Substances that Boost Glutathione Levels and Protect Brain Cells

Taking Glutathione itself as a supplement does not boost cellular Glutathione levels, since it breaks down in the digestive tract before it reaches the cells.

However, intravenous Glutathione therapy and Glutathione precursors or dietary supplements are effective in boosting intracellular levels ofGlutathione.

Intravenous Glutathione Injections:
Intravenous Glutathione injections have been shown to produce amazing and rapid results, in patients with Parkinson's disease. Followingeven a single dosage of intravenous Glutathione, many of the symptoms of Parkinson's disease rapidly improve, often in as little as 15 minutes.

Glutathione Precursors:
In the Alzheimer's study conducted by Welsh GP, Andrew McCaddon, adding theGlutathione precursor, N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) to a protocol thatlowered homocysteine levels by simple supplementation with B12 and folate, resulted in prompt, striking, and sustained clinical improvement in nearly all the patients.

Cucurmin (turmeric):
Studies have shown that the Indian curry spice, cucurmin, has neuroprotective effects because of its ability to induce the enzyme, hemeoxygenase-1(HO-1), which protects neurons exposed to oxidant stress. Treatment of brain cells called astrocytes, with curcumin, increases expression of HO-1 protein as well as Glutathione S-transferase.
