Glutathione Treatment
Listen to what leading medical expert Mark Hyman, MD has to say about Glutathione.
Have you been feeling more tired, run down, coming down with colds or the flu, have a lack of energy, increased aches and pains that weren’t there a couple of years ago, or you’re unable to recuperate as quickly from exercise and physical activity as you once were?
Maybe it’s time to consider a natural substance that acts as a powerful antioxidant, an immune system booster, and a detoxifer…Glutathione! Glutathion can help your body repair damage caused by stress, pollution, radiation, infection, drugs, poor diet, aging, injury, trauma, and burns.
What is Glutathione? Glutathione is a small protein composed of three amino acids: cysteine, glutamic acid and glycine. It is involved in detoxification of the liver and the body. Glutathione to toxins, such as heavy metals, solvents, and pesticides, and transforms them into a form that can be excreted in urine or bile.
Glutathione is also an important antioxidant, counteracting the effects of free radicals produced in the body by oxidation reactions. In preliminary research,glutathione intake has been associated with protection against some forms of cancer. Glutathione has also inhibited cancer in test tube and animal studies. In preliminary research, higher glutathione levels have also been associated with good health in older adults.
Glutathione helps to defend the body against damage from:
* cigarette smoking
* exposure to radiation
* cancer chemotherapy
* toxins such as alcohol
* As a detoxifier of heavy metals and drugs, it aids in the treatment of blood and liver disorders
* Glutathione protects cells in several ways:
* Neutralizes oxygen molecules before they can harm cells.
* With selenium, it forms the enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which neutralizes hydrogen peroxide — one of the most aggressive and harmful free radicals produced by the oxidation reaction in cells.
* as a component of another antioxidant enzyme, glutathione S-transfers, which is a broad-spectrum liver-detoxifying enzyme.
* Glutathione also protects individual cells and the tissues of the arteries, brain, heart, immune cells, kidneys, lenses of the eyes, liver, lungs, and skin against oxidant damage.
Glutathione also:
* Plays a role in preventing cancer, especially liver cancer.
*Slow down the aging process

* Strengthen your immune system
* Fight Inflammation of organs & muscles
* Improve mental function & clarity
