Your liver is your body’s largest internal organ. It sits under your rib cage on the right side of your body. This vital organ supports every other organ in your body and has multiple functions that support your overall health. In fact, this organ is so important that you could only survive one or two days if it is shut down.

Your liver has many important metabolic functions. It converts the nutrients in our diets into substances that the body can use, stores these substances, and supplies cells with them when needed. It also takes up toxic substances and converts them into harmless substances or makes sure they are released from the body.

During detoxification, your liver cleanses the blood by removing large toxins and unwanted chemicals. The liver filters all nutrients ingested by the body and converts toxins into water soluble chemicals that are excreted in bile, stools or urine. This generally occurs in a two-phase process.

During phase I the liver either completely neutralizes toxins or modifies them into weaker, less harmful toxins. Toxins are broken down to smaller remnants, which are simply made neutral in phase ll.

During phase II, numerous powerful enzymes are produced which continue the cleansing detoxification process. The glutathione which is produced in phase I, is then released along with other anti-oxidants in the body during phase II.

Oxidative damage is caused by free radicals and the cells are protected from oxidative damage by antioxidants. From scientific studies, Glutathione has been shown to be the most crucial antioxidant produced for neutralizing free radicals and is a principle element in phase II detoxification.

When there is significant exposure to toxins for long periods of time, an imbalance will develop between phase l and phase ll, creating stress and disharmony on the liver in particular and all the other organs by the flow on effect. When this happens, key elements such as glutathione, magnesium and selenium etc are depleted. This is where liver damage and oxidative stress happens when phase II processes dependent on glutathione, fail. Key nutrients and a master anti-oxidant such as glutathione are vital to nourish your body and eliminating the free radicals you ingest.

Provides anti-oxidant support

Glutathione, often referred as the master cellular anti-oxidant, provides the major anti-oxidant defense mechanism in all mammalian cells by neutralizing free radicals including various reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are generated during the use of oxygen by our cells in aerobic metabolism.

Supports healthy cell function and healthy aging

As we age, our cells begin to lose their ability to self-repair and to produce strong anti-oxidants. Increasing intake of glutathione can help replenish or replace the anti-oxidants lost from aging and slow down the aging and deterioration of our cells and aid in the self-repair of the cells to prolong their functionality and lifespan.

Supports detoxification

Glutathione is involved in the detoxification of the body, most especially the liver - the body’s most essential detoxifying organ. The body can only excrete water-soluble substances. Glutathione is necessary to enable the liver to transform fat-soluble waste into water-soluble waste which can be flushed out of the body through the kidneys and the bowels. When the levels of glutathione are high, the workload placed on the liver as the body’s detoxifying organ is reduced and this gives the liver a better chance of repairing itself. With the liver detoxified and repaired issues such as liver inflammation which can lead to impaired liver function is prevented.

Supports a healthy immune response

The immune system is a conglomeration of numerous anti-oxidants, cells and processes that work to protect our body from infection, disease and illness. No single piece is more important than glutathione when it comes to our immune function. Glutathione acts as the body’s master anti-oxidant, it also activates and recycles numerous other anti-oxidants. Enhancing the function of natural killer cells and T-cells, essential for the body’s response to infection. Low glutathione levels are indicative of increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Virtually every disease we know of is partially caused by inflammation, making high glutathione levels imperative to regulating the inflammatory response and preventing chronic inflammation. This can help with both the prevention and treatment of many disorders, alleviating the symptoms that are associated with inflammation.

Enhances anti-oxidant activity of vitamin C and E

GST recharges and regenerates oxidized vitamin C and E by restoring them to an active state, mostly by donating the electrons that they used in metabolizing (neutralizing) free radicals. So, instead of having this army of anti-oxidants flushed out from the body, they are recycled by glutathione and sent back out to work.

Supports amino acid transport across cell membrane

Glutathione is predominately located in the cell, whereas a major fraction of the cellular y-glutamyl transpeptidase (glutathione enzyme) is on the external surface of cell membranes. This means intracellular glutathione is translocated out of many cells - glutathione moves substances, such as amino acids, in and out of the cell.
