SOFTGEL COLOR CHANGE - Please note: New softgels now have yellow tint instead of white. The old softgels white color was due to Titanium Dioxide in the softgel. The Titanium Dioxide has now been replaced by Calcium which gives the softgels their new yellow tint.

2. Can someone with soy allergies take EssentialPRO™ and Essential GSH®?

8. Why does Essential GSH® have a sulfurous smell?
Glutathione is a biologically active sulfur tripeptide and therefore, will have a slight sulfur smell. The glutathione in this product is encapsulated in liposomes, which minimizes exposure of the sulfur.

9. Can someone with intestinal yeast overgrowth take EssentialPRO™ and Essential GSH®?
Essential Nutraceuticals recommends that patients have their physicians treat their yeast overgrowth prior to any oral glutathione supplementation, as glutathione can sometimes worsen the symptoms (reason: sulfur molecule group portion feeds the yeast. This only occurs when taken orally.).
