If you’re interested in learning more about Liposomal Glutathione or have already picked up a bottle, this guide is for you! Let’s start with what this supplement actually does. To sum it up, it’s a “master antioxidant” that protects cells from oxidative stress and toxins. Unlike standard glutathione, liposomal glutathione uses a fat-based “liposome” delivery system which helps it absorb directly into cells for maximum benefit. As for what those benefits are and how you can 

Who Can Benefit from Taking Liposomal Glutathione?

Glutathione offers some powerful benefits that make it an ideal supplement for a variety of people, but is it right for you? Here are a few ways that it can be very helpful to add to your regimen:

  • If you’re aiming for a gentle detox: Glutathione is well-known for supporting the liver in processing and eliminating toxins. If you’re feeling sluggish, have had a few too many greasy takeaways, or simply want to reset, it can give your liver that extra boost to help you feel lighter and more energized.
  • For those who want extra immune support: Glutathione helps strengthen your immune defenses so it’s great to use during flu season, after a big move, or anytime you’re dealing with extra stress. It supports your body’s ability to fend off illness which is super important when you’re already rundown.
  • If you’re all about skin health and anti-aging: Glutathione can help brighten your skin by supporting cellular repair and reducing the oxidative stress that contributes to wrinkles and dullness. If you’re looking for a way to maintain a healthy glow or support anti-aging efforts naturally, glutathione is a great addition to your routine.
  • For those exposed to daily oxidative stress: Whether you live in the city, have a demanding lifestyle, or tend to eat on the go, associated factors like pollution, processed foods, and lack of sleep can take a toll on your cells. Glutathione helps combat oxidative damage to keep your cells healthy and keep you energized throughout the day. 

So, if you’re looking to support your body’s natural defenses, balance your energy, or give your skin and liver a little extra TLC, Liposomal Glutathione is a no-brainer.

What to Expect When You Start

Everyone’s experience with Liposomal Glutathione is a little different, but here’s what you might notice:

  • Increased Energy: Many people report feeling more energetic within a few days to a week.
  • Improved Skin Clarity: It’s common to experience skin benefits like a healthier glow within 1-3 weeks.
  • Reduced Inflammation: Glutathione can help keep inflammation under control, which benefits overall health.
  • Better Mental Clarity and Focus: Enhanced detoxification can also have cognitive benefits. You may experience less brain fog and feel yourself able to think clearer as your body releases accumulated toxins.
  • Enhanced Immune Resilience: The immune boosting benefits mean you might feel better equipped to fend off seasonal bugs and stress-induced physical burnout.

How to Take Liposomal Glutathione

For optimal results, we recommend starting with a daily serving of 10 pumps, which provides 60mg of glutathione. This starting point is generally effective for most people, supporting cellular health, detoxification, and antioxidant defense.

  • Beginners: Start with 1 serving (10 pumps/60mg) daily to allow your body to adjust to the supplement. These can be taken all at once or split throughout the day, depending on what feels best for you. This is often enough for many people without the need to increase it further.
  • Regular Users: If you're already accustomed to glutathione or seeking additional benefits, you can consider increasing to 2–4 servings daily (120–240 mg) based on your personal needs and how your body responds. Everyone is different, so it’s all about adjusting as you go to find what works best for you.

Adjusting Dosage and Customizing Your Routine

As with any supplement, it’s important to customize your routine based on how your body reacts. Here’s how you can adjust:

  • Starting Dose: We recommend beginning with 60 mg daily (about 10 pumps). This provides a gentle introduction, supporting your body’s detox processes and boosting antioxidant levels. This is an effective dose for most people with benefits such as increased energy, improved skin, and enhanced cellular health.
  • Increasing the Dose: After a few weeks, if you're feeling comfortable and want to enhance the effects, you can gradually increase your dosage to 120 mg daily (about 20 pumps). This might be ideal if you’re looking for more pronounced results, such as enhanced mental clarity or deeper detoxification.
  • Maximum Recommended Dose: For those seeking more intensive support, 240mg daily (about 40 pumps: 4 servings) may be appropriate. This is particularly useful for those dealing with high stress, environmental toxins, or more serious detox needs. However, always remember to increase gradually and pay attention to how your body responds. 
  • Personalizing Your Routine: The key is to adjust based on your needs. Some individuals may feel perfectly satisfied with 60 mg daily, while others may prefer the benefits of a higher dosage. Start low, listen to your body, and only increase the dosage as needed to meet your health goals. If you ever feel discomfort like mild fatigue or headaches, reduce the dosage and give your body time to adjust.

While generally very safe, some people experience mild detox symptoms but only if they start on a very high dosage, this is why our recommended dosage is 60 mg daily to start up to a max of 240 mg over time. These symptoms include headaches or fatigue as the body adjusts. These usually pass as your system gets used to the new routine but obviously it’s something you likely want to avoid, and you can do so by following this guide and not going overboard with up to 500 mg etc. In general, remember you want to take the least amount you need to get the effect you want rather than having to use more than you need (for both your health and your wallet!),

When to Take It: The pumps can be taken at any time of day but it’s best to try to take it around the same time each day for consistency - whether that’s morning or evening.

Tips: Due to its taste, some of our clients prefer to mix it with a small amount of water or juice. Also remember to shake the bottle well before each use to ensure it’s evenly distributed.

Remember to Find What Works Best for YOU
