Gpxs exist in multiple isoforms, with different cellular localization and different substrate specificity ( 2 O 2 , Prxs seem to be more active, given their higher intracellular concentration and rate constant ( GSH, exploiting the redox-active thiol residue (-SH) of cysteine, exerts its antioxidant function mainly via Gpxs-mediated reactions, which result in peroxide buffering with simultaneous oxidation of GSH to GSSG ( Besides the neutralization of free radicals produced in phase 1 liver metabolism of chemical toxins, GSH also participates in the protection from the resulting electrophilic substrates through the intervention of glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs)
However, even if you eat enough to get the recommended dose (2.4 micrograms in people 14 and older), older adults and people with gastrointestinal issues may have problems absorbing it properly
