Buy Glutathione – Reduced L-Glutathione from Plant Fermentation

Glutathione is a molecule produced by the body itself, built from the three amino acids glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine – a so-called tripeptide and thus a sulphur-containing natural substance. In this category, you'll find glutathione preparations from Scheunengut in the reduced, active L-form – vegan, bottled in Germany and lab-tested.

Origin & Extraction

For food supplements, glutathione is obtained predominantly through plant fermentation, for example with the help of yeast cultures. In this way the reduced L-form (GSH) is created, which is preferred over the oxidised variant. As a sulphur-containing tripeptide, glutathione is closely related to sulphur-rich amino acids.

Standardisation & Format

What matters is the statement of the reduced form (reduced L-glutathione, GSH) as well as a transparently declared content per portion. Glutathione is offered above all as a capsule, sometimes also as a powder. It is frequently combined with natural vitamin C; thematically related raw materials are NAC and alpha-lipoic acid.

What to Look for When Buying

  • Reduced, active L-form (GSH) with transparently declared content
  • Origin from plant fermentation
  • Vegan and without unnecessary additives
  • Independently lab-tested quality

Häufige Fragen zu Glutathione

Why is glutathione important?

Glutathione is a molecule naturally produced by the body, made up of the three amino acids glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine – a sulphur-containing tripeptide. As a natural component of the body, it's a popular supplement. At Scheunengut, you get it in the reduced, active L-form, vegan and lab-tested.

What is reduced L-glutathione (GSH)?

The reduced L-form (GSH) is the active variant of glutathione and is preferred over the oxidised form. It's produced through plant-based fermentation. When buying, make sure the product explicitly states reduced L-glutathione (GSH) with a transparently declared content per serving.

Is glutathione vegan?

Yes. For food supplements, glutathione is mostly produced through plant-based fermentation, for example using yeast cultures. This process yields the reduced L-form without any animal-derived raw materials. Scheunengut's glutathione supplements are vegan, bottled in Germany and lab-tested.

What should I look for when buying glutathione?

Make sure the reduced, active form (reduced L-glutathione, GSH) is stated, along with a transparently declared content per serving. Clean, fermentation-based production and independent lab testing are also important. Our glutathione is vegan and bottled in Germany.
