In a 2020 review, the researchers corroborated that silymarin's capacity to reduce oxidative stress on the liver could indeed improve biomarkers associated with conditions such as alcoholic fatty liver disease, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, alcoholic cirrhosis, and drug-induced liver injury.29 Although the studies covered in the review used 420mg silymarin doses, others have found that amounts as low as 200mg could also impart the desired effects on liver health.30 If that weren't all, a 2018 study concluded that silymarin may actually increase glutathione levels in the liver.31 Selenium (55mcg) Selenium is an essential mineral with antioxidant properties, and one that may increase levels of an enzyme called glutathione peroxidase (GPx).32 GPx is important because it uses reduced glutathione to neutralize hydrogen peroxide,33 one of the major ROS

Pickarts findings that the complex caused old human liver tissue to synthesize proteins like younger tissue.12 In addition to (or because of) its regenerative properties, research has found that GHK-Cu may be able to:12 14 Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles Tighten loose skin, improve skin firmness, and reverse age-related skin thinning Promote faster wound healing Lighten the appearance of hyperpigmentation and sun damage Protect skin cells from UV damage Repair the skin barrier Smooth rough skin patches Stimulate collagen production Restore the vitality of fibroblasts (a type of cell that plays an important role in the formation of connective tissue)46 With all of this in mind, it becomes clear why copper peptides have grown in popularity as a milder yet still seemingly effective alternative to harsh actives, such as retinoids, which can often cause side effects like skin redness, itching, burning, and peeling.47 To learn more about GHK-Cu, check out our comprehensive guide to the peptide
