We are told frequently these days about the need of antioxidants in our food. Common ones are vitamin c and vitamin e. Antioxidants function is to counter free radicals that could otherwise cause harm to cells in your body. Free radicals are caused by disease, stress, pollution and sun light.
Your body in fact produce their own antioxidants. The most powerful one it produces is called glutathione. It is made up of 3 amino acids. Levels of glutathione are particularly high in the liver, lungs and skin. The other primary endogenous antioxidants are catalase and superoxide dismutate.
Glutathione is also an important detoxifier. It conjugates with toxins and heavy metals, and then is eliminated from the body.
Boosting your glutathione levels has not been simple. IV has been the only way previously to significantly raise your levels. More recently MaxGXL was created that dramatically raises glutathione in a convenient capsule form.
