Clinical Tests Demonstrate Long-Term Effectiveness of Oral Glutathione Supplements - Kyowa Study Whether or not humans can absorb orally administered glutathione has been debated by the medical community for years. Now a Penn State College of Medicine study shows that oral supplementation of glutathione is an effective means of enhancing the body’s stores of this vital nutrient. An Overview: Penn State College of Medicine conducted a 6-mo randomized‚ double-blind‚ placebo controlled trial to determine the impact of GSH administration at 250 mg/day and 1000 mg/day on GSH levels in different blood components and exfoliated buccal mucosal cells. After 6 mo in both high and low dose GSH groups‚ GSH levels were increased in blood and erythrocytes in a dose responsive manner. Maximum increases of 30-35% in RBC‚ plasma‚ and lymphocytes and 260% in buccal cells (P<0.05) were observed in the high dose group. In most cases‚ the increases were dose and time dependent and levels returned to baseline after a 1-month washout. A battery of immune function markers was also examined after 3 mo of GSH supplementation and Natural Killer (NK) cytotoxicity was enhanced> 2-fold in the high dose group (P<0.05).

Present in all tissues and body fluids‚ GSH plays important protective roles throughout the body‚ including the lungs‚ the digestive tract‚ and the cardiovascular system. Studies show a direct correlation between overall health and higher GSH levels‚ and that levels decrease substantially with age. Higher glutathione status and/or dietary intakes have been correlated with good cardiovascular‚ oral‚ and eye health.
