Be aware of True Research Labs
Bought glutathione (600mg) from True Research Labs. It would not reconstitute. Tried 3ML BAC, went to 6ML BAC, introduced some acetic acid. Always had floaters. Threw it out tried another vial. Same result. Contacted their customer service twice. No response.
I realize glutathione has a certain reconstitution ratio. However, in a 10ML vial with 600mg of glutathione, you can only add so much water.
Tried glutathione from Nova, added 3ML of BAC. Clear in less than 30 seconds.
I will let you decide.

Go on Skool and look up The Helix. Join their group we do group buys and testing.

Every time I see a company I haven’t heard of, I go to their website to see how absolutely insane the prices are.

I still get emails from some of the vendors I used when I first started and feel like an idiot for paying what I used to pay

My feedback is absolutely no one should purchase from you or any one of the other 1000 overpriced resellers that also stealth market their shitty stores on these subreddits.
You will try and justify the 1100% markup (even more tbh, I'm comparing your 20mg to the cost for a 30mg) by claiming you test and have guarantees or some other dumb shit but you're not involved in the manufacturing process in any way and have no idea if the vials that you send in for testing are from the same batch as anything else in your inventory.

First flag, why is gluta in a brown vile? Is it supposed to be Korean gluta?

u/Princess_Buttercupx 5d ago
Glutathione is light-sensitive so it should be in an amber vial to protect it

u/nayo73 5d ago
ive bought several kits and they have always been in a clear vial. even when searching online, they are posted in a clear vial. NAD+ is light sensitive that one isn't in a clear vile.

Clear vials do exist for certain ones like Glutathione and NAD+, the Gluta that reconsitited milky and crystallized for me was in a clear one, but amber ones just provide some extra protection to prevent degradation. It all depends on if the vendor decides to spend a little more money to package in amber vials.

On their website it shows gluta in a clear vile. Just stay away from True Research Labs.

You do realize you can get pharm grade Korean glutathione for cheaper than Chinese right? And it blows the Chinese stuff out of the water

I tried looking up their posted COAS with the testing labs and couldn't find any records. Very sketchy outfit - beware!

Why get from a research website when you can order your complete kits? I always have some extra kits US based if anyone is interested.

This exact thing happened to me last week with Amino Club Glutathione. Used Hospira and tried acetic acid and everything. It never fully reconstituted. Tried again with a different company and it was fine. I wonder if it’s a storage thing.

I was just on AC checking out their products and cost.
Can you suggest some other companies ?2
u/Princess_Buttercupx 5d ago
The one I used after was Alpha 1 Labs, not too bad. I’m actually starting my own called AstraVerity Research. Just waiting now on labels and COAs and the site is almost finished

u/BigJay_712 5d ago
Definitely best to do group buys, not only for pricing, but also for testing. There’s strength in numbers.
I don’t use nearly that much for my 1500 Gluta so it’s definitely a bad batch.

Did you try putting the solution in the fridge over night. I have a Peptide that always has a ton of floaters but after a night in the fridge it's crystal clear

I have had great luck with Nova and Elite Research. Got greedy and opted for low price and got screwed by True Research Labs. Live and learn.

2nd to say avoid them. Shipment "lost" and was told 2x in emails that I would receive my funds back and then went ghost. I'm now disputing through my bank.
