Intracellular Glutathione
The benefits provided by glutathione - Your immune system depends on your cells producing glutathione to aid in the prevention of all illnesses and diseases.
(PRWEB) December 17, 2004 -- Every single cell has its own built-in defense
system. It’s called glutathione. Each cell in the body makes glutathione.
Glutathione protects the cell against free radical damage and DNA changes. As
the level of glutathione goes down, the cell’s defense weakens. The cell can be
“injured” by free radicals and even “mutate” and start multiplying out of
control – that’s called a tumor or growth. Over a period of time, these mutated
cells can turn to cancer.
The lower glutathione levels also affect the
immune system. It no longer can do its job. When your glutathione levels are
strong, your immune system will recognize “mutated” or “injured” cells and
neutralize them. Every day, the immune system does this without you ever being
aware of it.
Getting back to the mutated cells that are now cancer cells
– cancer cells take every bit of nutrition that can be used to make glutathione;
so they become stronger and stronger. That’s why you always hear your doctor
telling you that cancer cells are hard to destroy because they are so
strong.
Other normal cells start to suffer and weaken. When you introduce
chemo or radiation, the cancer cells are stronger and the normal cells really
take a beating. You are usually very sick; you look sick, and you have a very
high risk of a future cancer from the ‘poison’ (chemo) you took to try to boost
your immune system into helping kill the cancer cells.
Suppose you could
find a product that would safely – without side effects – protect your normal
cells, work with or without chemotherapy and/or radiation, and have zero
interactions with any drug you might be taking? This product gives the
precursors (building blocks) for every cell to make glutathione! Cancer cells
gobble this up in the 1st days. Soon, they are too ‘full’ and, like normal
cells, ‘shut down’ the manufacturing of glutathione.
The big difference
between a cancer cell and a normal cell is cancer cells can never, ever turn the
mechanism back on to make glutathione again! Normal cells can make glutathione
today, but tomorrow say, “Nope, don’t need any today.” The next day they say,
“Yes, I’ll make some today!”
As the cancer cell defense grows weaker, the
normal cells become stronger and stronger right along with the immune system.
This is why it is so important to take 3 or 4 packs a day in the beginning to
start the ‘shut-down’ of the cancer cell’s defense. Glutathione then actually
becomes the downfall for cancer cells.
Doctors will tell you that you
cannot take immune system boosters like the antioxidants C, E, etc. They are
CORRECT! Your cancer cells are already stronger than your normal cells. Adding
more to their defense system will help protect them even more against chemo and
radiation. Those antioxidants are not made inside the cells, but they are used
by the cells. So, taking them in every day just reinforces the cancer
cells.
Rememer: taking glutathione pills won’t build glutathione in the
cell. The glutathione molecule is too big to get into a cell. Just the process
of digestion destroys most of it. The cell must make its own glutathione. If you
take the drug, NAC, to build glutathione – the doctors use it in hospitals to
detoxify your liver after a poisoning – you would have to take doses high enough
to make you vomit all day; and NAC is so short-lived, you’d have to have many
intravenous doses throughout the day. It still would not allow the cells to make
their own glutathione. (Intraveneous NAC has been used in all studies related to
NAC applications, NOT the pills in health food stores.)
In closing,
Immunocal is in the PDR on the drug side, not the vitamin/mineral/herb side. We
have medical method-of-use patents, not ingredient patents. One is for the
treatment and prevention of cancer. These medical patents are earned by the same
scientific studies any drug has to go through to be OK’d for use against
disease. Immunocal is in the pharmacist’s Red Book, to show there are no
interactions with any drugs, and no adverse side effects. Immunocal is
Medicare/Medicaid endorsed. Natural products never have this kind of science or
endorsements. Immunocal has 23 published studies in prestigious medical
journals. There are over 61,000 studies on the internet (Medline) that many
countries and institutions are doing with glutathione.
Example:
Cell A
is a normal cell. Cell B is low on glutathione. They both are being attacked
every day by free radicals.
Slowly, as we age, glutathione levels start
dropping. Now, the B cell is very low in glutathione and the immune system is
weakened. The cell is penetrated by the free radicals and weakens further. This
‘injured’ cell B is not destroyed by the immune system. The DNA is changed and
the cell has started to mutate. It starts multiplying and causing a ‘mass’ or
‘tumor’.
Now that B has grown, B can start ‘hogging’ all the nutrients it
needs to make glutathione. It becomes stronger and stronger. As it builds its
strength, it grows out of control and becomes cancerous. It is so strong, that,
even if chemo is introduced, it can withstand the chemo-induced immune system
response. However, the weakened normal cell (A) of the body is brutally abused
by the ‘poison’ of chemo and radiation. Even if you managed somehow to recover
from the first cancer, your immune system is so ‘beat-up’ after the
chemo/radiation, that it still can’t do its job. The normal cell (A) is so
susceptible to free radical damage that it takes about 1 to 4 years before it,
too, fails and becomes a secondary cancer with even more strength than the
primary.
When you increase glutathione levels in the body, the cancer
cell stops making glutathione and becomes the weaker cell. The immune system has
strengthened and now it can take mutated cells like A and destroy them. Every
day, the immune system does this repeatedly. Glutathione, the master
antioxidant, is needed for the immune system cells too; so your body is doubly
protected from everyday free radical damage and DNA mutations.
Here are
some sobering statistics from the University of Illinois School of Public
Health:
·In the last 30 years, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma has increased
nearly 100%.
·Brain cancer has increased 80-90%.
·Testicular cancer in men
28-35 years old has increased 300%.
·Childhood cancers have increased
40-50%.
But now we have real answers, not only for the “Why?” but also
for Prevention.
Immunocal is all science and fact!
