Glutathione ?

[Guest guest]

Anybody have any experience using transdermal glutathione? My levels

using NAC 600mg twice a day are too low.

I used to use Immunocal-2 packs a day to maintain my glutathione

levels, but now that I need to follow a rotation diet for numerous food

allergies, I can't do that. Taking 1200 mg NAC twice a day doesn't seem

to be enough for me and I'm concerned about the toxicity of the NAC

itself at larger doses for an extended period of time.

I came across some research Oikawa S., Yamada in Carcinogenesis,

1999;20;1485-1490, NAC, a cancer chemopreventative agent, causes

oxidative damage to cellular and isolated DNA. I also came across some

information elsewhere mentioning taking extra Vitamin C when taking NAC

to offset the oxidation of NAC.

I believe Immunocal has no such toxicity, but question whether taking

4 packs of it on one day and then skipping 3 days, in order to rotate

it, to build up my glutathione levels would be a good idea, it being a

large dose at one time.
