The research points to a compound that helps the body heal faster and more completely from injury
In short, they are reported to increase the growth of intestinal epithelial cells, enhance intestinal barrier function, influence immune cell development and populations in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue, exert anti-inflammatory and potentially T H 1 promoting and/or T H 2 inhibiting effects on various intestinal immune cells, and modify the abundance of gut microbiota that might play a role in allergic sensitization (Figure 1)
Intestinal-origin Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) activates the intestinal epithelial AKT-STAT signaling pathway, helping to restore a balanced gut microbiota, promote intestinal epithelial cell proliferation, and repair damage (128)
Future research is warranted to determine the dose-response to different amounts, whether fat content and species of milk have a differential effect on brain GSH concentrations, and the potential benefits of high GSH in the brain (i.e., better cognitive function)
