Glutathione is a tripeptide containing γ-amide bond and sulfhydryl group, which is composed of glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine, and exists in almost every part of the body. cells .

Glutathione can help maintain normal immune system function, and has antioxidant, integrated detoxification effects. The sulfhydryl group on cysteine is its active group (so it is often abbreviated as G-SH), which is easy to combine with some drugs, toxins, etc., so that it has an integrated detoxification effect. Glutathione can not only be used in medicine, but also as the base material of functional food, which is widely used in functional food such as anti-aging, enhancing immunity and anti-tumor.

Glutathione has two forms, reduced (G-SH) and oxidized (G-S-S-G), and reduced glutathione accounts for the vast majority under physiological conditions. Glutathione reductase can catalyze the interconversion between the two types, and the coenzyme of this enzyme can also provide NADPH for the bypass metabolism of pentose phosphate
