In this specific cycle: 1 Hydrogen peroxide, a free radical and reactive oxygen species, is converted into water (harmless), and oxygen 2 Two molecules of reduced Glutathione [GSH (the active antioxidant form of glutathione)] are used by the Glutathione peroxidase enzyme to neutralize one molecule of hydrogen peroxide 3 NADPH is used by glutathione reductase enzyme to reduce ("recycle") glutathione disulfide back into usable reduced glutathione Key players: Selenium: Essential for the enzyme that initiates the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide Riboflavin (FAD - coenzyme form of riboflavin): essential for the enzyme that restores the oxidized Glutathione back to its more useful state.

The authors found that benfotiamine enhanced phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase (GSK), which leads to the suppression of its activity, and they proposed that this is the mechanism through which benfotiamine exerts its protective effects in the AD model, seeing that GSK has been involved in tau phosphorylation [72] and the production and accumulation of -amyloid in APP overexpressing mice [20]

Q10: Is it similar to GLP-1 medications

The most actionable approach is tracking the downstream markers that respond to glutathione status: oxidative stress markers, liver enzymes, methylation markers, and inflammation
