Glutathione Plus Transdermal Cream - 2 OZ Tube

Glutathione Plus Transdermal Cream by Health Pro Labs

Glutathione (GSH) is classified as a tripeptide which means it is composed of three amino acids. Amino Acids are the building blocks of protein and peptides are a family of molecules that link various amino acids together. The human body produces glutathione from the amino acids Cysteine, Glutamic Acid and Glycine, and it is the key antioxidant compound required for vital functioning of all cells.

Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant known as the ‘master antioxidant,’ pivotal in alleviating oxidative stress and protecting individual cells and tissues from free radicals. It is also known to enhance healthy growth and activity of immune cells needed for disease resistance and immune protection. In addition it enables the body to rid itself of unwanted toxins and heavy metals, detoxifying the liver, the body’s most concentrated source of glutathione; and protecting the body from today’s environmental pollutants, natural and synthetic toxins, genetically engineered processed foods and toxic waste. Each cell in the body must have the raw materials necessary to produce glutathione and store a sufficient amount to survive the human demand in our world of poor diet, pollution, drugs, radiation, stress, infection, trauma, injury, and disease. Diminished levels of glutathione have always been associated with aging; however, in today’s toxic world, low levels of glutathione are no longer only reserved for the aged. Low levels of glutathione have been implicated in many autoimmune disorders and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, Autism, HIV, MS Rheumatoid Arthritis etc. One of the most recent studies by Jill S. James, M.D. and her colleagues from the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, has been on children with low levels of glutathione and the impact of the adverse effects of the Ethylmercury found in the preservative Thimerosal used in childhood vaccines. Dr. St. James found that children with autism have considerably lower levels of glutathione in their blood than neuro-typical children. The study determines that mercury actually disrupts the natural metabolic process in the body called methylation. Methylation is the primary mechanism by which the body eliminates heavy metals and toxins from the body. If not enough glutathione is available in the body, then heavy metals and toxins will store in fat tissue. The brain, nervous system, breasts and prostate consist of mainly fat and therefore are more susceptible to the accumulation of environmental toxins. This could account for the increase in autism, breast and prostate cancers over the last decade.

Dr. James and others have concluded that by raising the amount of glutathione in the blood, it will help bind the heavy metals and remove them from the body and also help brain and immune development for children on the autism spectrum. Increasing glutathione levels and effectively improving detoxification of the liver has been found to increase language and awareness for these children. An important factor is the delivery system of glutathione, particularly for children who find ingestion, injection and/or intravenous very difficult to tolerate.

Malabsorption in the gastrointestinal tract can also be another deterrent in the up taking process, which makes a transdermal glutathione more attractive.

As a solution our unique liposome-mediated delivery system, is a transdermal glutathione cream with supporting raw materials and co-factors involved in the methylation process needed to enhance the efficacy of the glutathione. Such nutrients as Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC); the basic amino acid needed to create glutathione, B-12 in a methylated form called methylcobalamin assisting the body to produce more glutathione and absorb it better; Glucosamine Sulphate providing the sulphur component necessary for the methylation process of detoxing out the metals from the body; and L-Carnosine, a dipeptide (two amino acids, L- Alanine and L- Histidine), known for its ability to chelate metals out of the body are all found in this high potency formulation.

The advantage and convenience of transdermal glutathione cream is that it is delivered immediately into the skin, bypassing any mal-absorption problems of the gastro-intestinal tract, which can be a common occurrence when the body is toxic with heavy metals and cutaneously absorbed into the blood stream effectively increasing the body’s glutathione levels.
