Dietary supplement
Vitakruid S-Acetyl-L-Glutathione
Product description
Glutathione is known in three forms: the reduced form, the oxidized form, or as s-acetyl-l-glutathione. When you see reduced glutathione, or simply glutathione, on the label of a nutritional supplement, you mean the reduced form. This is a compound of three amino acids (tripeptide), which the body produces from cysteine, glutamine and glycine. The thiol group (SH group) of cysteine is the active part of the molecule. However, research shows that the body does not absorb reduced glutathione, or hardly absorbs it. The gastrointestinal tract simply destroys the nutrient. Even doses of three grams do not result in an increase in glutathione levels in the body (see graph below). In contrast to s-acetyl-l-glutathione, which the body absorbs completely and takes up in its entirety into the cells.
