The body's master antioxidant - a tripeptide composed of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. Found in every cell at concentrations similar to glucose (5mM). Essential for detoxification, immune function, and cellular protection against oxidative stress.

Similar Peptides

DSIP

Anti-Aging

A neuropeptide that promotes deep delta wave sleep. First isolated from rabbit brains in 1977. Used for sleep optimization and stress reduction.

Humanin

Anti-Aging

A mitochondria-derived peptide discovered for its neuroprotective effects against Alzheimer's-related toxicity. Being studied for aging and metabolic benefits.

NAD+ Precursors

Anti-Aging

While not peptides, NAD+ precursors are frequently discussed alongside peptides in longevity circles. They boost cellular NAD+ levels, supporting energy metabolism and sirtuin activity.

SS-31

Anti-Aging

A mitochondria-targeted peptide that improves cellular energy production. Being developed for heart failure and mitochondrial diseases.

BPC-157

Healing

A synthetic peptide derived from a protein found in human gastric juice. Known for its remarkable tissue healing properties across multiple body systems.

TB-500

Healing

A synthetic 17-amino acid fragment of Thymosin Beta-4 (TB-4). NOT the same as TB-4 - TB-500 has a longer half-life (~2-4 days vs ~2 hours) and is the active region responsible for tissue repair and cell migration. Note: Many vendors mislabel TB-4 as 'TB-500' in premixed products.
