22 March The Benefits Of Glutathione
With IV Nutritional therapy arriving at River Aesthetics, learn about the benefits of this powerful antioxidant- glutathione
THE IMPORTANCE OF GLUTATHIONE.
Glutathione is critical for one reason: It recycles ANTIOXIDANTS. However problems occur when we are overwhelmed by too much oxidative stress or too many toxins. Then levels of glutathione drop and we can no longer protect ourselves against free radicals, infections or cancer and we can’t get rid of toxins. This leads to further sickness and soon we are in a downward spiral chronic sickness.
So Glutathione is critical in helping our immune system to do its job of fighting infections and preventing cancer.
Glutathione is also the most critical and integral part of our detoxification system.
Glutathione helps us reach peak mental and physical function. Research has shown that raised Glutathione levels decrease muscle damage, reduce recovery time, increase strength and endurance n shift metabolism from fat production to muscle development.
IF YOU ARE SICK OR OLD OR JUST NOT IN PEAK SHAPE YOU ARE LIKELY TO HAVE A GLUTATHIONE DEFICIENCY.
The Lancet found the highest Glutathione levels in healthy young people, lower levels in healthy elderly, lower still in sick elderly and the lowest of all in the hospitalized elderly.
Keeping yourself healthy, boosting your performance, preventing disease and ageing well depends on keeping your Glutathione levels high.
CLINICALLY PROVEN
Glutathione has been clinically researched and proven to optimize your immune system, maximize the function of antioxidants, support your detoxification process at the cellular level, increase your energy levels and increase your strength and endurance.
Optimising your Glutathione levels benefits everyone, from children to those in their golden years, from the infirm to the elite athlete. Glutathione has been clinically proven to be beneficial for people affected with Asthma, all CANCERS, chronic fatigue syndrome, diabetes, autoimmune disorders, diseases of liver, kidneys, heart and digestive system, flu,fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, trauma, skin disorders and many more.
SO RAISING YOUR GLUTATHIONE LEVEL is clinically proven to be beneficial for a wide array of health concerns.
WHAT DOES GLUTATHIONE DO IN OUR BODIES?
- ANTIOXIDANT
- DETOXIFICATION
- ENHANCES OUR IMMUNE SYSTEM
- INCREASES ENERGY LEVELS
- REPAIR DNA DAMAGE
Antioxidant
GSH is the body’s master antioxidant, our body’s depend on it for the removal of toxins and GSH is at the heart of all immune functions.
Other antioxidants in our body depend on GSH to function properly.
Detoxification
GSH detoxifies a large number of pollutants by binding to carcinogens, heavy metals, herbicides, pesticides, and radiation by forming a soluble compound with the toxin that can then be excreted
Immune system
Heathy growth and activity of immune cells depend on the availability of GSH. The protective activity of GSH is twofold- it enhances the activity of immune cells and also functions as an antioxidant within them.
Increased energy
Our energy levels are a result of many factors everything from biochemical reactions taking place within our cells, to muscle function and even your sense of wellbeing. GSH enables the mitochondria (the cells ‘power houses; to remain fully charged, enhancing muscle strength and endurance.
Repair
Our body is constantly under attack from free radicals, some from external sources and some generated in our own body. Free radical attack the nearest stable molecule ‘stealing’ its electron. A molecule that loses an electron then becomes a free radical itself and attacks the next nearest stable molecule, this begins a chain reaction. Once a reaction is started it can cascade through hundreds of molecules. As this occurs over and over again the cell eventually die or mutates. Sometimes the mutated cell mutates to a point that we know as cancer. GSH performs a vital role in repairing the damaged DNA by replacing the missing electron. Normal to elevated GSH keeps the repair of your cells at a maximum and reduces the number of cell mutations that would occur otherwise.
