This example shows impressively the importance of regulatory gene expression and gene copy number expansions for the special trait of metal hyperaccumulation
Your body produces glutathione on its own, but GSH levels can drop due to stress, poor diet, lack of sleep, or exposure to toxins and pollutants
Glutathione is generally well-tolerated by most people at recommended doses
