Glutathione: How to Detoxify Your Body with the Master Antioxidant

Body toxins are things we cannot really prevent; they build up in our body simply through the things that we do every day.

We are exposed to toxins through sources like food (preservatives, pesticides, chemicals, food packaging materials etc.), air (pollution from our different means of transportation, factories, gas flaring etc.), medications, and water (fluoride and other chemicals).

This means we are exposed to toxins every minutes of the day; this toxins can build up in our body and cause some form of harm to us.

Toxins are just like poison to the body cells and organs, and it is therefore imperative to prevent them from building up in our body by getting rid of them effectively and regularly.

A body that is free of toxins is a body with smooth metabolism and overall good health.

There are lot of proven ways to detoxify the body; such of them are:

    • 1. Drinking a lot of water

 

    • 2. Eating fresh vegetables

 

    • 3. Glutathione (an antioxidant produced in the cells)

 

    • 4. Minimizing sugar intake

 

    • 5. Regular exercise

 

    • 6. Good night rest

 

    • 7. Eating more legumes and less meat and fish

 

    8. Drinking a lot of tea

All the above detoxification methods are effective for getting rid of body toxins; however, none is more effective than the third method above – Glutathione.

What is Glutathione?

Glutathione – synthesized in the body from the amino acids L-glutamic acids, L-cysteine and glycine – is the master detoxifier and antioxidant of every cell in the body.

    • 9. Increase energy levels

 

    • 10. Strengthen the immune system
