Have you ever wondered what’s in MaxGXL and why? Here’s a look at the ingredient list with some short explanations about why these exact ingredients are importants in MAX-GXL.
Vitamin C – Vitamin C is one of the network antioxidants. As a supplement it is familiar to most people and it’s importance has been recognized since 1747 when it was identified by James Lind of His Majesty’s Royal Navy and offered to sailors in the form of oranges and lemons to prevent and/or cure scurvy. Vitamin C is a water soluble antioxidant that has a unique relationship to glutathione in that it can regenerate glutathione back to its active form. Glutathione also returns the favour to Vitamin C.
L-Glutamine – When glutamine is introduced into the body it is converted to Glutamic Acid. Glutamic acid is actually one of the three amino acids which are the blocks upon which the synthesis of glutathione is achieved.
NAC – Without NAC ( fully named N-Acetylcysteine) the delicate amino acid L-cysteine would never make it through the tough environment of the intestinal tract to be absorbed into the body. L-cysteine like glutamic acid is one of the main building blocks the body needs for the production of glutathione.
ALA – Alpha Lipoic Acid – sometimes just call Lipoic Acid, is another of the network antioxidants, a group that includes glutathione, Vitamins C& E, CoEnzymeQ10. ALA is unique in that it is capable of repairing itself and is both fat and water soluble. Because of this it can support both the fatty membrane and the watery nucleus of the cell. During strenuous exercise Alpha Lipoic Acid can help to avoid damage to your muscles. ALA also helps to regenerate glutathione in the body.
GSH Absorption and Recycling Blend including N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine This ingredient aids in the absorption of both glutamine and NAC through the intestinal tract and into the bloodstream. Milk thistle extracts contribute a number of different compounds with antioxidant properties and are important supports for your liver where it helps to preserve glutathione and keep your liver healthy. Cordyceps is a well known and powerful anti-inflammatory agent. Having cordyceps present to fight inflammation helps to preserve your glutathione and keep it available to perform other functions in the body. Quercetin also provides additional antioxidant support for your body that complements the work of glutathione.
