“The field of free-radical biology is exploding and the list of disease states linked to oxidative stress is growing rapidly. In the past three years, [dated from an August 2008 article] over 38,000 scientific papers have been released dealing with glutathione and its effects on a significant number of these diseases (1).”
Glutathione, “...the most powerful naturally occurring antioxidant in all human cells...(2)” is “...a tripeptide of glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine whose deficiency is commonly associated with hemolytic anemia. It functions by taking up and giving off hydrogen. It transports amino acids across cell membranes and conjugates to drugs enabling excretion...(3)”
According to the Wikipedia definition of glutathione, it “...is not an essential nutrient since it can be synthesized from the amino acids L-cysteine, L-glutamic acid, and glycine (4).” However, it becomes an essential nutrient when the liver is overwhelmed with toxins and thus, since “Glutathione is an essential nutrient for the liver’s role as a detoxifying organ. Decreased levels of glutathione lead to a decrease in the liver’s ability to detoxify. Glutathione also has antioxidant activity which is hindered in deficiency states. This could lead to an increase of free-radical damage throughout the body (5).”
It is written that “...metabolically, glutathione has many functions. For example, glutathione plays a substantial role in the functioning of the body’s immune system. Its antioxidant property makes it vital to white blood cells (lymphocytes)-as it allows them to reach their full potential during the oxygen-requiring activity of the body’s immune response...(6).”
There have been several studies completed which showed that there might be a correlation between the lack of glutathione in the system of a Multiple Sclerosis patient and their symptoms. “...Given the potential importance of free radicals in the pathogenesis of MS, use of natural antioxidants as part of natural medicine approach to MS appears indicated (7)."
In addition, Fowles writes that supplementation with Glutathione is said to be especially necessary in individuals who take acetaminophen, because “acetaminophen has been shown to decrease levels of glutathione...in the liver (8).” It is imperative to note that “...without the protection from oxidative injury afforded by glutathione, cells may be damaged or killed (9).”
In conclusion, according to Patrick Holford, founder of the Institute for Optimum Nutrition, “...if there were one measure of your antioxidant ‘IQ,’ it would be the level of glutathione inside your cells... (10).” Therefore, supplementation with this potent antioxidant could possibly be a vital addition to one’s natural health regimen.
