Glutathione: Your liver's favorite antioxidant

Glutathione is a tripeptide your cells make from glutamine, glycine, and cysteine. It's the front-line antioxidant inside every cell — neutralizing free radicals, recycling vitamins C and E, and shuttling toxins out of the liver.

Why injection beats oral

Oral glutathione is largely broken down in the gut before absorption. Subcutaneous and IM injections deliver it intact, raising plasma levels enough to support phase II liver detoxification at therapeutic doses.

Skin clarity, explained

Glutathione gradually brightens skin tone by reducing oxidative pigmentation and protecting against UV and pollution damage. It's not a bleaching agent — expect a healthier, clearer look over weeks 4–8 of consistent use.
