Low glutathione levels are found in people with lupus, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Crohns disease (IBD), multiple sclerosis (MS), and psoriasis.[ref] Related articles: Lupus, Rheumatoid arthritis, IBD, MS, and psoriasis genes Cystic fibrosis: People with cystic fibrosis, which is a genetic disease caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, have frequent respiratory infections that cause lung inflammation and produce oxidative stress in the lungs, which depletes glutathione levels
Additionally, as the study populations were restricted to participants from India and Japan, the applicability of these findings to other ethnic groups remains uncertain due to genetic, dietary, and lifestyle differences that influence NAFLD progression and treatment response [100,101,102]
Oral glutathione has poor bioavailability because intestinal peptidases hydrolyse the tripeptide before systemic absorption
