Reacción a "A study in mice and human tissue shows that the antioxidant glutathione feeds cancer cells"

It is an interesting article. The researchers behind it come from leading research centres, and the fact that it has been peer-reviewed and published in a reputable journal indicates that it is a serious piece of work. I have seen that the authors have been working for years on cancer, antioxidants, and specifically on glutathione. It is also important to note that studies like this need to be confirmed by further research.

Regarding the question of what these results tell us about dietary supplementation, this study serves as a reminder of the importance of seeking professional advice when taking supplements. The use of supplements should respond to specific needs in particular situations, and using them freely without supervision could, in some cases, be counterproductive—as could be the case here for cancer patients if the findings of this study are confirmed. Moreover, it should be noted that, specifically, glutathione does not have any health claims authorised by the EFSA (European Union) or by the FDA (United States).
