have paved the way for breakthroughs in the world of whey. Now, a "next-generation"
whey protein product has emerged from a technology utilizing a proprietary
live enzymatic process yielding a superior whey protein with cysteine-containing
peptides, which offers what we believe to be highly bioavailable glutathione precursors.

10-20 grams per day down to 3.5 grams to produce desired results. More...
