Who Does Glutathione Help?

Animal and laboratory studies have demonstrated that glutathione has the potential to fight almost any disease, particularly those associated with aging, since free radical damage is the cause of many of the diseases of old age.
"Theoretically, there are many very strong arguments in favor of a therapeutic use of glutathione," says Appleton. "But when people have actually tried to use glutathione as an oral supplement, nasal spray, or intravenously, the results have been more of a preliminary nature. The amount of research on glutathione as a supplement ... is very limited."

There are indeed numerous studies on the supplements that boost glutathione. Perhaps over 20K of the 80K studies look at supplementation. This is only a rough estimate and not an actual count.

Just do a PubMed Search on any disease process and NAC, N-AcetylCysteine, cysteine, and or Immunocal.

Both NAC and Immunocal are listed in the Physician Desk Reference which requires a lot of studies to be listed.

And yes, the results are outstanding.

One posting on WebMD is of a patient who beat cancer using Immunocal. Yes, WebMD.

There are a number of companies trying to cash in on the success of the two main companies that make the two best supplements. These knock offs do not have much in the way of scientific proof that they work.

You can lean more at about glutathione at http://www.GlutathioneDiseaseCure.com although it has little info on the supplements.

There are a number of dietary things you can do to boost your glutathione.
