Pure Nutrition Glutathione Capsules harness the power of the body’s primary endogenous antioxidant by delivering 250 mg of pure glutathione (in reduced form) per capsule. Glutathione serves as a crucial antioxidant throughout the body by neutralizing free radicals and reactive oxygen species. It has also been shown that glutathione plays an important role in the nitric oxide cycle, which is critical for proper blood flow to muscle tissue and supporting vascular function.1 It is increasingly important to consider supplementing with glutathione capsules as we age since the body produces less of this key antioxidant as we grow older.
Pure Nutrition Glutathione Capsules contain pure glutathione, an essential tripeptide that helps the liver remove toxins from the body. Glutathione is also a necessary substance for fighting oxidative stress and protecting vital organs, such as the lungs, brain and heart.
Since glutathione is one of the body’s major endogenous antioxidants and also involved in many metabolic reactions, low levels of this peptide are associated with high levels of oxidative stress and impairments in nearly every system in the body (especially immune function).2,3
Supplementing with Glutathione Capsules helps maintain appropriate concentrations of reduced glutathione in the body, which encourages proper health and longevity.
In addition, glutathione is involved in many metabolic reactions throughout virtually every system in the body, notably the nervous system, immune system, and gastrointestinal system.4,5,6 For example, a recent clinical trial found that supplemental glutathione enhanced immune cell defense in patients by restoring levels of important immune factors that protect against microbial agents and viruses, including TH1 cytokines, IL-1β, IFN-γ, and TNF-α.7
Pure Nutrition Glutathione Capsules are made with pure glutathione and free from unnecessary fillers or additives. Like all Pure Nutrition products, our glutathione capsules are made in certified CGMP facility to ensure proper potency, purity, and consistency.
Take one (1) capsule daily as a dietary supplement, preferably with a meal (or as directed by your healthcare practitioner).
