Answer
Liposomal glutathioneReduced glutathione
Is an active form of glutathione that is contained inside a lipid molecule to supplement absorptionIs an active form of glutathione that does not go through encapsulation
Has a shorter shelf life and a bad tasteHas a longer shelf life and has no bad taste
Is absorbed by the human body in high amountsIs absorbed by the human body in low amounts
Has safety concerns due to soy lecithin being presentHas fewer safety concerns
