What is Glutathione?

Glutathione is a supercharged antioxidant consisting of three amino acids (cysteine, glutamic acid, and glycine) that are vital to your bodily functions. It’s also found in plants, animals, fungi, and some bacteria and archaea. In high levels, glutathione has been linked to better health, decreasing conditions such as Parkinson’s, diabetes, dementia, and more.

What Does Glutathione Do for the Body?

A poor lifestyle, toxins, and certain housewares can deplete the levels of glutathione in your body. It’s important to make sure glutathione is increasing in your body so that your immune system and energy levels remain balanced and supported.

Glutathione can help your body:

  • Fight against diseases and cancer
  • Break down and detoxify fat
  • Reduce inflammation
  • Strengthen your immune system
  • Prevent drug resistance
  • Aid in cellular repair
  • Slow down the aging process

There are also many factors that can alter your levels of glutathione. Grumpiness, sleepiness, and mood irritability are all symptoms that can mean glutathione levels in your body are depleting.
