and because the ROS are chemically bound to the glutathione molecule, they cant react with cellular machinery to impair their function and cause damage.* Glutathione is thus said to be an antioxidant.* In addition to its potent antioxidant activity, glutathione also supports the other cellular antioxidant systems in the body by offloading excess ROS from them and allowing them to be metabolized safely.* The Complex Relationship Between Glutathione and the Thyroid Glutathiones relationship with the functioning of the thyroid gland is indirect
