Blood reduced glutathione concentration is significantly diminished 5 to 10 hours after such psychological stresses as jumping from a 34-foot tower while in harness, parachute jumping, and participation in night-infiltration exercises, but not after extremely severe, purely physical activity. The exact nature of the psychological stress capable of evoking this metabolic response is unknown. It is postulated that severe psychological stress operating over long periods may produce irreversible depression of the blood glutathione level and its associated metabolic dysfunctions
