In your body, glutathione contributes to many biochemical reactions: it helps defend cells from oxidative stress, helps other antioxidants get back to their active forms so they can continue working as antioxidants, and helps break down certain compounds that can contribute to oxidative stress
Its activity intersects two major metabolic pathways simultaneously: the NAD+ biosynthesis pathway (by consuming nicotinamide, an NAD+ precursor, NNMT competes with the NAD+ salvage pathway) and the methyl-donor pathway (by consuming SAM, NNMT reduces the availability of methyl groups for epigenetic and metabolic methylation reactions)

At IV Elements, we can add a glutathione push to any of our vitamin IV treatments
