Glutathione is the body's strongest anti-oxidant
Our most aggressive Glutathione treatment combines Glutathione, Vitamin C and Alpha Lipoic Acid - this has been called the "Snow White" by some. Glutathione and Vitamin C treatment starts at $145. Glutathione and Skin HealthGlutathione is reputed to enhance skin complexion and tone with repeated administration. The skin lightening properties of Glutathione include stimulation of lighter pheomelanin pigment synthesis rather than darker eumelanin. We've observed an enhanced effect when Glutathione is taken daily at home. In a 2012 study, 60 medical students were given either Glutathione or placebo for 4 weeks. The melanin indices decreased consistently at all six sites in subjects who received Glutathione indicating a lightening of the skin. In a 2017 study female subjects were in three groups and took two forms of Glutathione or placebo for 12 weeks. In the Glutathione groups, melanin index (indicating lighter skin) and skin wrinkles reduced while elasticity increased. Glutathione and Brain HealthGlutathione plays crucial roles in the antioxidant defense system and the maintenance of oxidative homeostasis in neurons.
GSH depletion in the brain is a common finding in patients with neurodegenerative diseases.
In the landmark study of Glutathione and its use in Parkinson's, 600mg of Glutathione was given twice daily for 30 days in nine patients with early, untreated Parkinson's disease.
The Glutathione therapy had no adverse effect on blood chemistries, liver function tests, blood counts.
Although the total daily Glutathione was 1200mg, this study in our opinion demonstrates that repetitive, daily moderate dose once again does not affect liver function tests adversely.
Aside from the safety, all patients improved significantly after Glutathione, with a 42% decline in disability.
Once Glutathione therapy was stopped the therapeutic effect lasted for 2-4 months.
NAD has published data in a Parkinson's case report which can easily be added to a Glutathione.
Glutathione and Liver HealthGlutathione is present in all mammalian tissues, but is most highly concentrated in the liver.
In one Italian study, looking at chronic fatty liver disease (of various origins) administration of high dose Glutathione.
Glutathione treatment significantly improves liver function tests such as bilirubin, AST, ALT, GGT "even several months after treatment interruption."
Glutathione FAQHow many treatments do I need?It depends on what you are using Glutathione for. For instance, for treating MS relapses we often recommend Glutathione Therapy of 2-6 grams, every other day for 5-7 treatments. This is based off of the experience of Dr. Muradov. For skin health, at our Naturopath Clinic, we usually administer 2 - 4 grams of Glutathione, 1-2x weekly for 4-12 weeks, usually with 5-10grams of Vitamin C. What can Glutathione be used for?Most commonly we use Glutathione treatment for MS, Skin Health and Parkinson's. We can also use Glutathione therapy for ALS, Lyme Disease, Parkinson's, Neuropathy (diabetic, chemotherapy induced), Anti-Aging, Detoxification and others. Are they any side-effects?Surprisingly, not really. Reviewing the available literature - no adverse hepatic, or renal effects have been published. Glutathione BiochemistryAccumulating lines of evidence indicate that Glutathione function is implicated in some neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, Huntington’s disease, and Multiple Sclerosis. Glutathione is produced from three amino acids—glutamate, cysteine and glycine Glutathione is distributed throughout the human body. The highest levels are found in the liver, followed by the kidney, spleen, small intestine, brain, pancreas, lung, heart, and muscle. Glutathione does not reach the brain directly because of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), it can penetrate the BBB only by the mechanism of passive diffusion. Interested in Glutathione?Get in Touch
