Gamma-Glutamylcysteine Powder: Premium Antioxidant Support for Cellular Health
Product Overview
Gamma-Glutamylcysteine (GGC) Powder is a high-purity dipeptide composed of glutamate and cysteine, serving as the critical precursor for glutathione (GSH) synthesis—the body’s master antioxidant. Designed for pharmaceutical, research, and nutraceutical applications, our product adheres to stringent USP standards for quality and consistency .
Key Benefits & Mechanisms
- Boosts Intracellular Glutathione Levels
GGC bypasses the rate-limiting step of GSH synthesis, efficiently replenishing cellular glutathione. Unlike oral glutathione, GGC exhibits superior bioavailability, entering cells via osmosis and converting to GSH intracellularly . This makes it ideal for aging populations or individuals with chronic conditions where GSH production is impaired . - Powerful Antioxidant & Detoxification Support
GGC directly neutralizes free radicals and peroxides, reducing oxidative stress. It also enhances the activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPx), a key enzyme in detoxifying harmful metabolites . - Anti-Inflammatory & Neuroprotective Effects
Studies show GGC reduces pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-α, IL-6) and increases anti-inflammatory IL-10, protecting brain endothelial cells and mitigating neurodegenerative risks . - Supports Metabolic & Immune Health
By regulating redox balance, GGC aids in energy metabolism, immune function, and cellular repair. It is particularly beneficial post-exercise, during recovery, or in toxin exposure scenarios .
Applications
- Pharmaceuticals: Used in drug formulations targeting oxidative stress-related diseases (e.g., neurodegenerative disorders, diabetes) .
- Nutraceuticals: As a dietary supplement for antioxidant support and immune enhancement.
- Research: Essential in studying GSH biosynthesis, lipid peroxidation, and cellular aging .
Product Specifications
- Purity: ≥95% (HPLC-verified) .
- Packaging: Available in 10mg, 25mg, 50mg, 100mg, and 200mg units. Customizable bulk options.
