Bottle Contents: 60 Capsules, 300mg

Ingredients: Acetyl-Glutathione

Other Ingredients: Microcrystalline Cellulose

Dosage and Use: 1–2 caps daily. (Or every other day if cost is an issue.)

Time of Day: Any time. All capsules at once or divided dose, whichever is easiest.

Quantity Needed for One-Month Supply: Varies according to dosage.

Cautions: Because Acetyl-Glutathione chelates heavy metals, it can also deplete trace minerals. Natural mineral supplementation is recommended if you take Acetyl Glutathione in high doses. We simply suggest adding seaweeds into your diet if you take large doses of Acetyl-Glutathione.

What it Does/How it Works:

Glutathione is a potent antioxidant, and its depletion is a component of every chronic disease, or inflammatory condition, including aging. It is the main intracellular anti-oxidant found in the liver.

Hepatitis C is disease of oxidation. The Hepatitis C Virus does not directly injure the hepatocytes or liver cells. It is a cellular immune response to the presence of the HCV virus that generates a reactive oxygen species (ROS) that subsequently damages the liver. This happens in the lysosomes, which are organelles found in each cell of the body. These are the little chemical factories of the cells that produce the ROS in an attempt to kill the invading virus. Adequate Glutathione in the body is a front-line defense against liver injury caused by reactive oxygen species.

Glutathione is also the anti-oxidant protection for red blood cells. It allows red blood cells a longer lifespan, which builds blood counts. This gives strength quickly when people are anemic or blood deficient.

Glutathione is indicated for those with chemical sensitivity. Adequate Glutathione allows people to detoxify chemicals and other poisons more easily.

At Alchemist Lab we use Acetyl-Glutathione in our neurological detox protocol, which we prescribe for many conditions, including lyme disease. It is a primary treatment for Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), and other neuro-degenerative conditions.

Acetylation is used with aspirin as it allows molecules to more easily pass through the blood brain barrier. Acetyl-Glutathione was patented in 1995. The makers received their patent with the claim that acetylating glutathione would enable it to pass through cellular barriers into the liver more easily.

Glutathione is a three-amino acid strand and it can be acetylated at any position along that chain. It was created to be easily assimilated intracellularly, so it can then can perform its powerful antioxidant and metabolic regulatory effects without prior decomposition by peptidases.
