SCIENCE

How It Works.

Glutathione is a tripeptide composed of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine synthesized naturally in the liver. It functions as the principal intracellular redox buffer, utilizing its active thiol group (-SH) to neutralize free radicals, heavy metals, and xenobiotic compounds.

Via glutathione peroxidase and glutathione S-transferase enzymes, it conjugates toxins for safe elimination while recycling other essential antioxidants, making it the bedrock of cellular defense against lipid peroxidation and mitochondrial decay.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Hepatic biomarker and systemic oxidative stress markers show measurable improvement over 4–8 week experimental cycles.

PROTOCOL NOTE

Available in 600 mg sterile vials. For laboratory research use only.

FAQ

Protocol Questions

What is the primary biological function of glutathione?+

Potent intracellular free radical scavenging and enzymatic Phase II hepatic conjugation, shielding cellular organelles and DNA from oxidative injury.

Why is parenteral administration chosen over standard oral glutathione?+

Oral glutathione is heavily degraded by digestive peptidases in the gut. Parenteral injection ensures direct bioavailability of the intact tripeptide to tissue capillary beds.
