What is Glutathione?
Glutathione is a tripeptide compound formed by condensation of glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine by peptide bonds.
Glutathione (GSH) is one of the most essential antioxidant ingredients produced by our body. It can recharge other antioxidants and also prevent mitochondrial damage from free radicals.
Dr. Al Mindell, a well-known American nutrition and health expert, called Glutathione a three-fold anti-aging amino acid.

- Glutathione mechanism Acetyl Glutathione is a lipid-like compound that can be taken up intactly by chylomicrons in our Gut.
- The acetyl group is placed on thiol group, or sulfur group, which can prevent oxidation and allows the molecule to pass spreadly into the cell after Gut absorption.
- Then, the bond is cleaved by the non-specific enzymes in the cell. Acetylation prevents Glutathione breakdown, and S-acetylglutathione is cleaved to reduced form glutathione when it crosses the cell wall, without energy expenditure.Who should take S-Acetyl-L-Glutathione supplementSome people take it
