MAX INTERBATINAL

HOW ARE WE DIFFERENT?

Max International is dedicated to improving everyday lives. This commitment can be seen in everything we do, from our superior products to the charity events we organize around the world. This isn’t some newfound mission; it’s been our focus from Day 1.

Thanks to the efforts of medicinal chemist Dr. Herbert T. Nagasawa and other experts in scientific research and development, Max International has developed groundbreaking advances in glutathione enhancing products.

When our founder, Steven Scott, began developing world-class solutions to the ongoing health crises we all face, he started by tapping leading scientists and employees. Our team is committed to safe and effective products that supplement glutathione, the body’s master antioxidant and a vital protector against free radicals. This dedication has earned Max a U.S. patent for RiboCeine™ one of the core components to a variety of our products. We invite you to learn more about our Executive Team, who help guide and drive our initiatives.

Our Science

Max is committed to producing and delivering the best possible glutathione enhancing products in the world. We know how important it is that high quality health and wellness products be based on proven scientific research. Max International is determined to lead the wellness and nutritional industry in delivering quality products based on science and science-based proprietary formulations.

Most companies start with a motive for profit, ours started with the purpose of empowerment.

Thanks to the efforts of medicinal chemist Dr. Herbert T. Nagasawa and other experts in scientific research and development, Max International has developed groundbreaking advances in glutathione enhancing products.

Glutathione

Your Health and Wellness are Under Attack

Every day our bodies are challenged by stress, poor diet, lack of sleep and physical exertion. These issues can negatively affect our health and wellness. To help combat these effects, our bodies produce a molecule called glutathione (GSH). 

Glutathione is Fundamental to Our Physical Well-being

Glutathione is the primary protector of our cells. It recycles and helps restore other anti-oxidants, earning it the title of Master Antioxidant. It is the first line of defense against our cells’ most violent attackers, namely free radicals, chemical toxins, radiation and heavy metals that enter our bodies through the environment and the foods and liquids we consume. As the subject of over 100,000 peer-reviewed studies cited in PubMed.com, the importance of glutathione cannot be understated.

Our Glutathione Levels are Decreasing

Unfortunately, our glutathione levels are depleted as we age. The older we get, the harder it is to maintain optimum glutathione levels. This means our cells don’t work as well and our overall health and wellness pay the price.

Restore Your Body’s Glutathione Production by Supplementation

Our bodies don’t have to fight on their own. Certain vitamins and nutrients have been shown to assist in glutathione function and production. The key is finding ways to effectively support our bodies’ glutathione levels. Unfortunately, we can’t just take glutathione; we need to find ways to help our bodies produce it naturally. Max’s proprietary RiboCeine™ technology is the solution for effective supplementation for optimal glutathione production.

RiboCeine™

Max’s Answer to Supplementation for Effective Glutathione Production

Because glutathione (GSH) is the primary protector and detoxifier of the cell, scientists and medical professionals have looked for ways to effectively raise and support glutathione levels for years. However, glutathione cannot be effectively absorbed through the intestinal tract; so it must be made by the body itself. 

The body makes (synthesizes) glutathione from three amino acids: cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid. While glycine and glutamic acid are readily available within the body, cysteine is more difficult to make and much must be supplemented through diet. 

Until recently, N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) was the only dietary supplement available to enhance the body's supply of cysteine to promote the production of glutathione. Now, Max International is proud to present RiboCeine, a critical breakthrough in cysteine supplementation for optimal glutathione production.

RiboCeine is Proven and Patented Technology

RiboCeine is a unique molecule that combines ribose and cysteine, nutrients that are naturally occurring in humans, to more effectively deliver cysteine directly to our cells. This groundbreaking compound enters the bloodstream and delivers cysteine, as well as ribose, to the cells to stimulate the production of glutathione, the body's master antioxidant, as well as ATP, our cells’ natural fuel and source of energy.

RiboCeine has significantly outperformed other means of glutathione enhancement against which it has been tested, and has been the subject of twenty published, peer-reviewed scientific studies that were funded by the National Institutes of Health and other scientific funding agencies. RiboCeine was developed over years of research by the well-known research scientist and medicinal chemist, Herbert T. Nagasawa, Ph.D., and this technology is now patented in the United States.
