In this review we briefly summarize the mechanisms of GSH synthesis and homeostasis, while we will focus on the strict connection between GSH levels and oxidative/nitrosative stress and on the downstream redox changes that modulate signaling pathways involved in viral infection and autophagy (ATG)
Cholesterol and lipid profile: moderate evidence Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) may help support a healthier lipid profile by reducing total cholesterol and triglyceride levels especially in individuals with metabolic disorders like type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome

Lower oxidative stress: Daily glutathione cuts the GSSG-to-GSH ratio, which reflects less cellular damage
Thus, GSH supplementation in the DG sub-group of elderly diabetic patients over a period of 6 months led to a significant increase in the erythrocyte GSH, GSSG, and FPI and a decrease in HbA1c and 8-OHdG levels (Figure S2), suggesting that the elderly diabetic population responds better to GSH supplementation in conjunction with anti-diabetic therapy
