This product contains S-Acetyl Glutathione (S-A-GSH), a unique form of the compound glutathione, often called the
body’s “master antioxidant.” Glutathione is produced inside every cell in the human body, and is most highly concentrated
in hardworking organs, such as the pancreas, kidneys, and liver. It is the single most protective antioxidant produced
by the body and therefore the most important, as it protects cells against oxidative stress from free radicals. In addition
to its powerful antioxidant capacity, glutathione may help support immune function and is a crucial compound for
facilitating effective detoxification processes in the liver. (Detoxification helps remove harmful compounds that enter
from the outside as well as those our bodies generate internally from normal, healthy metabolism. These include heavy
metals, alcohol, excess hormones, metabolites of pharmaceutical drugs, and more.)
The antioxidant function of glutathione makes it critical for cellular
energy generation in the mitochondria, which are the body’s energy
generating factories. Chronic illness and long term toxin exposure
may deplete stored glutathione as well as hinder its production.
The body’s ability to make glutathione naturally declines with
age, so just when aging individuals become more susceptible to
illness, their immune systems may not be functioning optimally.
Supplemental glutathione may provide more of this compound
than the body is able to generate on its own.
WHY USE THE S-A-GSH FORM OF GLUTATHIONE?
Glutathione is made up of three amino acids, making it a very small protein. As a protein, if it is consumed in its isolated
state, the digestive system will break it down and it will not have the intended effect. Therefore, glutathione, itself, is
not typically used in supplements. In fact, intravenous glutathione administration is the most effective delivery system
for glutathione, but this is expensive and inconvenient. S-Acetyl-Glutathione is an ideal alternative for supporting
glutathione status in a simple and effective way. This unique form of glutathione is chemically altered in order to be
suitable for oral ingestion. The “S-acetyl” molecule bound to glutathione protects glutathione from breaking down in
the gastrointestinal tract, so it reaches the bloodstream intact.
S-Acetyl-Glutathione Synergy includes vitamin B6 due to its role as a required cofactor for the body to produce
glutathione.
