Liposomal glutathione is a form of glutathione that has undergone a special process, encapsulating the glutathione molecule inside a lipid. Glutathione is a tripeptide known as the master antioxidant in the body, and the reduced form (GSH) is the active state that can neutralize free radicals. Liposomal glutathione is believed to have improved absorption compared to natural glutathione, and studies have shown that oral liposomal glutathione can increase reduced glutathione in the blood and intracellular glutathione levels. It is used to support detoxification, immunity, brain health, and more, and has been shown to elevate body stores of glutathione and markers of immune function when taken orally
