It occurs naturally in cells and is a cofactor in dozens of enzymatic reactions involved in detoxification.* As an antioxidant, glutathione directly quenches several reactive oxygen species (free radicals).* The body's benefits from maintaining a normal level of glutathione include support for liver function, pulmonary function, immune function, bowel health, carbohydrate metabolism, cardiovascular health, cognitive health, and eye health.* Glutathione-SR is a breakthrough in glutathione supplementation because its sustained-release formula protects it from stomach acid and digestive enzymes, allowing for a slower release and a more steady level in the bloodstream of this essential nutrient.*\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlutathione is the most abundant anti-oxidant. Since training and competition create more oxidative stress and damage, athletes have a higher need for antioxidants. Exercise longer than 60-90 minutes significantly decreases glutathione levels in the blood, so supplementing is beneficial for endurance and ultra endurance events.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe liver is the body's largest reservoir for glutathione. A potent endogenous antioxidant, glutathione is essential for the liver's phase I and phase II detoxification.* However, negative lifestyle issues and adverse conditions that affect liver health can result in a decreased amount of glutathione in the liver.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaintaining an optimal level of glutathione appears to be important for supporting cognitive function, especially during aging.* The normal process of aging is associated with a decrease in glutathione activity, which can result in increased oxidative activity.* Less than an optimum level of glutathione is observed in individuals experiencing a decline in cognitive function.* Conversely, individuals who live to 100 tend to have higher glutathione activity.*\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough a common mistaken belief is that glutathione is not well absorbed when it's taken orally, significant data confirms that glutathione is efficiently absorbed across the intestinal epithelium by a specific uptake system.*\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause athletes need to know their supplements are trustworthy and compliant, every batch of an NSF Certified for Sport® product is tested for compliance with label claims and to ensure the absence of nearly 300 substances banned by many major athletic organizations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSuggested Use:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake 1 capsule two to three times daily or as recommended by your health-care practitioner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWarnings:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eALLERGY WARNING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is contraindicated in an individual with a history of hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePREGNANCY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf pregnant, consult your health-care practitioner before using this product.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eINTERACTIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are no known adverse interactions or contraindications at publication date.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thorne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46376172355773,"sku":"PSCSA540","price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0733\/2207\/0205\/files\/sa540__vcd228bab4f3d0f5e343dc0a69b806f8fd90f3260.png?v=1778242975","url":"https:\/\/www.performancesupplyretail.co\/products\/glutathione-sr","provider":"Performance Supply Retail","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
