Studies comparing routes consistently show IV glutathione produces five to ten times higher peak plasma concentrations than oral dosing (PubMed PMID: 24791752)
Free radicals cause damage and aging to cells by causing oxidative stress, and having extra glutathione helps reduce this
Proper glutathione activity also strengthens and helps modulate the immune system, helps muscle tissues recover from damage, reduces recovery time, increases strength and endurance, and more
