Dr. Stephen Langer's Glutathione Precursor Complex combines the three amino acids forming glutathione (a tri-peptide combination of glutamate, cysteine ​​and glycine), together with supporting nutrients for optimal absorption. A glutathione increasing programme can be very useful for people over the age of 45, and certainly for those over 60, since it is of essential importance for overall health and given the fact that no one is exempt from the reduction of this important substance which occurs naturally with age. In order to ensure all prerequisites necessary for physical fitness and high levels of energy, Dr. Stephen Langer's Glutathione Precursor Complex contains the following key ingredients: Setria Glutathione, a reduced form of glutathione for optimal bioavailability; Pure Amino Acids, AjiPure pharmaceutical L-glutamine and L-cysteine; TMG for glutathione synthesis; Vitamin C to enhance glutathione in red blood cells; Alpha Lipoic Acid which regenerates the antioxidant potential of glutathione; standardised Milk Thistle, one of the best herbs for liver health; and Acetyl L-Carnitine which helps the better distribution of glutathione and enhances its activity.
More about glutathione:
Glutathione is the most important intracellular antioxidant in the body. It works inside the cells, protecting them from the free radicals formed as a result of normal cellular processes. Without glutathione, we would be quickly defeated by free radicals. In addition to its antioxidant properties, glutathione is one of the best detoxification agents. It is extremely helpful to the organs which are responsible for the difficult task of cleansing our body, such as the liver and kidneys, lungs and intestines. Glutathione also supports the immune system. It contributes to the production of white blood cells, known as lymphocytes or "Natural Killer Cells", and is vital to their function.
