glutathione daily supplement

Glutathione has many roles in the body, and key factors such as cell and mitochondrial functions in the body are inseparable from it.

1. Eliminate free radicals and reduce oxidative stress

2. Reduce inflammation and improve immune function

3. Detoxification (exogenous and endogenous toxins)

4. Maintain mitochondrial function

5. Regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis

6. Recycle VC and VE

7. Ensure correct expression of genes and proteins

Many common modern diseases are more or less related to excessive consumption of glutathione:

1. Neuropathy (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, etc.)

2. Lung diseases (asthma, acute respiratory distress syndrome, etc.)

3. Immune system diseases (AIDS, autoimmune diseases)

4. Cardiovascular disease (hypertension, myocardial infarction, cholesterol oxidation)

5. Chronic age-related diseases (cataracts, macular degeneration, hearing impairment and glaucoma)

6. Liver disease

7. Cystic Fibrosis

8. Diabetes

How to supplement glutathione in daily diet?

1. Eat foods rich in sulfur and supplement glutathione raw materials

Sulfur is an important raw material for the synthesis of glutathione, which can promote the body to synthesize more glutathione.

Sulfur mainly comes from protein-rich foods such as beef, poultry and fish.

Many studies have found that eating foods rich in sulfur can supplement glutathione, thereby reducing oxidative stress.

In addition, shallots, garlic, and onions also increase glutathione levels, possibly related to their sulfur-containing compounds.

2. Supplement alpha-lipoic acid

Alpha-lipoic acid is a powerful antioxidant produced by cells that reduces glutathione workload and increases mitochondrial glutathione levels.

Foods rich in caprylic sulfate include beef and other red meats, animal organs (especially liver), yeast, kale, broccoli, tomatoes, etc.

3. Eat foods rich in selenium

Selenium is an essential mineral, and selenium is a trace mineral, which is an important part of antioxidant enzymes. Eating more selenium-containing foods can increase glutathione levels.

Food sources rich in selenium include oysters and other seafood, eggs, animal offal, Brazil nuts, fish, beef, chicken, sunflower seeds, etc.

Not much glutathione is found in natural foods, and the cooking process can reduce glutathione levels by 30 to 60 percent.
