These resilience-associated markers have been described as BDNF-dependent 70,71
Research indicates that glutathione: Inhibits melanin production to brighten skin Reduces UV damage, helping prevent tanning and sunburn Enhances the antioxidant effects of Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and polyphenols, boosting brightening efficacy Promotes collagen synthesis, strengthens the skin barrier, and helps plump the skin while smoothing wrinkles Enriched with arbutin for enhanced brightening effects
In patients who still experience symptoms of deficiency, it could be that there is an undiagnosed condition preventing the body from absorbing the nutrients
Animal studies show substantial evidence across stroke models (full functional recovery in spatial memory, motor coordination, balance), Parkinsons models (protection of dopaminergic neurons, near-complete prevention of mortality), multiple sclerosis models (significantly less brain damage), and traumatic brain injury (reduced hemorrhage and edema)

In support of this observation, over expression of GS in a yeast model failed to increase glutathione (GSH) levels whereas over expression of GCL did [18]
