How Can Glutathione Help With Immunity, Detoxification Or even Cancer ...
Glutathione

It's a known fact, everyone wants to live a longer and
happier life. And really, all that is required to achieve
this is to have a healthy mind and a healthy body. A
healthy body is one which is full of energy, good immunity
and a great detoxification system. I'm sure you agree, you
need to have all the three for the best results. However
something that you may not know is one nutrient
specifically plays an important role in providing all three
of these, and it is known as 'Glutathione'. Your body
itself synthesizes this vital nutrient and all you have to
do is to support your body ability to produce glutathione
in adequate amounts.

Glutathione - the anti-oxidant and free radicals

Our body undergoes wear and tear continuously. It is
exposed to so many harmful things. It is exposed to stress,
pollution, radiation, infection, drugs, poor diet, aging,
injury, trauma etc. All these pile up a dangerous group of
chemicals called free radicals. These get accumulated in
the cells. These free radicals meddle with the normal
functioning of the cells.

Free radicals need to be removed if your bodies cells are
to function normally. This is where anti-oxidants play a
major role. They neutralize these free radicals and prevent
them from causing further damage to the cells. Glutathione
is the super anti-oxidant that is present inside the cell
itself. It is present in all cells and efficiently
nullifies the effects of free radicals. The incredible
thing is that Glutathione is produced naturally in our
body. However as we age we produce less and less,
eventually allowing free radicals to run freely in our
body. Creating disease and other problems we call, "the
signs of aging"

Glutathione and immunity

A weak immune system is helpless in preventing various
infections. If your immune system is low, for example if
you have an HIV infection, even bacteria that are very mild
without causing any disease can enter your body producing
various symptoms. The vital molecule glutathione is present
in all cells including the cells of the immune system. They
readily ward off any kind of infection. You have to keep
the optimum level of glutathione inside the cells. All you
really have to do is keep a diet rich in glutathione and
help your body to create more of it.

Glutathione and detoxification

There is a wonderful organ in our body - the liver. It
synthesizes protein, stores energy and removes the toxic
substances from the body. Whatever is considered a foreign
substance and deemed toxic, are removed from the body by
the liver. With the help of a few chemical substances and a
few chemical reactions involving them, the liver
neutralizes these toxic substances by a process called
detoxification.

Detoxification occurs in two phases - phase I and phase II
reactions. A number of chemical substances are involved in
this. And the most important one is the glutathione. Though
glutathione is available in many natural food substances
like fresh fruits and vegetables, the liver can synthesize
glutathione on its own when necessity arises.

Glutathione and cancer

With improved standard of living and better medical
facilities, the diseases caused by infections have
decreased. But there is an increase in the incidence of
many non-infectious diseases including cancer. Research has
shown that people who suffer from cancer have low levels of
glutathione in their body. By keeping the glutathione at
normal levels, cancer can either be prevented or its
progression can be stopped.
