Glutathione-SR by Thorne – Cellular Antioxidant Support with Sustained-Release Glutathione
Glutathione-SR capsules by Thorne provide reduced glutathione in a sustained-release formula for antioxidant support. This NSF Certified for Sport® supplement contains 175 mg per capsule, with glutathione complexed in a time-release matrix.
Key Glutathione-SR Benefits
- Supports antioxidant defenses with glutathione, a compound naturally present in cells that helps manage reactive molecules generated during everyday metabolism.
- Helps maintain cellular redox balance, the ongoing balance between oxidation and antioxidant activity that supports normal cell function.
- Provides glutathione for normal detoxification pathways, where it works with enzymes that help the body process and clear certain compounds.
How Glutathione-SR Works
Glutathione is part of the body's everyday system for managing reactive molecules. It works with enzymes to help convert peroxides into less reactive substances and participates in normal detoxification by binding to certain compounds so the body can process them. These functions help maintain cellular redox balance.
This formula provides sustained-release glutathione using Time-Sorb®, a matrix designed to release the ingredient gradually rather than all at once.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Glutathione (Reduced): Helps cells manage oxidative stress by working with enzymes that neutralize peroxides. It also joins with certain compounds during normal detoxification, helping the body process them. These complementary roles make glutathione an important part of everyday cellular antioxidant defenses.
Glutathione-SR Is Formulated For
- Adults seeking reduced glutathione in a sustained-release capsule.
- People looking for nutritional support for normal cellular antioxidant balance.
- Athletes who prioritize an NSF Certified for Sport® supplement.
