Glutathione

Glutathione was first discovered in 1888 by J. de Rey-Pailhade. Initially referred to as "philothion" or "the love of sulfur." In the early 20th century, its tripeptide structure (composed of glutamine, cysteine, and glycine) was identified. The understanding of its critical role in cellular functions expanded throughout the 20th century.

Benefits:

• Antioxidant Defense: Protects cells from oxidative stress and damage by neutralizing free radicals.

• Detoxification: Essential for the detoxification process in the liver, aiding in the elimination of toxins and harmful substances.

• Immune Support: Enhances the function of immune cells, including T-cells and natural killer cells.

• Skin Health: Promotes skin lightening and reduces melanin production, leading to improved skin tone and reduction of pigmentation.

• Cellular Function: Supports proper cell function and integrity by maintaining redox balance and mitochondrial function.

• Anti-Aging: May slow down the aging process by reducing oxidative stress and maintaining cellular health.

• Inflammation Reduction: Helps in modulating inflammatory responses and reducing chronic inflammation

• Chronic Disease Management: Potentially beneficial in managing conditions like cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic disorders.

• Energy Production: lays a crucial role in mitochondrial function, enhancing cellular energy production.

• Mental Health: Supports cognitive function and mental clarity by protecting brain cells from oxidative damage.
