The need of glutathione for Swimmers

Studies have shown that when we perform activities like swimming, running, aerobics etc., our body undergoes oxidative stress due to which free radicals are released in our body. If these free radicals are not neutralized by the antioxidants, they can cause harm to the healthy cells of our body due to which our performance level can be adversely affected.

In a research done on swimmers, it was found that, excess oxidative stress adversely affected the health of swimmers of all age groups. The swimmers who underwent excessive oxidative stress were found to have a low level of glutathione in their body. The greater the oxidative stress the lower was the glutathione level.

Glutathione being the body’s master antioxidant should be present in adequate amounts in the bodies of athletes. This will ensure that the free radicals released due to oxidative stress are neutralized by glutathione and the healthy cells are protected. Good glutathione levels are also known to help athletes to improve their performance.
