Glutathione

First, here is how to buy the best glutathione supplement in history – Original Glutathione Formula (OGF) invented by the late Dr Keller. Why is it the best? Because it has the ingredients that can enter our cells UNLIKE glutathione molecules. Here is your link to use that will also give you a lower price than you can find elsewhere – https://robkellermd.com/CPS/RKMD-47770.html

2nd, here is Dr. Katz talking about glutathione with Dr. Oz -Dr. Katz web is here – https://davidkatzmd.com/

 

 

 

The Significance of Glutathione

Glutathione is a naturally produced enzyme that is the most effective natural antioxidant. Increased levels of glutathione greatly reduces aging and the progression of age-related disease.

Glutathione has more than 98,000 studies recorded – Among the findings are that people with high levels of glutathione have increased energy, healthy sleep patterns and improved immune systems, improved mental clarity, and they are found to live longer lives.

How Glutathione Improves Health

Scientists have counted over 80,000 foreign chemicals in the foods people ingest and the air that is breathed. Without glutathione all of these toxins can enter the body’s cells and play havoc with their health.

Some of the most dangerous of the toxins that can enter the body are heavy metals. Fortunately, glutathione removes heavy metals from the body’s cells through a process called chelation.

Toxins break down mitochondrial DNA within the cells. This causes rapid aging and premature cellular death. Glutathione creates a protective barrier that increases the strength of mitochondrial DNA. Glutathione also protects the nucleus of the body’s cells.

Glutathione eliminates free radicals and their damage.

Glutathione Levels Drop With Age

Scientists have found that our body’s glutathione levels drop 1 % every year after 20 years old. This can only be counteracted by taking more glutathione every year.

Glutathione molecules cannot enter our cells

They are too large. So ingestion of off the shelf glutathione supplements cannot increase the levels in the cells.

Dr Rob Keller worked his whole life to perfect a mixture that WILL enter our cells and allow the cells to make glutathione again. That mixture is his Original Glutathione Formula, OGF. It has the 3 most important “precursors” in it –

More about Glutathione

Glutathione peroxidase (GSH) is your body’s most abundant natural antioxidant. GSH protects your vision, boosts your immune system, helps turn carbohydrates into energy, and prevents the buildup of oxidized fats that may contribute to atherosclerosis.

Glutathione is a compound classified as a tripeptide made of three amino acids: cysteine, glutamic acid, and glycine. Glutathione is found in every part of the body, especially the lungs, intestinal tract, and liver. The body produces and stores the largest amounts of GSH in the liver, where it is used to detoxify harmful compounds so that they can be removed from the body through the bile. The liver also supplies GSH directly to red and white blood cells in the bloodstream; it helps keep red blood and white blood cells healthy to maximize the disease-fighting power of the immune system. Glutathione appears to have an anti-aging affect on the body. GSH levels decline with age, and a lack of glutathione has been shown to leave the body more vulnerable to damage by free radicals, thus speeding up oxidation (wearing down) of the body.

A glutathione deficiency can have a devastating effect on the nervous system, causing such symptoms as lack of balance and coordination, mental disorders, and tremors. Any illness (even a bad cold), chronic disorders such as asthma and rheumatoid arthritis, injury, or heavy exposure to pollutants can cause a GSH deficiency. This is because your body uses more GSH when it is supporting white blood cells and ridding the body of toxins.

Glutathione is found in almost all fruits and vegetables. Acorn squash, asparagus, avocado, cantaloupe, grapefruit, okra, orange, peach, potato, spinach, strawberries, tomato, watermelon, and zucchini are all good sources of GSH. Some vegetables, such as broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, kale, and parsley, not only provide GSH, but also actually stimulate the body produce more of this powerful antioxidant. Cooking destroys a lot of the glutathione in fresh fruits and vegetables, so you can get the most GSH from these foods by eating them raw or steamed. Eating foods high in glutamine, such as lean meats, eggs, wheat germ, and whole grains, can also stimulate the liver to produce more GSH.

There is no Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for GSH, but supplements have no known harmful side effects. Glutathione supplements can be expensive, but there is some question about the body’s ability to absorb GSH efficiently in supplemental form. If you want to take GSH supplements, just make sure to take them with meals to maximize absorption.

Another, and some say better, way to raise glutathione levels is to take cysteine, glutamic acid, and glycine, the raw materials it uses to make this compound. The N-acetyl form of cysteine (NAC) is easily absorbed by the body.

Fish oil, riboflavin (vitamin B2), vitamin C, and selenium also encourage the production and absorption of GSH. In fact, without selenium the body cannot produce glutathione. Make sure you are getting plenty of these nutrients to help keep your body healthy and strong at any age.

People With Higher Glutathione Levels:

  • Have More Energy
  • Recover Faster From Exercise
  • Sleep Better
  • Have Greater Mental Clarity and Focus
  • Less Inflammation
  • Improved Joint Function
  • Have Better Immune Systems
  • Live Longer
  • Live Better
  • Improve the Health and Function of Every Cell, Tissue and Organ in the Body.

Glutathione Is Your Body’s Master Antioxidant 

It is considered the master antioxidant due to its unique multifunctional characteristics as well as it’s unprecedented ability to neutralize many types of free radicals that assault the cell. It is the only antioxidant that recycles itself again and again to continue fighting free radicals. 

It is The Primary Detoxifier of the Cell 
Today we are confronted by over 80,000 chemicals in the air we breathe, the food and water we ingest, and the materials we touch and handle. Many of these toxic chemicals enter our cells and must be eliminated to protect the cell and maintain optimum function. Glutathione is the cell’s first line of defense against chemicals and toxins and the primary detoxifier that can eliminate many of these toxins when it is present in optimal amounts. 

It is A Powerful Chelator of Heavy Metals 
Heavy metals enter our cells in the same manner as chemical toxins. Fortunately, they can be removed from the cell by a process of chelation, and Glutathione is one of the cell’s most powerful chelating agents. 

It is The Protector of the Immune Cell 
Our immune cells are designed to protect us, but what protects the immune cell? Glutathione is the protector of the immune cell and allows newly formed immune cells to proliferate to attack germs and viruses. 

It is The Protector of Mitochondrial DNA 
The breakdown of the mitochondrial DNA accelerates aging and increases cell death. Glutathione is the protector of the Mitochondrial DNA, and the lower the glutathione level, the more vulnerable this DNA becomes to breakage. 

It is The Protector of the Nucleus of the Cell 
The nucleus of the cell regulates all cell activity and protecting it is critical to the health of the cell and its optimal function. When present in abundance, glutathione gives the nucleus the protection it needs. 

It Reduces Oxidative Stress 
Oxidative Stress is the most aggressive destructive force that assaults the cell. Cells manufacture a number of antioxidants to counter oxidative stress. Glutathione plays a primary role in neutralizing many different types of free radicals. 

It Reduces Intercellular Inflammation 
Inflammation is the mortal enemy to the tissues, organs and various systems of the body. All inflammation begins at a cellular level, and low glutathione levels are associated with inflammation. 

It is The Re-Utilizing Agent of Ingested Antioxidants 
Antioxidants that are ingested (not manufactured by the body such as vitamin C and E) once spent, cannot be re-utilized by the cell unless they are first converted into a usable state. Glutathione is the agent that converts those antioxidants into a state that can be utilized by the cell. 

It is the Reducing Agent for Hemoglobin, Allowing it to Transport Oxygen to Every Cell. 
The purpose of hemoglobin is to carry oxygen to all living cells. However, when it is oxidized, it cannot carry an oxygen molecule and must first be reduced to an acceptable state. Glutathione protects hemoglobin from oxidizing agents and can also make this possible. 

PROBLEM-Your Glutathione Levels are Decreasing, But the Attacks on Your Cells are Not!

The continued exposure to toxins, free radicals, radiation, and heavy metals can lower our levels of glutathione. This continued exposure causes cells to lose their optimum function. As the cells are damaged, the aging process and all of its issues accelerate. Energy levels fall, inflammation levels increase and all of the cells, tissues and organs pay the price. On top of this, injuries, infections and diseases further deplete glutathione levels.
