Glutathione
Your body's master antioxidant, delivered directly — supporting detox pathways, immune resilience, and skin clarity.
The cleanup crew your cells rely on.
Glutathione is the antioxidant your liver, immune system, and skin depend on to neutralize oxidative stress. Levels drop with age, alcohol, illness, and hard training — and oral versions are largely broken down before they reach circulation.
How it works
Glutathione is a tripeptide of glutamine, cysteine, and glycine that every cell produces and every cell spends. It neutralizes free radicals, recycles vitamins C and E, and is a central player in phase II liver detoxification.
Oral glutathione is poorly absorbed — most of it is digested before it can be used. Injectable delivery bypasses the gut entirely, which is why it's the format used clinically when the goal is actually raising circulating levels.
What to expect
- CadenceOne self-administered subcutaneous injection one to two times per week.
- FormatReduced L-glutathione — the active tripeptide form your cells actually use.
- ResponseMany patients notice steadier energy and clearer skin within 3–6 weeks of consistent dosing.
- Good fit ifYou want antioxidant and detoxification support, especially alongside a heavy training or travel load.
- Side-effect patternVery well tolerated. Mild injection-site redness is the most common report.
Who it's for
Glutathione suits adults carrying a high oxidative load — heavy training, frequent travel, environmental exposure — or anyone building a longevity-minded baseline.
- You train hard, travel often, or carry a heavy oxidative load.
- You want detoxification and immune support with real absorption.
- Skin clarity and tone are part of what you're solving for.
- You're already running NAD+ or MIC+B12 and want to round out the stack.
- —Known sulfite sensitivity or prior reaction to glutathione.
- —Currently pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
- —Active asthma flare without clinician clearance.
- —Under 18, or otherwise not appropriate on clinician review.
Your first 90 days
Glutathione is cumulative. Consistency matters more than dose size, and the effects tend to be felt as an absence — less drag, fewer bad days.
- Days 1–30Stores start refilling
Weekly or twice-weekly dosing begins replenishing circulating glutathione. Early changes are subtle: less post-training drag, easier recovery from a rough night.
- Days 31–60Energy and skin steady
Patients commonly report clearer, more even skin tone and steadier daily energy. Your clinician confirms cadence is right for your load.
- Days 61–90Baseline resilience
By month three you're running from a fuller tank — better tolerance for training, travel, and stress. Your clinician reviews whether to hold or adjust the protocol.
