it promotes the gene expression of essential antioxidant enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, and catalase
ALC is used most often associated with the improvement of antioxidant/anti-aging effects, while LC is commonly used to improve the bodys ability to oxidize fat cells which assists in the production of energy and burning fat [27]
REDUCED GLUTATHIONE PWD50
2 In cell and tissue studies it does genuinely interesting things: it modulates the synthesis and breakdown of collagen and glycosaminoglycans, influences matrix metalloproteinases and their inhibitors, stimulates decorin and other proteoglycans, and, in gene-expression analyses, shifts the activity of a large number of genes in a direction associated with tissue remodeling and antioxidant defense
