Preferred Label : Cysteine-Rich Non-Denatured Whey Protein Isolate IMN1207;
NCIt synonyms : Cysteine-Rich Whey-Derived Protein Formulation; Cysteine-Rich Protein Formulation;
NCIt definition : A biologically active, cysteine-rich, undenatured, bovine whey-based protein isolate
with potential anti-cachexia and glutathione-enhancing properties. Upon administration
of cysteine-rich whey protein isolate, cystine and glutamylcystine are taken up by
cells and release free cysteine. The available cysteine allows cells to synthesize
glutathione (GSH), a tripeptide made from amino acids glycine, glutamate and cysteine,
thereby maintaining and increasing intracellular GSH concentrations. GSH plays a major
role as an antioxidant, thereby protecting cells from oxidative damage due to harmful
substances such as free radicals and reactive oxygen compounds. As IMN 1207 is rich
in protein, this agent may prevent weight loss and increase body weight and strength.;
