Lypo-Spheric Glutathione - 30 Packets – 450 mg Glutathione Per Packet – Liposome Encapsulated for Maximum Bioavailability – Professionally Formulated – 100% Non-GMO

As I've written about in some of my other reviews, I've been recovering (for the past 14 months) from adrenal fatigue and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) that resulted from a systemic Candida infection and leaky gut. Accordingly, I've spent these last 14 months researching adrenal fatigue/CFS/systemic Candida pretty aggressively. Ultimately, signs, such as hives erupting all over my body, started manifesting that made me realize I was in desperate need of detox. The toxins produced by Candida, namely ethanol (which the body converts into acetaldehyde) have detrimental effects on several systems of the body, including endocrine, nervous, and immune systems. So, I dutifully began a detox regime about two months ago. I experienced all the symptoms one would expect: the increased muscle aches, headaches, flu-like symptoms. But I was seeing very little in the way of improvement. And suffering quite a bit along the way. I read about glutathione and that it is a necessary antioxidant for cells, especially those of the liver, to detox the body. Any kind of stress, including illness or chronic infection, can significantly deplete the body's stores of glutathione; obviously, this would result in less energy and a decreased ability to remove toxic substances from the body. I immediately started taking NOW Foods Nac-Acetyl Cysteine 600mg, 250 Vcaps , because NAC is a precursor for glutathione in the body. However, I did not experience positive results until I was taking huge amounts of this stuff - roughly 9-10 capsules per day! I knew there had to be a better way. I found this product mentioned on some website I was reading about glutathione. I have a background in biology and biochemistry, so the idea of liposomal absorption made sense to me. In addition, the phospholipids that enclose the glutathione are all ones that our cells need anyway (and that I already supplement daily); so this product does double-duty for me. The product arrived quickly, and I immediately took a packet by dumping it in my mouth and chasing it with some cold water. Glutathione is a tripeptide rich in sulfur (which partly accounts for its terrific detoxification abilities), and, boy, can you ever smell/taste the "rotten egg" aroma. That being said, I've since started pouring the contents into a small glass of water, stirring it briefly, holding my nose, and chugging it. No fuss, no muss, and no sulfur-y smell or taste to deal with. I noticed a small improvement in how "toxic" I felt after that first dose, which I suppose makes sense considering how overridden with toxins my body is. Initially, I was taking two packets a day but started taking three, and that helps me even more. I feel almost normal. For someone suffering from a chronic illness, this is significant improvement. If this stuff was not so expensive, I'd take four a day. Because every cell needs glutathione and because I am so abjectly depleted, I in no way worry about taking too much. I take it about 30 minutes before each meal. If you have any type of chronic disease or illness, I encourage you to try this product. Sure, it's expensive, but it's so worth it! Read up on glutathione depletion and oxidative stress. I'm noticing that these are often at the root of many types of chronic disease. So anything you can do to help your body will surely aid your recovery that much more quickly. Recovery for CFS is measured in years, not months, but it IS possible, provided you supply your body with the tools it needs to repair itself. I'm so impressed with this product, I intend to try the company's vitamin C product next. UPDATE 11/9/11: Despite the expense of this product, I have been taking 4 a day. A few days ago, I decided to only take one, as I want to save money anywhere I can. Well, obviously this product is one that I cannot cut down on. I felt awful that day - brain fog, very toxic, dizziness. This stuff really makes a huge difference in detox. I've been taking an infrared sauna every day to also aid in detox. This product allows me to sit in the sauna for a longer period of time than I used to (30 mins vs. 15 mins) at a higher temperature. And I don't get sick afterwards as I used to do. This stuff is FANTASTIC! And I've gotten used to the taste. I have no trouble drinking this product in a glass of water. It's no big deal. UPDATE 5/10/12: Due to the fact that I can no longer buy this product at a discounted/bulk price of ~$50 per box (see Martin's review from 5/6/12), I'm going to make my own liposomal glutathione. (I already make my own liposomal Vitamin C, which yields great results.) So, if you're considering this product for its numerous health benefits but are cringing at the price tag, google "homemade liposomal glutathione." You'll find plenty of directions on how to make this stuff. It's really easy to do, and you'll save a bundle.

Best L-Gluthathione .... it makes it past stomach acid, at least on an empty stomach it does ... for any health maintenance or heatlh tweak. Grateful grateful for this brand. Much cheaper as an L-gluthathion I.V. push.

I heard about this supplement from a podcast that I listen to and I was intrigued when they said they felt steonger, were focused and energy level were up with no crash. So I decided to spend the money and try this product and I am not disappointed. I’ve used it now for over six months. I wanted to detox to get out anything in my body from eating poorly to sleeping poorly. This antioxidant appears to really work at the cellular level just based on a better texture of my skin on my face and my arms. My spin workouts feel great and I have more power during class. Also I am an accountant and I spend hours with focused attention on the computer and I have had minimal headaches and greater focus that lasts all day. i used to get really tired around two or 3 o’clock in the afternoon and that has subsided since taking this supplement. I feel like the Supplement is helping my body physically which is translating to help in my professional life as well. To me it’s worth every penny. I’ve tried the glutathione capsules and I do not feel any of the effects I describe above but when I use the liposomal glutathione there is a clear noticeable difference. Also I wanted to add a comment about the taste. The taste is very gross. But you can easily get around that. I put a small amount of juice and a shot glass about halfway full. Then I am deed the packet and it floats on top for a second then it stinks. Then I just shoot it and I don’t taste the nasty vitamin at all. To me the taste is not even an issue if I take it this way. The key is to not stirr in the supplement with the juice in the shot glass and or you will taste it.

Ok, I was a skeptic. I heard about this on TikTok- a “rich” client of a girl came in with glowing skin and this brand and supplement is what she took daily. It’s an investment, it is expensive. I take it in the morning - first thing- I squeeze it in a shot size glass of water and shoot it down. Yes, it smells absolutely horrible- like rotting eggs- don’t smell it- squeeze it in and shoot it down- follow by a sip of water and you shouldn’t taste it. Then wait 20 min and have your coffee and you’re good to go. It is definitely not for anyone who has sensitivities to food smells- I can eat pretty much anything so I knew I could handle it. The proof is in the photos - my skin is GLOWING. I do have more energy, but I was primarily taking for skin health. Definitely a fan- these photos were taken 3.5 months apart- taking this every morning. Left is before, right is after- no makeup no filter

This is a premium product, but and a big but, its not for everyone. If you are someone who can’t eat onions, due to the high sulfur content, because they give you bad gas, painful cramps, or IBS, then do not use Glutathione as its sulfur based on a molecular level and far more intense then the IBS pain of onions. Given how expensive this product is, don’t mistake the same mistake i did. However, if your healthy or you dont have any sensitivities to sulfur like eating onions, then this is worth a try if you believe you need it. just make sure to take it with Vitamin C as it pairs well. The good news is there are many alternatives for people like myself who have a severe sensitivity to sulfur products. You can take NAC with vitamin C, you can take milk thistle which help the body make more Glutathione. Another point to make is if your low on trace minerals, especially “ Molybdenum” which helps the body break down sulfur compounds in the body it will create the pains i was having, while it doesn’t mean one can handle them any better. I’m currently exploring this to see how much a difference it makes. Adding a tiny dose of Molybdenum (often just 75mcg to 500mcg), a few days before trying sulfur foods (like onions) or supplements, can sometimes "unlock" your ability to handle sulfur without the gas and pain.

It is not easy to review supplements but I usually go by the improvements that occur while taking the product. I ordered this for my mom who had cancer and I was hoping Glutathione combined with high dose of vitamin C can improve her blood test and tumor market test. She religiously took it for two months and her energy level was great and her tumor market test improved. I can't claim that this product alone did all that but it seemed to help. Now that she has not taken it for about 4 months suddenly her tumor market test showed a higher number and she was diagnosed with an enlarged liver/spleen. This could be a result of other things too of course but I like to think that going back to Glutathione will give us better results. She is no longer in this country and sending this expensive product to her is just not possible right now but we are trying to get her a prescription of Glutathione in her country of origin. I believe in this product and with phospholipids it allows a greater absorption and delivery into our body and cells. The concept of fighting free radicals with Glutathione and detoxifying the liver from all those toxins from the chemo made sense and I am glad we chose this product. Sometimes when people are very ill we look for hope and better answers outside of the medical field. Mom's doctors were not familiar with Glutathione and only one mentioned phospholipids being a great "delivery system". If I always listened to doctors unfortunately mom would not be here today. The cons are the price but I do understand these are not cheap to make.The taste is not so pleasant but I rather have it this way than adding sugar and unhealthy additives just to make it more attractive to consumers. We mixed it with orange juice or lime aloe vera gel and it worked well for mom.

I was very excited to try these vitamins because I read online liposomal vitamins take effects faster and are better for your overall health. Anyways fast forward I open the packet today and I’m ready to put it in my water and I smell something between a baby diaper and vomit coming out of the pouch. It is beyond disgusting, like I start gagging. But I think to myself it CANT POSSIBLY TASTE AS BAD AS IT SMELLS ??? No way it has 5 stars on Amazon and the review says no smell and no taste. So I go ahead and taste the water mixed with this smelly yellow substance . I was wrong it tastes way worse than it smells, I’m sorry but I do not know how anyone can possibly drink these vitamins. I can’t even even try them Becuase they are so utterly repulsive and disgusting that I can’t even get myself to drink it. For the people who can manage to take these vitamins seems like it works but I unfortunately can not attest to the effectiveness of these liposome supplements Because I can not even get them down. The products should be honest and mention the putrid smell and taste and not falsely advertise “no taste” “no smell”. I am still trying to get the taste out of my mouth from just a small sip I am sick to my stomach. Sorry I wanted to like it but I feel like people need to know that this is just not drinkable, or maybe I got a bad batch? Who knows. But I deff will not be trying this again.

Fantastic supplement. Liposomal glutathion went a long way to solve my chemical sensitivity problems. There are other good brands like quicksilver but their problem is that they expire after 45 days. I am not a paid troll and I seldom write reviews but this is a must share. Tastes like sulfur. I open package, put in my mouth and slide it between teeth to absorb all the sachet. Thenafter drink water to chase the taste. Also I fInd people who complain about the taste utterly superficial. If you want something tasty have a cookie. If you want something that goes inside your cell and removes decades old junk, take this. And dont be a whining baby. Expensive. True. Cancel your Netflix subscription and get a pack. Doenst mix with water. True. Just swallow it. Please please dont focus on those superficial aspects. Just try it. However. Very important: 2 rules: 1 start low. ( i started with 1 quarter sachet daily) and then increased slowly. 2 pulsate. 4 days on 3 off. For 3 or 4 cycles. Then pause for a few weeks. You dont want your body to stop producing glutathione.
