Glutathione can be naturally increased through: Precursors: N-acetylcysteine (NAC), alpha-lipoic acid, glycine, and selenium support glutathione synthesis
First: Limit further dysbiosis and prevent pathogen expansion by avoiding unnecessary antibiotics, providing enteral nutrition (fiberrich if tolerated), and early SCFA support ( Akkermansia muciniphila in the PAM-ICU trial) represent a safer alternative
Although some studies have demonstrated benefits such as increased lean body mass and improved body composition (in populations with clinical need for the drugs), these gains have not consistently translated into enhancements in muscle strength, physical performance, or overall quality of life
However, the general consensus is that long-term and moderate intensity exercise decrease ROS production and also mitigate the age-mediated decrease in antioxidant defense mechanisms and mitochondrial dysfunction (Jia et al., 2023)
