Is Yeast-derived Glutathione Becoming More Preferred?
At present, most of the glutathione on the market is enzymatically synthesized products. Xi'an Lvquan has creatively developed a method to extract glutathione from brewer's yeast. Compared with ordinary glutathione, yeast-derived glutathione has the advantages of being healthier from natural sources, cheaper and more stable in price, more stable in supply, and more stable in quality.
Glutathione (glutathione, r-glutamyl cysteingl + glycine, GSH) is a tripeptide containing γ-amide bonds and sulfhydryl groups. It is composed of glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine and exists in almost every cell of the body. People can obtain glutathione through a balanced diet. For example, garlic, onions, cruciferous vegetables, avocados, spinach, walnuts, tomatoes and asparagus all contain glutathione.
Glutathione can help maintain normal immune system function and has antioxidant and integrated detoxification effects. The sulfhydryl group on cysteine is its active group (so it is often abbreviated as G-SH), which is easy to combine with certain drugs, toxins, etc., giving it an integrated detoxification effect. Glutathione can not only be used in drugs, but also as a base material for functional foods. It is widely used in functional foods such as delaying aging, enhancing immunity, and anti-tumor.
At present, most glutathione on the market is enzymatically synthesized products. In recent years, with the increasing awareness of health among people, glutathione from natural sources has become more popular in the market. After a lot of R&D investment, Xi'an Green Spring creatively developed a method to extract glutathione from brewer's yeast. Natural glutathione is produced by fermentation of yeast such as brewer's yeast. It is also a small molecule peptide composed of glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine. It exists in two forms: reduced and oxidized, and the reduced glutathione accounts for the majority.
Compared with ordinary glutathione, yeast-derived glutathione has the following advantages:
