Beyond its role in reducing oxidative stress, glutathione (GSH) supplementation has been linked to improved insulin sensitivity (how effectively the body responds to insulin), which is associated with a reduced risk of diabetes
Glutathione's Protective Role Glutathione acts as your body's primary defense against oxidative stress
Growth factors, such as epidermal growth factor (EGF), transforming growth factor (TGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and insulin-like growth factor (IGF), stimulate cancer cell and stromal cell proliferation, migration, and invasion thereby promoting tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis
With prolonged use, the pituitary's baseline GH production decreases a well-documented endocrinological effect
