What is Liposomal Glutathione?
Liposomal Glutathione by Quicksilver Scientific is a liquid glutathione supplement with a liposomal delivery system. Glutathione (composed of the amino acids L-glutamic acid, L-cysteine, and glycine) naturally occurs in every cell of the body. It is recognized as one of the most important endogenous (produced in the body) antioxidants. Although glutathione has been extensively studied, it is important to note that the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has not yet approved any official health claims for glutathione.
This supplement encapsulates glutathione in small fat particles (liposomes) designed to improve the absorption and stability of fragile nutrients like glutathione. Additionally, the product includes phosphatidylcholine (derived from soy and sunflower lecithin) as a building block for the liposomes, along with small amounts of peppermint and lemon oil for flavor.

Health Claims & EU Regulations
Since no officially EFSA-approved health claims exist for glutathione, statements about its potential benefits are based on scientific research not yet validated by European authorities. Thus, we limit our information to general observations:
- Glutathione naturally occurs in every cell and is a subject of research for its role in normal cellular function and the immune system.
- A liposomal formulation may enhance the absorption of glutathione, making it available in higher concentrations in the bloodstream and cells.
Liposomal Glutathione provides consumers with a glutathione supplement specifically designed to enhance bioavailability.
Why Choose Liposomal Glutathione by Quicksilver Scientific?
Reduced Glutathione & Liposomal Technology
The glutathione in this supplement is in its reduced form, meaning it is in its most active and antioxidant-rich state. Liposomal technology (microscopic fat particles) helps protect glutathione from breakdown in the digestive tract, aiming to improve absorption into the body.
