Intravenous Glutathione
Our body is constantly fighting the insult caused by toxins and chemicals that we are exposed to through the environment, our diets, personal care products and the overall lifestyles that we live. Unfortunately these toxins will accelerate the aging process, increase our vulnerability toward illness and will disrupt our bodies ability to function optimally. Free radicals, unstable molecules that form due to these insults, can cause inflammation and various chronic illnesses if their numbers are greater than the antioxidants in our cells. Glutathione (GHS), a strong antioxidant made of amino acids, has the ability to naturally shield our body from the long-term dangers posed by these disease causing free radicals, while simultaneously removing hazardous waste and toxins from our body. Within the human body, there are three critical functions of GHS: it acts as an immune system booster, aids in systemic detoxification and is a master antioxidant. When our levels of GHS are depleted, there is an increased susceptibility to chronic illness.
Intravenous administration of Glutathione has demonstrated numerous beneficial roles including the maximization of a powerful anti-oxidant, binding of toxins that accumulate in the body like mercury, lead and antibiotic toxicity resulting in rapid expulsion through the urine and feces. It has been a remarkable treatment for many patients helping with an array of challenging health symptoms. GHS has been used with positive results in treatment of skin disease such as acne, neurological disease such as Parkinsons Disease etc.
The physician and patient determine the duration of sessions which is based on the individual concern. The RN gives the GHS via an intravenous push lasting aproximately 20-30 minutes. Afterwards one is able to go on with the day without limitations.
