Category: Antioxidant / Immune Support / Skin Health | Evidence Grade: A | Form: Effervescent Tablets or Capsules
V-GLUTATION is a professional-grade antioxidant, immune support, and skin health formula built around the body's most important endogenous antioxidant: Reduced Glutathione (L-GSH). Available as effervescent tablets or capsules, this synergistic stack pairs a therapeutic 500mg dose of reduced glutathione with 1000mg of Vitamin C and 150mg of Alpha Lipoic Acid â three compounds that work in concert to maintain, regenerate, and amplify your cellular antioxidant defenses.
Unlike single-ingredient glutathione supplements, V-GLUTATION's multi-compound approach directly addresses the entire antioxidant recycling network: replenishing active glutathione, recycling it once oxidized, and ensuring broad-spectrum free radical neutralization across both water-soluble and fat-soluble cellular environments.
This product is part of the Detox Collection by Vital Health Global and is suitable for adults seeking comprehensive oxidative stress protection, liver detoxification support, immune enhancement, and visible skin brightening.
Each ingredient in V-GLUTATION was selected for its evidence-based role in the glutathione and antioxidant recycling pathway. Together, they form a complete, self-reinforcing antioxidant system.
Mechanism: Glutathione (GSH) is the cell's primary intracellular antioxidant, present in virtually every cell in the human body. In its reduced (active) form, it neutralizes reactive oxygen species (ROS), detoxifies harmful compounds via glutathione-S-transferase enzymes, and supports immune cell proliferation. Oral supplementation with reduced glutathione has been shown to increase blood and tissue glutathione levels, particularly with consistent daily dosing.
Mechanism: Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) plays a critical supporting role in the glutathione cycle. It directly recycles oxidized glutathione (GSSG) back to its active reduced form (GSH), effectively extending the functional lifespan of every glutathione molecule. Beyond glutathione recycling, Vitamin C independently scavenges free radicals in aqueous cellular environments, stimulates collagen synthesis for skin structural integrity, and enhances immune cell function. The 1000mg dose reflects the level used in clinical studies for measurable antioxidant and skin brightening effects.
Clinical Evidence (PubMed ID): 29099763
Mechanism: Alpha Lipoic Acid is unique among antioxidants in that it is both water-soluble and fat-soluble, allowing it to neutralize free radicals across all cellular compartments â including cell membranes and cytoplasm â where glutathione alone cannot reach. Critically, ALA also directly regenerates oxidized glutathione and recycles Vitamin C and Vitamin E, making it an essential hub in the antioxidant recycling network. ALA additionally supports mitochondrial energy metabolism and has demonstrated benefits in reducing oxidative markers in clinical settings.

The three-ingredient synergy in V-GLUTATION delivers benefits that are individually supported by peer-reviewed research and amplified by the combination:
V-GLUTATION's formula is supported by 4 peer-reviewed, PubMed-indexed clinical studies examining reduced glutathione, Vitamin C, and Alpha Lipoic Acid individually and in combination. All three ingredients carry an evidence grade of A, reflecting robust, reproducible human clinical data.

| 24791752 | Reduced Glutathione | Oral GSH supplementation significantly increased whole blood glutathione levels over 6 months | A |
| 22108475 | Reduced Glutathione | GSH supplementation reduced skin melanin index and improved skin tone in a double-blind RCT | A |
| 29099763 | Vitamin C | High-dose Vitamin C recycled glutathione and reduced oxidative stress markers in healthy adults | A |
| 22228617 | Alpha Lipoic Acid | ALA regenerated oxidized glutathione and Vitamin C, amplifying the cellular antioxidant network | A |
Overall Evidence Grade: A â High-quality human clinical data with consistent replication across independent research groups.
V-GLUTATION is available in effervescent tablet or capsule form. The following dosing tiers are based on clinical literature and manufacturer recommendations:
| User Level | Dose | Timing | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beginner | 1 tablet/capsule daily | Morning with breakfast | Ideal starting dose; assess tolerance over 2â4 weeks |
| Intermediate | 1 tablet/capsule twice daily | Morning and evening with meals | For enhanced antioxidant support and skin brightening |
| Advanced | 2 tablets/capsules twice daily | Morning and evening with meals | Under healthcare practitioner supervision only |
Practical Tips:
V-GLUTATION has an excellent overall safety profile based on the extensive clinical literature for all three ingredients. Each compound has decades of human safety data supporting long-term daily use.

| Synergistic Network Effect | Yes | No | No | No |
A: Cellular antioxidant effects begin within days of consistent use, but visible skin brightening outcomes typically emerge within 4â8 weeks of daily supplementation. Clinical studies measuring melanin index reductions used durations of 8â12 weeks. For liver detox and immune support, benefits accumulate progressively with consistent use.
A: Yes. V-GLUTATION pairs well with Vitamin E (further amplifies the antioxidant recycling network), CoQ10 (mitochondrial energy and antioxidant support), Selenium (cofactor for glutathione peroxidase enzymes), and B-complex vitamins. Avoid combining with supplements that contain pro-oxidant ingredients unless under practitioner guidance.
A: Yes. All three ingredients have extensive long-term safety data. Reduced glutathione supplementation was studied safely for up to 6 months in clinical trials, and Vitamin C and Alpha Lipoic Acid have decades of human safety data at these doses. Consult your healthcare provider for use beyond 12 months at higher doses.
A: The three-ingredient synergy addresses the entire antioxidant lifecycle: GSH provides active antioxidant capacity, Vitamin C recycles it once oxidized, and ALA regenerates both Vitamin C and GSH while providing fat-soluble free radical protection. Single-ingredient glutathione supplements skip the recycling step, making them significantly less efficient.
A: V-GLUTATION is ideal for adults seeking skin brightening and even skin tone, those with high oxidative stress loads (athletes, smokers, individuals exposed to environmental pollutants), people supporting liver health and detoxification, and anyone wanting comprehensive immune antioxidant protection.
Glutathione is the body's master intracellular antioxidant, essential for neutralizing free radicals, supporting liver Phase II detoxification, modulating immune cell activity, and â at supplemental doses â promoting skin brightening by inhibiting melanin synthesis pathways.
Peer-reviewed randomized controlled trials have demonstrated measurable reductions in skin melanin index with oral glutathione doses of 250â500mg per day over 8â12 weeks. V-GLUTATION provides 500mg per serving, matching the upper clinical dose range.
Yes. A landmark 6-month randomized controlled trial (PMID 24791752) confirmed that oral reduced glutathione significantly increased whole blood and erythrocyte glutathione levels, dispelling earlier skepticism about oral bioavailability when the reduced (active) form is used at adequate doses.
Reduced glutathione at 500mg is generally very well tolerated, with no significant adverse effects reported in clinical trials. The main side effect risk in V-GLUTATION comes from the 1000mg Vitamin C component, which may cause GI discomfort (bloating, loose stools) in sensitive individuals â minimized by taking with food.
Yes. Alpha Lipoic Acid directly reduces oxidized glutathione (GSSG) back to its active form (GSH) within cells, and also upregulates the enzyme gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase, which is involved in de novo glutathione biosynthesis. This makes ALA a powerful amplifier of endogenous glutathione status.
Absolutely â and this combination is scientifically recommended. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is one of the primary biological agents that recycles oxidized glutathione back to its active reduced form. Co-supplementation with both compounds produces synergistic antioxidant effects superior to either ingredient alone.
