Glutathione for Protection Against Environmental Health Threats

As I noted in a recent article, chemosensitivity, radiofrequency sensitivity, Lyme Disease, and other multisystemic chronic conditions all have in common oxidative stress and the formation of free radicals in the body.

Oxidative stress leads to mitochondrial damage, cancer, Alzheimer’s, Type 2 diabetes, aging, and more.

Nutrients such as vitamins C, E, and alpha lipoic acid are powerful antioxidants, but they are destabilized after fulfilling their antioxidant functions.

Glutathione restabilizes these nutrients – glutathione is the body’s master antioxidant. It is protective of immune cells, aids detoxification in the liver, slows aging, and allows the body to rebuild and repair.

For these and other reasons, we offer Glutathione IVs in our office, often after a Myer’s Cocktail but also by itself.

Patients report increased sensory awareness and feeling refreshed after a glutathione IV. Intravenous Glutathione is our most powerful way to introduce glutathione into the body, though we also use oral liposomal glutathione (available in our office) and oral N Acetyl Cysteine (NAC), which is a precursor to glutathione.
