glutathione and what it does

[MG_Dinosaur]

I've got a few things I'm trying to figure out. When it comes to glutathione, I'm not really clear on it. A person I know told me to start taking it, saying it clears heavy stuff out of your body and boosts immunity. My knowledge here is pretty limited — could somebody break down whether that's accurate, and if it is, what dosage would be right?

What Glutathione Offers:

A strong antioxidant that also counters aging: it neutralizes free radicals responsible for cellular harm and early aging.

Support for liver detox: by helping the liver attach to toxins, heavy metals, and drugs so they can be removed more easily, it is useful in fatty liver disease.

Backing for the immune system: white blood cell activity is enhanced, which aids in fighting infections.

Benefits for skin: melanin can be lowered to lighten skin tone, while moisture and elasticity may improve.

Role in mitochondria: it shields mitochondria, which are vital for producing energy, from oxidative harm.

Lowering oxidative stress: it assists in managing conditions tied to elevated oxidation, including diabetes and cardiovascular problems

Taking precursors by mouth is likely the better route. Because of how large the molecule is, glutathione itself has a hard time getting inside cells, which is where it is actually needed. Cellular glutathione levels can be raised by NAC ( n-acetyl cysteine ), and NAC combined with glycine does the same. It costs less, is simpler to use, and is likely to work better.

Looks like @CNCCurrency already listed every benefit.

On the dosing side, what I've come across is pretty inconsistent. My own routine is 250mg every other day, though I've heard of people using anywhere from 200mg weekly to as much as 2000mg. So look into it yourself, decide how you want to approach it, and begin at a low amount.

One more thing: pairing vitamin C and E with NAC is something I'd strongly suggest if you're running a Glutathione protocol.

Understood — so nothing beyond a plain C and E combo then?

My routine is 200 mg on alternate days.

And when it comes to my peptide usage, where should it fit — before, while I'm using it, or afterward?

I take mine first thing in the morning, and then 30 min after that, nad and 5 amino

Is there a specific reason behind waiting 30 min?

endotoxins

 

[swimmer]

Every morning I do a subq shot of 100mg alongside vitamin c. A suggestion came my way over 1 year back that it could cut down migraines. The result was a 75% drop in them. When injectable runs out, I switch to capsules. Taking 1500 mg by mouth each day gives me the same outcome. The problem with oral is poor absorption, which is why my dose goes way up when that's my only option.

I wasn't aware of that at all. That option has crossed my mind before, but ISR's tend to happen to me. Do the capsules cost a lot?

Appreciate it! I'm going to look into that now.

So the idea is that it helps flush out endotoxins produced by NAD and 1A? That's interesting. Up to now I've been injecting IM glutathione and NAD together (though not in one syringe), but I might change the schedule now. Are you using Korean glutathione or Chinese?

Yeah, I do that with the NAD too — better safe than sorry. The glut I go with is from South Korea, and I also get pharma grade glut plus ascorbic acid from there.

When I get up, I take all of them at once, apart from a handful that I take together right before sleeping. Spacing them out is what some people prefer, but committing to that isn't something I have the time or willpower for. Compared with the other crap I used to put in my body, endotoxins can't be worse. Lol

Should it be taken by mouth or injected? I have the glutathione, but after hearing some negative remarks, I have held off on pinning it..

Wow, that sounds like pure magic.
