Glutathione (GSH) is an antioxidant that occurs naturally and is produced by the body. It is present in almost every cell and plays a vital role in maintaining cellular health while shielding cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals, toxins, and environmental pollutants. Glutathione is instrumental in neutralizing these harmful substances and preventing cellular damage.
Glutathione is composed of three amino acids: cysteine, glutamic acid, and glycine. It is often referred to as the "master antioxidant" due to its ability to regenerate other antioxidants like vitamins C and E, as well as alpha-lipoic acid. This unique property makes it an essential component for maintaining overall antioxidant defense in the body.
Glutathione exists in two forms: reduced glutathione (GSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG). The reduced form (GSH) is the active and beneficial form that acts as a powerful antioxidant. It donates an electron to free radicals, neutralizing them and converting them into harmless compounds. The oxidized form (GSSG) is a byproduct of this process and needs to be recycled back into its reduced form for optimal functioning.
Glutathione can be administered in various ways, including oral supplementation, topical creams, and intravenous (IV) infusion. Glutathione IV therapy involves delivering a concentrated dose of glutathione directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system for better absorption and bioavailability.
Glutathione IV therapy has gained popularity for its potential benefits in various health aspects. It is often sought after for its skin-lightening and anti-aging properties. Some of our patients have reported a brighter and more even skin tone, as it is believed to inhibit melanin production and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation.
​
Apart from its cosmetic applications, glutathione IV has also been explored for its potential therapeutic benefits in various health conditions. It has been studied for its role in supporting liver function, detoxification processes, immune system modulation, and reducing oxidative stress associated with chronic diseases. The dosage and duration of treatment may vary depending on individual needs and health conditions.
