Free Reduced Glutathione transforming Hydrogen Peroxide Animation

Reduced glutathione (GSH) helps neutralize hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) by donating electrons to it, converting H₂O₂ into water (H₂O) and itself being oxidized to glutathione disulfide (GSSG). This reaction is facilitated by the enzyme glutathione peroxidase, protecting cells from oxidative damage.
