GST enzymes
GST enzymes, or Glutathione S-transferases, are proteins in our body that help detoxify harmful substances. They do this by attaching a molecule called glutathione to toxins, making them easier to eliminate through urine or bile. This process protects cells from damage caused by environmental chemicals, pollutants, and metabolic byproducts. GST enzymes are crucial for maintaining our body's internal balance and supporting healthy function. They are found in various tissues and can vary among individuals, influencing how effectively we detoxify certain substances.
