Glutathione with Vitamin C is a combination of two of the body’s premier antioxidant nutrients that are also its premier antitoxins. Reduced glutathione, a thiol antioxidant nutrient, is a major water-phase antioxidant inside the cell, while ascorbate is a major water-phase antioxidant outside the cell. The liver is the body’s main detoxification organ; it reacts potentially toxic foreign chemicals such as bromobenzene, carbon tetrachloride, and acetaminophen together with water-soluble antioxidants to render them water-soluble, then excretes them mainly via the bile and the urine. Glutathione with Vitamin C supports primarily phase II detoxification. |
