While glia-derived glutamine provides 50-60% of glutamate neurotransmitter, when the pathway is blocked with MeAIB excitatory transmission abruptly decreases but rapidly recovers, consistent with endogenous neuronal sources of glutamate neurotransmitter (15)
In general, though large cohort studies and countable intervention studies have found a link between maternal fermented foods consumption and reduced risk of pregnancy complications, more in-depth clinical studies with fermented foods intervention among pregnant women would inform preventive strategies for reducing pregnancy-related complications
Measured genes were glutamate-cysteine ligase, catalytic subunit ( GC ), glutathione synthase ( GS ), glutathione reductase ( GR ), glutathione S-transferase ( GT ), and phospholipid-hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase ( GPx )
Youll also find Glutathione in foods such as spinach, broccoli, avocados, and garlic
