Product Description: SupplementLiver/DetoxBasic HealthSustained ReleaseNSF Sport CertifiedGluten FreeThorne's Glutathione is NSF Certified for Sport®. It is a cofactor naturally produced in cells and is involved in dozens of enzymatic reactions involved in detoxification. As an antioxidant, glutathione directly inhibits a number of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Maintaining normal levels of glutathione in the body is beneficial for liver function, lung function, immune function, gut health, carbohydrate metabolism, cardiovascular health, cognitive health, and eye health. Glutathione-SR is a sustained-release formula that is protected from stomach acid and digestive enzymes and released slowly. This is a revolution in glutathione supplementation, as it allows this important nutrient to be more consistently present in the bloodstream. Glutathione is the most abundant antioxidant. Because training and competition increase oxidative stress and damage, athletes need more antioxidants than ever before. Glutathione levels in the blood decrease rapidly when exercise time exceeds 60-90 minutes, so it is recommended to supplement glutathione if endurance and ultra-endurance are required. The liver is the largest storage organ of glutathione in the body. Glutathione, a powerful endogenous antioxidant, is essential for the liver's phase 1 and phase 2 detoxification processes. However, the amount of glutathione stored in the liver can decrease due to negative lifestyle and various adverse conditions that affect liver health. Maintaining optimal glutathione levels has been shown to be important for cognitive function, especially as we age. The normal aging process is closely related to a decrease in glutathione activity and a corresponding increase in oxidative activity. Lower than optimal glutathione levels have been observed in people with cognitive decline. On the other hand, people who live to be 100 tend to have more active glutathione. It is a common misconception that glutathione is poorly absorbed when taken orally, but key data show that glutathione is efficiently absorbed across the intestinal epithelium by a specific absorption system. To ensure athletes know that the supplements they are taking are trustworthy and compliant, NSF Sport® Certified products are tested on a per-batch basis to ensure that they adhere to the label claims and are free of more than 200 ingredients banned by major athletic organizations.
