GLUTATHIONE
Glutathione can be administered directly to the lungs to help reduce free radical damage...
Glutathione is a sulphur-based molecule made from three amino acids cysteine, glycine and glutamic acid. It is an important antioxidant in the liver’s detoxification pathways. Glutathione changes chemicals and metabolic byproducts into harmless substances for excretion from the body, by deactivating harmful free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that in their bid to become more stable must bump into healthy cells and cause damage.
Glutathione is responsible for detoxifying many compounds, including those found in cigarette smoke, alcohol, aspirin and acetaminophen. As an antioxidant in other parts of the body, glutathione protects red blood cells, helps immune cells kill invading microbes and stops cells from being harmed by radiation. Glutathione can be administered directly to the lungs to help reduce free radical damage in conditions such as chronic bronchitis, emphysema and asthma. Glutathione is recommended by natural health practitioners for conditions such as frequent colds and flus, hair loss, peptic ulcers, drug and alcohol overdose and decreased liver functioning.
Glutathione is available as an encapsulated powder. It must be in a reduced form in order to be metabolically active. Purchase only supplements that say “reduced” on the label. There is controversy surrounding the body’s ability to absorb glutathione in the intestinal tract. Some studies show that taking the precursors to glutathione (L-cysteine or N-acetylcysteine), L-methionine or DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) actually raises the body’s glutathione levels more than taking glutathione itself. Some practitioners can also administer glutathione as an inhalation for chronic respiratory disorders.
Natural foods that can help boost glutathione levels include: Asparagus, broccoli, avocado, brussel sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, peaches, watermelon, tomatoes, peas, spinach, and rice bran. Raw eggs, garlic, and fresh unprocessed meats contain sulphur-containing amino acids that help to maintain optimal glutathione levels. There are certain spices known to help boost levels as well such as: cinnamon, cardamom and curcumin found in turmeric.
Glutathione administration may cause allergic reactions. There are no known drug interactions or toxicities associated with glutathione use.
