Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Hi Its struck me that since I have been on Whey protein for almost 1 year and I have no reaction to it - I seem to plateau this pathway to raise Glutathione and so I have stopped taking this temporarily. I also include magnesium , Vit c, Zinc to help raise Glutathione daily. Im now looking at new ways to raise Glutathione via different pathways: 1) Turmeric 2) Milk Thistle 3) Selenium Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Sorry CS if you have already mentioned this, but have you taken Lipoceutical Glutathione, and if so what happened?

Take care. Bernie well, my glutathione is very low, I take 2000mg C daily and have for years, during the last 6 mo my glut actually dropped over 100 pts even lower in the way too low range. So this sure didn't work for me. Glutathione is NOT as easy to restore as some of those tidbits make it sound. Marcia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Hi, CS, Bernie, Marcia and the group. I think this is true in normal, healthy people, but not in those who have a problem higher up in their sulfur metabolism. For them, too much vitamin C may even deplete glutathione, because glutathione is what recycles the vitamin C, and becomes oxidized in the process. Although it is normally reduced by glutathione reductase, this enzyme can be blocked by mercury, and I think some glutathione is lost from the cells as it cycles back and forth.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Nope. I started on Whey Protein isolate and have been taking it for around a year now- when I first started taking it the detox reaction was evident and I had to build up slowly. However i have plateaud on Why protein hence i have dropped it temporarily. I am now keen to look into other ways to boost Glutatathione using : turmeric/ selenium and milk thistle. I believe Im only seeing the detox reaction with turmeric because I have already cleared away alot of toxins from my body. Regards CS MY REGIME: 1) HEAVY METALS & THYROID - Raise Glutathione via Whey Protein Isolate 2) PARASITES/FUNGAL/BACTERIAL - Lactoferrin / Coconut oil / Manuka Honey 3) ADRENALS - Sea Salt / Licorice 4) DIGESTION - Probiotics / Bromelain enzyme 5) VITAMINS - EFA's / Zinc / Magnesium & minerals / Strong Multi vits / Vit C / Co Q10 6) DIET - Protein / Butter / Veggies & Salad/ Rice / Yoghurt / Sunflower seeds / Water - no wheat/ limited dairy / limited fruit / no nuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 In my case i havent used NAC as there have been many negative things said about it ie stimulating bacteria and increasing heavy metal mobilisation to brain,. The best thing I did was to take Whey protein isolate as this cleared the way to improve on improvment! Regards CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Thanks bernie. I want to go beyond vit c and look at the best ways to increase Glutathione in as many differnet ways. Regards CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 For me the key was to take Whey protein - i have a feeling this is the base to build Glutathione and then you can work of it once one has plateaud by adding other things to increase Glutathione ie : vitc , magnesium , zinc, selenium, turmeric, milk thistle Regards CS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Hi Maxine, I started with less than half a tea spoon belive it or not. The reactions were evident in the sense that I could feel it working and it would give me headaches. I THINK ALOT OF PEOPLE STOP TAKING IT AT THIS POINT ! A sign that i was very deficient of Glutathione and a sign that I had alot of toxins. I continued for another 2 months on this dosage before I gradually built up the dosage. A year later I can see no reactions and i can drink it by the scoop full. I also took a bromalain enzyme tab with it sometimes.
