Why Is It Important for You to Increase Your Glutathione If You Are Ill Or For Prevention?

by 

What is Glutathione

Glutathione, or GSH, is an important substance which the body produces and which every cell in the body contains. It has been called the body’s “Master Antioxidant” because it helps the body fight cancer, combat diabetes, prevent arteriosclerosis (leading to stroke and heart attacks), prevent aging, detoxify, and repair general body damage caused by factors from stress to radiation.

In this blog we look at four diseases and how glutathione helps reduce or minimize their signs and symptoms.

GSH and Diabetes

Diabetics are vulnerable to infections of the skin and the bloodstream because of their compromised immune systems. Resulting infections pose serious life threatening complications. Impaired blood circulation causes diabetics a host of problems, some of which can lead to amputations and death.

High glutathione levels in the body bolster a diabetic’s immune system which fights off infection. GSH helps decrease the collecting of platelets in artery walls, resulting in freer blood flow and circulation. This improved circulation helps prevent heart disease, stroke, kidney, retinal, and nerve damages.

GSH and Cholesterol

LDL, or “bad” cholesterol, is a fatty substance that leads to accumulation of plaques on the inner wall of arteries. Oxidation of fat in the blood stream causes more thickening.

Glutathione in elevated levels may contain high amounts of lactoferrin, which is a protein that prevents LDL-cholesterol oxidation. It also reduces cholesterol by promoting the functioning of an enzyme called cholesterol hydroxylase.

GSH and Arteriosclerosis

Heart disease and stroke result from thickening of arterial walls that constricts blood flow. The thickening is a disease called arteriosclerosis. In addition to heart disease and stroke, arteriosclerosis leads to high blood pressure and kidney failure.

Glutathione is an antioxidant that occurs naturally in our cells. As such, it fights arteriosclerosis by decreasing LDL (“bad”) cholesterol, protecting the inner lining of arteries, reducing inflammation, and reducing the formation of white blood cells that stick to platelets and thicken artery walls.

GSH and Cancer

Glutathione promotes the cancer-killing activity of T cells and NK cells. It also promotes the activity and presence of lymphocytes which combat cancer cell growth.

Immunocal: Your GSH Source

How does a person boost his or her glutathione levels? By eating a diet rich in fresh fruits and vegetables, and by taking a GSH supplement.

Glutathione supplements are available in various forms, including pills, creams, and injections. We believe that Immunocal is the best glutathione supplement on the market today.

Immunocal is a proven glutathione augmentation supplement. It is not glutathione itself; it’s a “precursor.”  This means it’s a substance that contains the building blocks that the body uses to make glutathione.

Immunocal is an undenatured whey protein isolate. It makes available a substance called cysteine, which is an amino acid that is critical in the production and activity of glutathione.

Immunocal is not difficult to take. It is a powder, packaged in sachets, that should be mixed with water or juice. It’s a product that is safe for everyone, although people who are undergoing immunosuppressive therapies should discuss it with their doctor before taking it.

Empowered Physicians Lead to Caring Medical Practices!

by

RMToussaintMDHow do We Move Toward A More Caring HealthCare System?

I believe now that the morale of physicians needs improvement.  The public confidence in medical doctors and in the medical system is low. Too many people are looking to other so-called ‘physicians’ for their healthcare needs. The business of medicine is partly responsible for these. The American Public needs more caring medical doctors to help them and to redirect the medical system.

I sense that the status of the medical profession and the healthcare system is a bit worse than the results from this research analysis, 2014 Survey of America’s Physicians: Practice Patterns and Perspectives

Stress management, caring mentorship, spiritual practice, meditation and other changes are needed for improvement of the entire healthcare system. I am available to offer workshops and seminars to help empower medical doctors and medical students in Maui.

Glutathione’s Antioxidant Benefits

Does Glutathione Have Antioxidant Benefits And Does it Improve Muscular Performance?
RoseMarie Toussaint, MD

Glutathione, or GSH (pronounced “gloota-thigh-own) is the secret to prevent aging, cancer, heart disease, dementia and almost every other illnesses that we may encounter. As we age, GSH level decreases and low levels are found in essentially every illness studied. Thus, optimal GSH level prevents and treats every illness including aging.

There are more than 112,000 medical articles about GSH which is our body’s master antioxidant, the master detoxifier and driving force of your immune system. Our body produces its own GSH, which is significantly and statistically increased when one takes Immunocal, a cysteine delivery system.

As we know now, nutrient-depleted chemically processed foods are unhealthy and deplete GSH. Pollution, toxins, medications, stress, trauma, aging, infections, and radiation also deplete our GSH. This leaves us susceptible to cell disintegration from oxidative stress and free radicals, which makes us more susceptible to infections and cancer.

As we age and or become sick our GSH decreases resulting in an overload and damaged liver, making it unable to do its job of detoxification. Even if we eat the best organic and raw diet, the precursors of GSH in vegetables and fruits do not significantly increase GSH levels to maintain our fitness as we age. This is unless we are eating close to or more 20 pounds of raw vegetables juicing per day with specialized, expensive and time consuming juicing extraction.

In 1999, Lands et al concluded his study was the first to demonstrate that prolonged supplementation with a product designed to augment antioxidant defenses resulted in improved volitional performance[3]. Dr Lands performed a double blind placebo controlled study documenting a 35 % increase in GSH levels and 13 % increase in muscle strength and performance.

In another study, Dr Bounous reported that GSH is essential to aerobic muscular contraction and depletion of GSH is a common consequence of increased formation of reactive oxygen species during increased cellular activities in muscular cells during strenuous exercise.

Medved et al, studied the effects of the antioxidant compound N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on muscle cysteine, cystine, and glutathione. This study was done in well-trained athletes. It was found that NAC prolonged the time to fatigue during prolonged, submaximal exercise in endurance athletes. Thus NAC improved performance in well-trained individuals, with enhanced muscle cysteine. GSH availability was felt to be the likely mechanism.

In several clinical trials, Dröge reported that cysteine supplementation improved skeletal muscle functions. NAC has a very short half life and has a few unpleasant side effects and with an unpleasant odor. Info on Immunocal is listed here.

Sundell et al, documented that whey protein and creatine seem to have positive effects on muscle size, strength and athletic performance without major adverse effects and high costs.

Some studies also suggest that whey may enhance recovery from heavy exercise and possibly decrease muscle damage and soreness.

Cribb et al, reported that whey protein and/or creatine monohydrate seem to promote greater strength gains and muscle morphology during Resistance Exercise training.

ConsumerLab offered “the Athletic Banned Substances Screening Program to test dietary supplements, performance enhancement products, and other nutrition products for substances that could cause disqualification of athletes from Olympic and other competition”.

The ConsumerLab screening program included “testing for banned substances, including stimulants, narcotics, anabolic agents, diuretics, masking agents, and beta-blockers based on the Olympic Movement Anti-Doping Code or the codes of other sports associations”. Immunocal passed the Athletic Banned Substance Screening Program from the ConsumerLab.

In December of 2013, Immunotec became an official sponsor and supplier of sport performance nutritional supplements to the Rowing Canada Aviron’s [RCA’s] National Team athletes as they strive toward podium performance in Rio in 2016. RCA, is a non-profit organization recognized by the Canadian Government and the Canadian Olympic Committee as the national governing body for the sport of rowing in Canada.

“Optimizing recovery, performance and wellness in our athletes is crucial in their achieving international success and Immunotec’s supplements play an important role toward this objective for many of our high performance athletes,” said RCA nutritionist, Susan Boegman.

The Role of Glutathione in Cancer Prevention and Treatment

by

Glutathione plays an active role in cancer prevention and treatment. Dr Montaigner, an expert on the negative medical effects of oxidative stress, in his book[i], discusses the various medical benefits of GSH, in cancers, AIDS and neurodegenerative diseases.

On Chapter 42 of Dr. Montaigner’s book, dietary whey protein, a proven source of GSH was reported to prevent the initiation of cancer[ii] as well as prevent tumor progression[iii].

Glutathione

Dr. Luc Montagnier was the winner of the 2008 Nobel
Prize in Medicine for his co-discovery of the HIV virus with Francoise Barre-Sinoussi in 1983. He is also the
co-founder of the World Foundation for AIDS Research and Prevention. Dr Bounous summarized this paper by stating that the antitumor effect of this dietary whey protein may be due to the increased GSH levels in normal cells[iv],[v].

Clinical studies by Dr Tozer documented that dietary whey protein, patients with cancer of the lungs had a mean increase of 2.5% body weight while casein-treated patients lost 2.6% (P=0.049) [vi]. Also noted was an increase in survival, hand grip force and quality of life[vii].

Increase in body weight in children with cancer treated with this dietary whey protein, was also reported by Paul et al.[viii]

Dr Kelly reported that in preliminary studies, antioxidant status may affect chemotherapy tolerance in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia[ix].

This dietary whey protein, a proven source of GSH, may help to reduce gastrointestinal toxicities of chemotherapy and radiation[x]

Dr Tsai studied a potential anticancer drug, called baicalein, reporting that a dietary whey protein enhanced the cytotoxicity of baicalein by inducing more cancer cell death[xi].

Kennedy in 1995 documented that this dietary whey protein, made cancer cells more vulnerable to chemotherapy[xii].

In his research paper, Dr Baruchel reported that dietary whey protein concentrate inhibited the growth of breast cancer cells[xiii].

Papenburgh and his colleagues documented that this dietary whey protein, inhibited the development as well as the progression of cancer cells[xiv] in urogenital cancers[xv], in prostate cancer by Dr Bounous[xvi].

This dietary whey protein is a clinically proven efficacious source of GSH. Other info on it is listed here[xvii]. This natural supplement is antiviral which may be related to its glutathione promoting activity[xviii].

A Method-of-Use Patent means that a product is guaranteed to do what it claims to do. The Weigh Protein Concentrate has a special patent issued by the US Patent Office entitled “Anti-cancer therapeutic compositions containing whey protein concentrate”[xix]
