Glutathione-SR 60 Vegetarian Capsules

Glutathione is one of the best-kept nutrition secrets: it’s an essential antioxidant that helps regulate the immune system while working together with various enzymes to remove toxins from your body. Fun fact: it’s been found that people that are age 100 or older tend to have higher glutathione activity in their bodies. Could it be the long sought-after fountain of youth? Maybe!

Although glutathione is naturally produced by the liver, that quantity is usually too small to have a significant impact and is easily depleted. An overload of toxins, artificial chemicals, and free radicals can also reduce the amount of glutathione your body produces.

Some medical studies have found that a deficiency in glutathione may be a factor in the development common chronic illnesses such as heart and autoimmune diseases. Since glutathione is associated with cognitive function, it may help prevent or lessen the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease.

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a condition that many people—especially adult women--suffer from today; stress, age, illness, and genetics are often to blame. If you’re constantly tired and rest doesn’t help, a glutathione supplement could be just what you need.

Foods rich in sulfur assist natural glutathione production; these include vegetables like kale, broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage. However, getting enough of them in your diet is tough. Physical exercise has also been tied to increased glutathione, but vigorous activity may not be an option if you’re already feeling worn down.

Unlike most oral glutathione products, Glutathione-SR is a sustained-release capsule that prevents your stomach acids from interfering in its absorption. This quality also means that the glutathione levels in your blood stay steady for longer periods of time.

Thorne Research recommends that you take these vegetarian GSH capsules twice per day, meaning that this bottle provides a 30-day supply.
