Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 6 of its 6 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains 6 active ingredients designed to support your body's antioxidant defenses. The core is liposomal glutathione — a powerful antioxidant your cells produce naturally — paired with selenium, molybdenum, and riboflavin as cofactors that help your body use glutathione effectively.

It also contains pyrroloquinoline quinone and a phosphatidylcholine-phosphatidylethanolamine complex, which supports cellular function and nutrient absorption. The remaining ingredients are water, natural flavors, glycerin, xanthan gum, gum arabic, and potassium sorbate — these are inactive ingredients that keep the liquid stable and drinkable.

Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: support healthy glutathione utilization and immune function.
  • We looked for evidence on: HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C, Liver disease, Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), Cirrhosis, Hepatic encephalopathy — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Phosphatidylcholine is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Alcohol-related liver disease (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Phosphatidylcholine is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Hepatic encephalopathy, Hepatitis C, Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
  • Also on file: Selenium is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Alcohol-related liver disease, Chemotherapy-induced nephrotoxicity, Cirrhosis.

In our data, selenium shows promise for selenium deficiency (Likely Effective) and possibly for Kashin-Beck disease, pre-eclampsia, and autoimmune thyroiditis, though evidence is not as strong. For dyslipidemia, the evidence suggests it's ineffective.

Molybdenum is Likely Effective for molybdenum deficiency itself but has Insufficient Reliable Evidence for acne, iron-deficiency anemia, asthma, osteoporosis, and esophageal cancer. Riboflavin's effectiveness ratings are not listed in our data.

Phosphatidylcholine may be Possibly Effective for ulcerative colitis but has Insufficient Reliable Evidence for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, alcohol-related liver disease, Alzheimer disease, and anxiety. The effectiveness of L-Glutathione and Pyrroloquinoline Quinone is not established in the data we hold.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Selenium Molybdenum Riboflavin Phosphatidylcholine

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 4 of the 4 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 4 of 4.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 4 of 4.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Selenium is generally well tolerated at recommended doses but can be toxic in excess — the upper safe daily limit is 400 mcg. Excess selenium can cause nausea, rash, headache, hair loss, and in rare cases, multi-organ failure.

Molybdenum is generally well tolerated when used appropriately (upper limit 2 mg/day), though high-dose supplements are rarely necessary and should be avoided without medical advice. Riboflavin is considered very safe and is needed in pregnancy and while breastfeeding; excess is simply cleared in your urine.

Phosphatidylcholine is generally well tolerated but may cause bloating, diarrhea, nausea, or altered taste, especially at higher doses. There is not enough reliable data on phosphatidylcholine supplement safety during pregnancy or breastfeeding beyond food sources — speak with your doctor or pharmacist.

No pregnancy or lactation data is on file for selenium, molybdenum, L-glutathione, or pyrroloquinoline quinone.

Selenium6 drug types · 321 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Selenium may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Clinical research suggests that taking selenium 10 mcg/kg/day can increase bleeding times by increasing prostacyclin production, which inhibits platelet activity. Other clinical research suggests that taking selenium 75 mcg daily, in combination with ascorbic acid 600 mg, alpha-tocopherol 300 mg, and beta-carotene 27 mg, reduces platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Barbiturates

Theoretically, selenium might prolong the sedating effects of barbiturates.
Laboratory research suggests that selenium can inhibit the hepatic metabolism of barbiturates. Selenium seems to prolong the sedative effect of pentobarbital in animal models.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, selenium supplementation may reduce the effectiveness of immunosuppressant therapy.
In vitro research and preliminary clinical evidence suggests that selenium may stimulate the immune system.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, selenium might interfere with warfarin activity.
Animal research suggests that selenium can increase warfarin activity. Selenium might interact with warfarin by displacing it from albumin binding sites, reducing its metabolism in the liver, or by decreasing production of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors. Selenium can also prolong bleeding times in humans by increasing prostacyclin production, which inhibits platelet activity.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Contraceptive Drugs

Contraceptive drugs might increase levels of selenium, although the clinical significance of this effect is unclear.
Some research suggests that oral contraceptives increase serum selenium levels in women taking oral contraceptives; however, other research shows no change in selenium levels. It is suggested that an increase could be due to increased carrier proteins, indicating a redistribution of selenium rather than a change in total body selenium.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Niacin

Selenium might reduce the beneficial effects of niacin on high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels.
A combination of niacin and simvastatin (Zocor) effectively raises HDL cholesterol levels in patients with coronary disease and low HDL levels. Clinical research shows that taking a combination of antioxidants (vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, and selenium) along with niacin and simvastatin (Zocor) attenuates this rise in HDL, specifically the HDL-2 and apolipoprotein A1 fractions, by more than 50% in patients with coronary disease. It is not known whether this adverse effect is due to a single antioxidant such as selenium, or to the combination. It also is not known whether it will occur in other patient populations.

Likelihood Possible Evidence A
Selenium full monograph & interactions

Riboflavin1 drug type · 20 drugs

Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, taking riboflavin with tetracycline antibiotics may decrease the potency of these antibiotics.
In vitro research suggests that riboflavin may inhibit the potency of tetracycline antibiotics. It is not clear if this effect is clinically significant, as this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Optimal Liposomal Glutathione Plus 350 mg with Cofactors by Seeking Health: Common Questions

Does Optimal Liposomal Glutathione Plus 350 mg with Cofactors by Seeking Health interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Optimal Liposomal Glutathione Plus 350 mg with Cofactors has a known interaction with 340 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Optimal Liposomal Glutathione Plus 350 mg with Cofactors contains 6 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
What exactly is glutathione and why is it in liposomal form?
Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant your own cells make — it helps protect them from damage. Liposomal form means it's wrapped in tiny fat particles to help your body absorb it better than plain glutathione would.
Will this turn my urine bright yellow?
It might. Riboflavin, one of the ingredients, commonly causes dose-related bright yellow urine — that's harmless and just means excess is being cleared by your kidneys. Some people on higher doses have also reported increased urination.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Riboflavin is considered safe and needed during pregnancy and breastfeeding at recommended amounts. However, we don't have reliable safety data for the other active ingredients during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and the phosphatidylcholine data is limited. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist to weigh the benefits and risks for your situation.
Are there any side effects I should watch for?
Most people tolerate this well. Selenium at high doses can cause nausea, headache, rash, or hair loss; phosphatidylcholine may cause bloating, diarrhea, nausea, or altered taste. Stay within the recommended dose and stop if you notice unusual symptoms.
Can I take this if I have liver problems?
That's a conversation for your doctor or pharmacist — the facts I have don't address liver safety specifically. Bring this product with you when you check with them.
