"Glutathione deficiency in elderly humans occurs because of a marked reduction in synthesis," Rajagopal V. Sekhar and colleagues conclude.

These findings suggest a practical and effective approach to decreasing oxidative stress in aging."

Does anyone on the forum supplement with glycine? Is it really beneficial? Doesn't vitamin C also help restore glutathione levels?
