Pure Therapro RxAcetyl Glutathione Gold 200mg | 2 Month Supply Acid-Resistant Capsule | Patented Acetylated Form of Glutathione | Zero Fillers Or Flow Agents | Pharmaceutical Grade, Non-GMO

After reading an article about children with autism and their low Glutathione production we decided to give this product a try. For one of my children the effects were WOW! At 7, he's been making gains in fine motor, gross motor and engaging with people and surroundings more than ever. His OT keeps commenting about how "on fire" he's been this last few months. We, at this point, only use 1/3 of a pill (in juice water), I'm very careful about supplementing and I like to dose up slowly but this is for sure a winner for my oldest. We also tried it for my middle child and his body didn't react as well, we had an increase in stim behavior so we tried a different product in the line, Nfr2 and that has been a winner for him- (I'll be reviewing that after we give it another month or so). Each person is different, but this has been well worth the investment for us. This bottle will last us MONTHS!We've also been using the methyl B product from this line for over a year and I don't ever want be without it. This company and their products are excellent.

I recently learned that Acetyl Glutathione is just as effective as the lyposheric form. A few years ago I took LivOn Labs Lyposheric Glutathione and it was excellent. I needed to take it again this year and found it to be not nearly as potent it was a few years back. So I ordered a bottle of the S-Acetyl Glutathione Gold and started taking 2 caps four times a day. After the second dose I noticed a difference in energy and my headache from the upper respiratory infection I had went away as well as the body aches I was having. After the third dose I could definitely tell it was helping me. I will now order this and use it from now on. You can take this bottle with you and don't have to worry about refrigerating it:)

This form of Glutathione, in clinical trials, has proven to be almost as effective as IV Glutathione therapy. Oral glutathione does not absorb well into cells (where ANY substance does it's work) and a lot must be taken to realize even a small benefit. As I didn't really want to visit my physician's office multiple times and have a needle stuck in my arm and pay for the pleasure, I opted to try this first. This product is a bit on the pricey side, but so far I really do believe it has proven beneficial to me and that I'm getting my money's worth. As to the "placebo effect" I've given this to my older terrier and he definitely shows more energy and his eyes brighten up, so there is some positive effect there. Glutathione is a very essential substance for the body and many people could benefit with supplementation. Especially those with "leaky gut" and older people.

Late last year I took Levaquin for a supposed URTI - Within the month I developed 29 different symptoms that range from tendon ruptures to nervous system issues (Brain fog etc). I've tried pretty much everything you can think of - And now I'm going to load myself up on this for a Glutathione challenge (1 pill every hour for 16 hours) - Please see below for the reasoning (and why you're probably not taking enough of it)One thing about S-A-Glutathione, it seems to be a much more bioavailable form of Glutathione, significantly more than the Liposomal Based Glutathiones (Anderson et al., 1985; 2004) - Has Antiviral activities (Vogel et al., 2005). However, All Glutathione have a shared flaw; The half life of Glutathione in serum is 10 minutes - According to Hong et al. (2005, Table 1). Glutathione was given to 7 human volunteers in IV form (50mg of Glutathione per kg of body weight) - Peak serum levels were reached at 10 minutes - Glutathione levels went from 4.3 (before IV) to 154 at 10 minutes, then dropped off to 11.1, 10 minutes later. Serum levels of GSH (Glutathione) returned to control values after 30 minutes. Total GSH levels went from 14.0 to 1219.8, then went back to baseline after 2 hours. According to Vogel et al. (2005, p. 57) S-Acetyl-L-Glutathione (S-GSH) as well as base Glutathione (GSH) serum levels increased by 8 and 4 fold respectively with supplementation of S-Acetyl-L-Glutathione. Total GSH was elevated for awhile as cellular systems absorbed it directly.Lu (1999) describes treatment with any form of Glutathione, should used with /high/ dosages (1000mg?+) to reach therapeutic values due to the shortcomings I mentioned. This finally explains to me why most of all the Glutathione treatments people have tried that doesn't work; They simply are not taking enough! Cursorily, I wonder what would happen if I took one pill each hour for the 'day'. 16 pills at 200mg would be enough to keep my serum GSH levels elevated for a long time, perhaps to help reverse any mitochondrial dysfunction I probably have from the levaquin.Citations:Hong, Sae-Yong et al. “Pharmacokinetics of Glutathione and Its Metabolites in Normal Subjects.” Journal of Korean Medical Science 20.5 (2005): 721–726.

I liked that this arrived as quickly as it did.I had run out of my usual brand of glutathione that I used and needed to get something to space the gap between when my typical brand of glutathione would run out and when my next order of it would arrive. So this was a good filler glutathione to space that gap.It works and isn't a placebo.The product was in good condition, no broken seals or anything wonky.I would recommend this particular glutathione to anyone trying to sift through the plethora of different types out on the market nowadays. ;)

They work well to supply the liver with detox

I have been using S-Acetyl Glutathione GOLD for well over two years. In that time I have noticed some slight variation in the product's color. The last batch was too much different than any of the others. Variations in color mean variations in the product. I expect and need more reliability in consumables. I was unable to resolve the problem with the company.

Glutathione is the body's major antioxidant. Some people's bodies don't make enough of their own. Mine is one of those. This is a good therapeutic grade glutathione to boost the stores so my body can deal with daily chemical and other exposures inherent in daily life.
