Product Description



Glutathione is a tripeptide compound formed by the condensation of glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine through peptide bonds. Glutathione is the most important low molecular mercaptan for antioxidant stress in mammalian cells. It was discovered in 1921, and its chemical structure was determined in 1930. Dr. Al Mindel, a famous nutrition and health care expert in the United States, called glutathione a triple effective anti-aging amino acid, and was also known as the antioxidant master of nature. Its properties are stable when it is solid, and its aqueous solution is easily oxidized to oxidized glutathione in air. It widely exists in bread yeast, wheat germ, animal liver, chicken blood, pig blood, tomato, pineapple and cucumber, among which wheat germ and animal liver have the highest content of 100 ~ 1000mg/100g. It has the functions of anti-oxidation, scavenging free radicals, detoxification, enhancing immunity, delaying aging, anti-radiation and so on. It also helps white blood cells kill bacteria, prevent vitamin C and E oxidation, and prevent strokes and cataract formation. In addition, glutathione binds to carcinogens and excretes them in the urine.
