Glutathione is the body’s master detoxifier and most potent endogenous antioxidant. Glutathione offers comprehensive antioxidant protection, binding to a wide array of damaging molecules, including reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid peroxides, xenobiotics, pesticides, mycotoxins, oxidized vitamin E, oxidized vitamin C, methylmercury, medications, heavy metals, and other harmful substances. Glutathione serves as an essential cofactor for critical and powerful antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione-s-transferase (GST). Glutathione has been known to help regenerate the antioxidants vitamin C and vitamin E. Glutathione offers potent protection inside the mitochondria, our cells’ energy powerhouses; is critical to our immune system function, helps dampen inflammation; is a key player in autoimmunity. Packaged in Quicksilver Scientific's advanced nano-liposomal delivery system, Quicksilver Scientific glutathione is protected from breakdown by stomach acid and delivered rapidly to the cells where it is needed most.

SUPPORTS ALL THREE PHASES OF DETOXIFICATION Glutathione is present in every single cell of our bodies—at surprisingly high levels equal to that of glucose, potassium or cholesterol. Concentrations are five to ten times higher in hepatocytes than other cells as the liver is constantly processing and removing toxins.
Strengthening the glutathione system supports all three phases of detoxification, but in particular phases II and III      

• Phase I—Oxidation: The liver converts a lipid-soluble toxin into a less harmful compound, preparing it for phase II detoxification. This occurs through oxidation, reduction and hydrolysis of substances via cytochrome P450 enzymes.      

• Phase II—Conjugation: Glutathione binds to the toxin, rendering it water-soluble. This occurs through sulfation, glucuronidation and glutathione conjugation of toxins.      

• Phase III—Elimination: Cellular transport and elimination of the conjugated toxin through bile or urine. Optimal phase II and III detoxification requires the activation of the cellular master switch Nrf2. Nrf2 regulates over 500 genes involved in detoxification.

NOT ALL GLUTATHIONE IS CREATED EQUAL Typical oral delivery of glutathione is greatly inhibited by breakdown in the stomach. Quicksilver Scientific's liposomal delivery system not only protects glutathione from breakdown in the digestive system, but also dramatically enhances cellular delivery. In cell cultures, liposomal glutathione has been demonstrated to be 100 times more efficacious for intracellular delivery than non-liposomal glutathione.
