Pro Glutathion
Spring cleaning for your cells: Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant and essential for cleansing body cells. Pro Glutathion provides all necessary building blocks to effectively increase your glutathione levels.
Glutathione: cell protection and more
Little-known but indispensable: Glutathione is one of the body's most effective antioxidants and is also a key component of cellular waste disposal. It helps the liver to dispose of harmful substances and metabolic waste and protects DNA and cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Glutathione is also important for the function of various immune cells and therefore strengthens the body's defenses.
Increased oxidative stress caused by environmental toxins, UV radiation or physical and mental stress increases the body's consumption of glutathione. The need also increases with age and chronic illnesses.
Pro Glutathion provides you with the glutathione building blocks cysteine and glycine and also supplies cell-protecting selenium, which is also required for glutathione metabolism. This gives you the perfect combination to naturally increase your glutathione levels, relieve your excretory organs and better arm yourself against oxidative stress.
The building blocks for your optimal glutathione level
N-acetylcysteine (NAC)
Alongside glutamine and glycine, cysteine is one of the three amino acids from which glutathione is formed. An adequate supply of this amino acid is particularly important because cysteine is easily oxidized to cystine in the gastrointestinal tract and is therefore lost for the formation of glutathione.
Pro Glutathion therefore supplies cysteine in a stabilized form as N-acetylcysteine (chemically correct N-acetyl-L-cysteine, also known as NAC). Due to the attached acetyl group, the cysteine is protected from oxidation, is released in the liver and is available for glutathione synthesis.
Glycine
The amino acid glycine is not only necessary for the synthesis of glutathione, but is also directly involved in the breakdown of harmful substances and metabolic products in the liver. Although the limiting factor for glutathione synthesis is cysteine, the body's own synthesis of glycine is not always sufficient to replenish the glutathione reserves.
Clinical studies have shown that a combination of glycine and N-acetylcysteine reliably increases low glutathione levels and thus reduces oxidative stress.
Selenium in a double pack
Glutathione relies on selenium to fulfill its role as a free radical scavenger. The trace element is a central cofactor for certain enzymes (glutathione peroxidases) that are responsible for the antioxidant function of glutathione.
Pro Glutathion contains a combination of the two selenium sources sodium selenite and selenomethionine. Your body can utilize the inorganic sodium selenite particularly quickly, while the organically bound selenomethionine serves as a store. So you are optimally supplied with selenium.
