Optimizing Glutathione for Health and Human Performance
Many of us, have thought of ways to improve our health in this New Year. Perhaps you have kicked off a new fitness regime or have started a new diet plan. As we begin the Journey to better health, I want to bring attention to a molecule called glutathione and its implications for health and human performance.
Glutathione is one of the most powerful antioxidants responsible for maintaining cellular health. It is found in all cells, but is highly concentrated in the brain and liver. Glutathione is a chief biomarker of cellular redox status (electron allocation), meaning it can accept electrons from free radical species. Less glutathione increases the cell's vulnerability to oxidative damage. It is good that our body naturally produces glutathione, however many have less than optimal glutathione levels due to stress, infection, poor diet, lack of sleep, and exposure to toxins and xenobiotics (statins, hormonal contraceptives, analgesics).
Deficiencies in glutathione leave the body vulnerable to toxins and inflammation making the body weak and robbing one of high performance. Despite differing in biochemical pathways, these diseases are facilitated by high levels of oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants defenses and is a primary cause of cellular damage leading to disease. Throughout a life span, one is constantly exposed to free radicals through strenuous work, environmental toxin exposure, diet, and autoimmune disorder. There is good news however, we can take active role in increasing our antioxidants capacity, thereby quenching the free radical's reactivity, reducing free radicals protects the cell from oxidative damage. A large body of literature supports the notion that dietary antioxidants play an important role. Glutathione is called the "Master Antioxidant" by some and for good reason. Glutathione has many other responsibilities in addition to antioxidant functions, at the organismal levels, the effects are manifest as: increased energy, better sleep quality exercise recovery, and blood circulation, mental clarity, less inflammation, and slower aging. Additionally, glutathione recycles other antioxidants and antioxidant enzymes including Vitamins C, E and others. The important functions of "Glutathione" are widely recognized in 1990's.
So How Do We Optimize Our Glutathione levels? The Most Obvious Way To Increase Glutathione Is Through Direct Supplementation.

The best biochemically Advanced Dietary Nutrients, including a unique formulation of stable, Highly Absorbable (GSH) Glutathione. It is made with Co-Factors that further advance the actions and benefits of our glutathione. It is pure, simple and scientifically stable.
Glutathione is a biochemically integrated, essential “fact of life” in all of the life processes, such “error-free” cell division, movement, defense, incorporation of outside materials into new cells, etc.
Glutathione is the “pillar of Life, as we know it”.
Glutathione is a tripeptide consisting of three amino acids: glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. It is found to varying degrees in all cells, tissues, body fluids, and organ systems.
Glutathione is recognized as the great protector. Without glutathione, each cell would become so ravaged by free radicals that it would disintegrate. The lack of Glutathione would also negatively affect the liver and immune system. By fighting free radicals, Glutathione supports the liver so it can carry out its job of detoxifying the body. Likewise, preventing free radical damage also helps promote a healthy immune system.
Our bodies obtain glutathione in two ways:
From the foods we eat, from our own internal production.
Because of the body's ability to make Glutathione, it is not considered an "essential" nutrient. Under some conditions, though, the body's need for glutathione is outpaced by its ability to produce it.
Glutathione is the most powerful, the most versatile and the most important part of the body's self-generated "Molecular Regulators".
Cell Glutathione levels typically drop as we age and the result is a gradual decline in the Imune Function.
Free radical damage affects how well we age. As the body's "Master Antioxidant", Glutathione protects cells against free radical damage, thereby supporting the normal functioning of tissues and organs. Glutathione also plays a key role in detoxification and fortifies the immune system. Not surprisingly, over 80,000 published studies have shown that Glutathione plays a central role in good health:
High Glutathione levels appear to be associated with a long lifespan.
Higher levels of Glutathione and/or higher dietary intake of Glutathione is associated with a healther heart, eyes, colon and more.
Among older individuals, higher Glutathione status appear to be associated with multiple measures of good health, including cholesterol, body mass index, blood pressure, blood sugar, and self-ratings of overall health.
Glutathione is at its lowest level in the morning and should be replenished daily through a healthy diet or supplementation.
