Global Glutathione Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Glutathione is a substance made from the amino acids glycine, cysteine, and glutamic acid. The first peptide bond is different from ordinary peptide bonds. It is composed of the γ-carboxyl group of glutamic acid and the amino group of cysteine. In the molecule, the cysteine sulfhydryl group is the main functional group of the compound. As an antioxidant in animal cells, it exists inside water-filled cells and protects DNA from oxidation. It is produced by the liver and involved in many body processes. Glutathione is involved in tissue building and repair, making chemicals and proteins needed in the body, and in immune system function.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Glutathione market finds that the global Glutathione market reached a value of USD 137.1 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 198.37 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.35% during the forecast period.

Antioxidant/stress function of glutathione

Glutathione is divided into reduced glutathione (GSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG). GSH There are many important physiological functions in organisms, especially suitable for maintaining living organisms. The redox environment plays a vital role. Its physiological functions mainly include antioxidant function Energy, detoxification function, GSH and GSSH form a redox pair that regulates the balance of sulfhydryl groups, acts as a stable storage body for cysteine, and GSH participates in the transmembrane transport of amino acids. Therefore, clinically, it is used in auxiliary medicine for various types of liver injury. As a health food application, it is anti-oxidant, scavenge free radicals in the body, protect the liver, etc., and keep young. These effects of glutathione are gradually being recognized by humans, much like the early use of vitamin E. In recent years, it has been gradually promoted in Japan, China, Brazil and other places as biological fertilizer and feed additives, and the application of glutathione has become more and more extensive.

The side effects of glutathione

Taking glutathione long-term has been linked to lower zinc levels. Inhaled glutathione may trigger asthma attacks in people who have asthma. Symptoms may include wheezing.
