Product Details
glutathione.html">Glutathione known as GSH is a tripeptide identified as gammaleic-anhydride.html">ma-glutamylcysteinylglycine present across plant and animal life forms. It functions as a nucleophilic co-substrate for glutathione transferases supporting xenobiotic detoxification processes. As a key electron donor for glutathione peroxidases it helps reduce hydroperoxides. It also participates in amino acid transport and sustains the reduced state of protein sulfhydryl groups. Its concentration varies from low micromolar levels in blood plasma up to millimolar ranges in organs like the liver.

Product Application
Glutathione is a peptide made from three amino acids cysteine glycine and glutamate. It is known to support cellular metabolism and oxygen usage in skin cells. It shields fibroblasts from oxidation triggered by free radicals and acts as a strong antioxidant. Research shows it can inhibit tyrosinase activity and neutralize free radicals that promote melanin production. This makes it effective for skin brightening and reducing pigmentation. Glutathione exists naturally in human and animal tissues and supports healthy immune system function.
