WHAT IS GLUTATHIONE?

Glutathione is a naturalcompound found in the human body made from 3 amino acids: Cysteine,Glutamine and Glycine. Cysteine is one of the amino acids for thesynthesis of Glutathione, which is very critical in detoxification.Cysteine has mucolytic properties, and is a powerful antioxidant anddetoxifier. Glycine, part of the thiol group, which serves as areducing agent to prevent oxidation of tissues. Glutathione is normallyproduced by the body in response to todays environment such aspollution from the air we breathe, the water we drink, chemicals andpesticides in the food we eat that causes damages in our cells andcirculatory system. It has been widely heralded for its importance inimproving health and long life. Glutathione in increased doses has alsobeen found to have the beneficial side effect of

WHITENING THE SKIN.

WHAT ARE THE USES OF GLUTATHIONE?

- metabolize carbohydrates

- aid in the oxidation of fats

- prevent cells oxidation

- protect red and white blood cells

- build healthy immune response

- protect the system against oxidative damage

- slow ageing and improve skin condition.

THE DIETARY SUPPLEMEMENT IS ALSO KNOWN

TO BENEFIT THE FOLLOWING:

- people who smoke

- people undergoing chemotherapy

- people with low sperm count

- people with liver problems

- people who drink alcohol

- people who work out regularly/body builders

- people with weak immune systems

- people who are regularly exposed to chemicals/pesticides

- people who wish to have fairer & whiter skin

Anti-oxidant- It is a powerful anti-oxidant that protects the body by targeting anddestroying reactive oxygen molecules and free radicals. It is found inhigh concentrations in the liver, where it binds to heavy metals suchas mercury and lead, chemical pollutants, and carcinogens andtransforms them into a form that can be easily flushed out of the bodyvia enzymatic pathways.

Immune System Booster -Immune Depressed individuals have lower Glutathione (GSH) levels whenfighting disease. Lymphocytes, cells vital for your immune response,depend on GSH for their proper function and replication. Cellulardepletion of Glutathione has been implicated as a causative orcontributory factor in many pathologies including Parkinson's,Alzheimer's, cataracts, arteriosclerosis, cystic fibrosis,malnutrition, aging, AIDS and cancer. In addition, Glutathione isessential in

supporting the immune system, including natural killer cells and in the maintenance of T-lymphocytes

Detoxifier- Glutathione detoxifies many pollutants, carcinogens and poisons,including many in fuel exhaust and cigarette smoke. It retards damagefrom radiation such as seen with loss of the ozone. The liver is themain detoxification organ of the body. In the liver we find very highconcentrations of Glutathione, as it is a major factor in numerousbiochemical detoxification pathways. Numerous studies have demonstratedthat patients with

compromised liver function due to alcohol abuse have significant reduction of Glutathione in the liver.
