Glutathione IV
Glutathione IV
Glutathione is a powerful anti-oxidant has many health benefits. Antioxidants are our body’s solution for dealing with oxidative stress. Oxidative stress occurs when there is a disruption of the balance between the production of free radicals and the ability of naturally occurring antioxidants like glutathione in our bodies to neutralize and detoxify their harmful effects. A free radical is an oxygen containing molecule that has unpaired electrons that makes it highly reactive with other molecules in the body. This reaction can be good but it can also be bad for the body because it can damage cells and their components i.e DNA, cell walls, protein and lipids, which makes cells unstable. This instability can lead to neurodegenerative diseases, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, chronic fatigue, cardiovascular disease and inflammatory diseases. Glutathione plays essential roles in the immune response, DNA repair, and the detoxification process that neutralizes drugs, chemicals, metabolic wastes and other toxins. Its depletion is associated with disease and premature aging. The benefits of glutathione far outweigh any potential side effects that only occur with extremely high doses of glutathione typically not used in medical practice.
Used to treat diseases such as cancer, autism and liver illnesses, glutathione was found to have skin lightening as a side effect. Patients discovered found that their skin became lighter during glutathione treatments for medical condition. It appears that glutathione may have skin lightening effects based on its ability to impact the balance of light and dark pigments in our skin (pheomelanin and eumelanin). Glutathione inhibits tyrosinase enzyme which then switches the production of eumelanin to pheomelanin. Its lightening effects appear to work better when combined with IV vitamin C. Glutathione injections are given with vitamin C because it helps glutathione to stay in its most active form. Vitamin C has been scientifically proven to raise the levels of glutathione in the body. Glutathione also appears to work by ridding the body of toxins and free radicals that lead to hyperpigmentation, age spots, sun spots, wrinkles and conditions such as melasma.
