GLUTATHIONE
Mercury Detox Supplements : Glutathione
Glutathione is one of our best-selling mercury detox supplements. It's the body's master detoxifier and our main antioxidant—and supplementing it supports healthy cellular function. Toxins become linked to glutathione, which then carries them into the bile and the stool, and out of the body. It protects each cell's delicate chemical machinery and helps energy metabolism run efficiently. Glutathione is also integral to the immune system, especially for resistance to viruses. Absorption of glutathione by typical oral delivery is greatly inhibited by breakdown in the stomach. The tiny particles of our liposomal Glutathione greatly enhance absorption.

Quicksilver Scientific Etheric Delivery TM Phospholipid Encapsulation System with Sunflower-Derived Phospholipids
1.7 oz, Precision Pump-top
Quicksilver’s Phospholipid Encapsulation Etheric Delivery™ protects the glutathione from digestive enzymes that otherwise prevent absorption of oral glutathione supplementation. In cell cultures, liposomal products have demonstrated over 100 times more efficiency for intracellular delivery than IV-based glutathione.
Quicksilver Scientific Etheric Delivery™ Glutathione comes with a precision pump to accurately deliver 50 mg of reduced glutathione and 68 mg of injectable-grade essential phospholipids per pump. The patent-pending process, plus our natural lemon flavoring, allows this product to be taken intra-orally for maximum absorption without the foul sulfur taste typical of liposomal glutathione products. Product can be dosed every 3-4 hours for even delivery throughout the day. Each bottle delivers 100, 0.5-ml doses.
Quicksilver’s Etheric Delivery™ Phospholipid Encapsulation System brings the power of intravenous therapy into a convenient oral delivery. Our Etheric Delivery™improves upon liposomal technology with smaller, more stable, single-layer spheres made from the highest-grade ingredients available. In addition to exceptional absorption rates, nanospheres like Quicksilver’s have demonstrated the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, deposit their cargo intracellularly and enter lymphatic circulation. Additionally, the phospholipids that compose the liposome shell feed the cell membranes. This ensures proper function for the absorption of nutrients and the excretion of cellular waste products and toxins.
Suggested Usage: For general antioxidant and detoxification protection, use 8 pumps per day (400mg Glutathione). For advanced protection, use up to 20 per day (1000mg Glutathione) or more, in divided doses throughout the day. For large doses, take 2 pumps at a time to allow for maximum oral absorption, and hold at least 30 seconds before swallowing. Children should start at ~1/4 of adult (2 pumps per day) dosage and work up.
Production Technology Features:
Tightly controlled small sizing, verified by Laser Dynamic Light Scattering on each batch of Glutathione
Flavored with essential oils, giving pleasant citrus taste, suitable for intra-buccal delivery
Precise Pump Delivery
Easy Water Dispersability when desired
Benefits:
Intraoral delivery for best systemic availability
Easy to dispense and take directly from bottle
Excellent for topical use: for application to cold sores or other viral lesions.
GABA with L-THEANINE
GABA with L-Theanine
Relax Your Brain
GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is an amino acid produced in the human body that functions as the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. (1) GABA is associated with the parasympathetic side of the autonomic nervous system which balances the sympathetic (fight-or-flight) side. Our Gaba with L-Theanine is a cornerstone of functional medicine, as it helps balance our nervous system, which supports optimal health.
Many pharmacological agents exert anxiolytic, analgesic, anticonvulsant and sedative effects by modulating GABA receptor activity, or blocking the reuptake of GABA, thus increasing GABA activity. (2,3) Many toxins, such as mercury, and some physical traumas, such as head trauma, elicit neurotoxic effects through glutamate receptors in the brain (called NMDA-mediated neurotoxicity). This produces a feedback loop of inflammation, neurotoxicity, and anxiety. GABA supplementation can help break that loop by building the pool of GABA. Use of powdered GABA is not efficient because it is poorly absorbed and does not easily cross the blood-brain barrier. Studies have shown that GABA administered with phosphatidylserine improved GABA’s activity and was proposed to be due to an increased ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. (4,5) Quicksilver Scientific’s Etheric Delivery GABA produces a very quick and powerful effect. Try this “busy-ness” antidote once and you will know!
L-Theanine is an amino acid found naturally in tea. Research suggests that theanine affects inhibitory neurotransmission (parasympathetic) and has been shown to have relaxing effects on cognitive thinking and blood pressure. (6,7,8)

General Suggested Usage: Take 4 pumps whenever needed, especially before bed. Take 2 pumps at a time directly by mouth, hold 30 seconds and then swallow. GABA has also shown useful before taking detoxification products to dampen negative responses.
