Re: Glutathione form for nebulizing

[Guest guest]

Hi, mjh.

From what I've been able to find out, it's best to use distilled

water that's been boiled or sterilized, and to add reduced

glutathione that is buffered with sodium bicarbonate to the water

just before you are going to use it in the nebulizer.

The reason for using boiled, distilled water is to keep insoluble

particulates and bacteria out of the lungs.

Reduced glutathione is the active form of glutathione, and that's

the form you want.

The sodium bicarbonate buffers the pH of the nebulizing solution so

that it is near-neutral and less likely to irritate the bronchial

tubes and produce bronchospasm. Nevertheless, this still happens in

people who are subject to asthma when given nebulized glutathione,

so nebulized glutathione should not be given to them.

Mixing it just before use prevents the glutathione from becoming

oxidized by sitting around in contact with the air in an aqueous

solution.

Buffered reduced glutathione capsules are available from

http://www.theranaturals.com as a product called Reduced L-

Glutathione Plus. Each capsule contains 200 mg of reduced

glutathione and 55 mg of sodium bicarbonate, and is to be mixed with

3 to 5 milliliters of the water specified above, for one application

by nebulizer.
