It supports immune function, detoxification, and plays a key role in promoting youthful, healthy skin by combating oxidative stress and supporting tissue repair.* Glutathione supports normal melanin production by shifting the synthesis pathway toward lighter pheomelanin instead of darker eumelanin
Crash Severity (PEM): Chlorella's ability to boost endogenous antioxidants (like glutathione) helps protect fragile mitochondria from the oxidative stress caused by endotoxemia, potentially raising the threshold for exertion before a crash occurs

This synergy is clearest in tendon and ligament research
Antioxidant role of glutathione S-transferases: 4-Hydroxynonenal, a key molecule in stress-mediated signaling
Improved barrier function lowers TLR4-mediated immune priming, changes T-cell differentiation toward regulatory phenotypes (Tregs), and inhibits pro-inflammatory Th1/Th17 responses, all of which have been linked to increased neuroinflammation in PD [155]
