The Main Ingredient Is: L-Cysteine (Amino Acid)

L-Cysteine is a non-essential sulphur-containing amino acid that helps protein synthesis and cellular function. This form is supplied in its natural amino acid form with cofactors that support its metabolism and antioxidant activity.

This product includes vitamin C and vitamin B6 to support cysteine metabolism and antioxidant function; these cofactors can aid in the normal utilisation of cysteine within the body.

What L-Cysteine Does?

L-Cysteine helps in the synthesis of glutathione, the body's master antioxidant involved in cellular defence and protection against oxidative stress. Scientific research shows that cysteine supports antioxidant capacity and immune function at normal physiological levels.

Evidence from clinical trials suggests that cysteine may help maintain antioxidant status and cellular health, with benefits described in studies led by Dr. Valls at a university, published in a peer-reviewed journal.
