In our metabolism, glutathione fulfils several important functions as a part of the anti-oxidative protective system, in detoxification through coupling reactions and as a storage for the essential amino acid cysteine. If all the required substances are sufficiently available, a young and healthy organism can synthesize the amounts needed.

The ability to synthesize sufficient amounts of glutathione decreases with age, during oxidative stress, when exposed to foreign substances such as contaminants or pharmaceuticals and through other adverse influences. Especially in organs with a high energy demand like the liver – which is responsible for the detoxifying of foreign substances for the whole body –, the heart, kidneys and the brain, cells and mitochondria can be harmed. Taking glutathione can decrease this damage.

In Glutathion mse, the reduced form of glutathione is contained in an enteric coated capsule in order to warrant an efficient resorption. Moreover, the preparation contains substances that are necessary for glutathione to function and to be regenerated after use.
