Ideal For: Post-workout hydration, supporting recovery, and pre-event hydration
The sooner blood flow is restored, the better the chances of survival and minimizing heart damage
The phosphocholine head group in phospholipids of normal healthy cell membranes is not accessible but, when cells are damaged and die, enhanced availability of lysophosphatidylcholine and disruption of the lipid bilayer expose phosphocholine residues to which CRP avidly binds ( In acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), there is extensive overproduction of free radicals and reduced extracellular and intracellular GSH leading to oxidative cell damage ( Glutathione is an important antioxidant in the lungs, but its concentration is low in the airways of patients with cystic fibrosis, since GSH is transported into the airways by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator, which is mutated in cystic fibrosis patients (123), and then, the use of precursors of GSH synthesis like NAC and cystine could be more effective in the synthesis of GSH (124)

Why Researchers Track This Decline The plasma decline matters to researchers because GHK-Cus concentration appears to track closely with markers of tissue repair capacity, making it a useful reference point for studying how cellular regeneration and extracellular matrix activity change with age
