Whey protein concentrate and lactoferrin are added for their ability to stabilize glutathione and provide additional antiviral and antimicrobial support.
Glutathione is a tripeptide molecule synthesized in the body from three amino acids: cysteine, glycine, and glutamate. Glutathione is considered one of the body's most powerful antioxidants. It is involved in several enzyme systems necessary for detoxification, neutralizing free radicals, and maintaining blood-brain barrier function. A number of health problems are associated with low intracellular glutathione levels, including neurological deficits, cognitive problems, Parkinson's disease, autism, and respiratory problems. Simply put, glutathione deficiency is a marker of mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. CytoMatrix Liposomal Glutathione utilizes Cyto-Sorb, a unique, patented technology, to create a stable, multi-layered liposome with additional micellar glutathione delivery.
In addition, whey protein concentrate and lactoferrin are included as necessary stabilizing agents for the glutathione molecule, preventing it from oxidizing and degrading into its parent amino acids, cysteine, glutamine, and glycine. Lactoferrin is a therapeutic product in its own right, capable of carefully transporting iron throughout the body and providing antiviral and antimicrobial protection. Together, the processing techniques and the addition of whey protein concentrate and lactoferrin ensure micronutrient stability, improved bioavailability, and the sustained delivery of glutathione to intestinal absorption sites.
