This has been a concern in relation to high concentrations of UA, which are well established as contributing to risk of gout as well as cardiovascular disease
However, avoid administering it with strong acid or vitamin C formulations in the same session, as peptides can degrade at low pH
Comparative laboratory studies evaluate peptide sequence, intracellular signaling pathways, molecular stability, analytical chemistry, formulation science, copper coordination chemistry, and peptide pharmacology to better understand similarities and distinctions among regulatory peptide systems
It is not a replacement for finasteride or minoxidil, but it is complementary it works through a different mechanism (supporting the follicle environment rather than blocking DHT)
Another source highlights the possible risks of taking glutathione, also in supplement form: Lower zinc levels when glutathione is taken long-term
