How to Boost Your Master Antioxidant

By this time if you have been reading my blogs you know that we live in a very toxic world. We could eat the perfect diet and exercise and we would still need help on a day to day basis to remove these toxins. Every toxic material that comes into our body needs to be neutralized and removed from the body safely and effectively. So today we are talking about glutathione our master antioxidant that can turn blueberries and red wine on their head. We are going to explore glutathione’s benefits, supplements, how to increase glutathione naturally, and forms to avoid.

Benefits:

Reducing oxidative stress.

  • Glutathione will sweep through the body and quench any radical oxygen molecules that are going to damage your cells.
  • Oxidative stress is a big cause of aging and, in fact, taking glutathione is a great way to way to have an anti-aging effect in the body.
  • Glutathione even protects our very DNA from oxidative stress by replacing the missing electron in a mutated DNA structure.

Amino acid transporter

  • Glutathione will help aid the cells to transport nutrients like amino acids in and out of the cell.
  • Cells will be more nourished and function at a higher level when taking glutathione.
  • Glutathione also helps us break down proteins and properly use them in the body

Enzyme catalysis

  • Due to its sulfide bonds, glutathione helps increase cellular enzyme activity in the body.
  • Enzymes are crucial in every function of the body from digestion to DNA repair.

Metabolizer of Toxins, Carcinogens, Xenobiotics, and Heavy Metals

  • Glutathione boosts the liver and makes the toxins that pass through water soluble. This makes it a breeze for your elimination system to get rid of them.
  • Glutathione can even change the carcinogens that cause cancer in the body to an unreactive form that can be eliminated from the body.
  • Due to its sticky nature, glutathione has the ability to stick to heavy metals and gently eliminate them through the body.

This list would take up the entire blog because glutathione is so amazing. I will make a part 2 to this blog that will come out soon, and we will explore more of the amazing benefits of this miraculous substance.

Supplements:

There are many types of glutathione supplements, and we will explore the top three starting with the one I like the most.

Lypospheric glutathione is a version that will not get destroyed in the digestive system and is an alternative choice to expensive injectable forms.

Glutathione cream is a great way to get this substance in the body and bypass the digestive system as well.

Glutathione in its reduced form from a good supplement company has benefits but not as absorbable as the forms mentioned above.

Avoid any form that is not in a reduced state and comes from a non-reputable company and if you have questions please contact us via Facebook or call our office.

Naturally Increase Glutathione:

  • Since the body makes its own glutathione it’s important to do high-intensity interval exercise.
  • Taking a high-quality whey protein.
  • Raw milk and raw eggs.
  • Red meat and organ meats.
  • Taking and a high-quality turmeric supplement.
  • Reducing stress.

Conclusion:

I hope I have inspired you to give glutathione a try. As you can see the benefits are limitless. Stay tuned for the next blog where we will be exploring the many benefits of vitamin c.
