Liposomal Glutathione – High Absorption

MegaFood Liposomal Glutathione is a high-quality food supplement containing LipoVantage® liposomal L-glutathione. Each daily serving of two capsules provides 380 mg of glutathione in a liposomal form developed to enhance absorption and bioavailability. Glutathione is a sulphur-containing tripeptide that occurs naturally in the body and is made up of the amino acids cysteine, glycine and glutamic acid. It plays a central role in the body’s antioxidant system and is particularly important for cellular protection and the liver’s natural detoxification processes.

For optimal absorption, MegaFood recommends that adults take two capsules daily on an empty stomach or between meals with water. The product may be used as part of a long-term routine to support antioxidant status and cellular health. People who are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or receiving treatment for a medical condition should consult a qualified healthcare professional before use.

Biologically, glutathione functions as an intracellular antioxidant and participates in the body’s redox system. In its reduced form, glutathione can donate electrons to neutralise reactive oxygen species and is subsequently regenerated by the enzyme glutathione reductase. Glutathione is also used by glutathione peroxidase to neutralise hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxides, and by glutathione S-transferases in the conjugation and elimination of various substances. Liposomal technology encapsulates glutathione within lipid-based structures that help protect it during digestion and facilitate absorption through the intestine.

Why Choose MegaFood Liposomal Glutathione?

MegaFood Liposomal Glutathione combines glutathione with LipoVantage® liposomal technology. Unlike standard glutathione, the liposomal form is designed to protect glutathione as it passes through the digestive system and to improve its bioavailability.

LipoVantage® Liposomal Glutathione

• Each daily serving provides 380 mg of L-glutathione.
• The glutathione is delivered using LipoVantage® liposomal technology.
• The liposomal form is developed to enhance absorption and support good tolerability.

Support for the Body’s Antioxidant System

• Glutathione is one of the body’s most important intracellular antioxidants.
• It participates in the body’s defence against reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress.
• Glutathione works alongside vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium and several antioxidant enzyme systems.

The Liver’s Natural Detoxification Processes

• Glutathione participates in the liver’s conjugation processes through glutathione S-transferases.
• Conjugation makes certain substances more water-soluble, helping the body eliminate them more easily.
• Glutathione is also important for the antioxidant protection of liver cells.

Liposomal Technology for Enhanced Absorption

• Liposomes are small lipid-based structures that can help protect sensitive substances during digestion.
• The technology is designed to help glutathione pass through the intestine and increase its bioavailability.
• The liposomal form may be gentler on the stomach than standard non-liposomal glutathione.

What Is Glutathione?

Glutathione is a tripeptide that the body can produce from the amino acids cysteine, glycine and glutamic acid. It is found within the body’s cells and occurs in particularly high concentrations in the liver. Glutathione alternates between a reduced form, GSH, and an oxidised form, GSSG. The balance between these two forms is an important part of cellular redox balance.

Glutathione acts as a cofactor and substrate in several enzymatic systems. Glutathione peroxidase uses glutathione to reduce peroxides, while glutathione reductase regenerates reduced glutathione with the help of NADPH. Glutathione also participates in the metabolism of certain medicines, foreign substances and naturally occurring metabolites.
