Description of L-Glutathione

Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant produced naturally by the liver. It is also found in fruits, vegetables, and meats. It’s a tripeptide, composed of three amino acids: glutamine, glycine, and cysteine. L-Glutathione is the biologically active form of the antioxidant, often referred to as reduced glutathione.

L-Glutathione Benefits

  • Antioxidant Activity: Glutathione is a potent antioxidant, helping to combat free radicals and prevent oxidative stress, which can lead to cell damage and various diseases.
  • Detoxification: Glutathione plays a crucial role in detoxifying harmful substances in the body, including environmental toxins, drugs, and carcinogens.
  • Immune Function: Glutathione is involved in maintaining immune function. It’s necessary for the proliferation of lymphocytes, which are white blood cells that play a key role in the immune response.
  • Skin Health: Some research suggests that glutathione can have skin-lightening effects when taken as a supplement. It may also help reduce the signs of aging.
