GLUTATHIONE or “Gluta” for short has been known as a skin-whitening agent and it may improve skin elasticity and reduce skin wrinkles.
But do you also know that aside from skin, Gluta can boost your immune system?
Glutathione is the mother of all antioxidants ridding our body of toxins, fighting diseases, and illnesses. Best to take while we are in the scare of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In a research study about the hyperpigmentation reversal effects of glutathione, scientists called it the “wonder drug” for skin lightening. Core Medical Science terms it the “master antioxidant”.
Gluta can be added to whitening soap, taken orally, and in an intramuscular shot or commonly called “Gluta drip”. Some medical professionals believe it is not effective orally. Intramuscularly is the way to go. Glutathione IV infusion is these doctors’ preferred method of administration seeing the best absorption.
Before and after ‘Gluta drip’
It is quite interesting if you view the before and after photos of subjects using glutathione shots as skin-lightening agents. There are noticeable improvements. Do these glutathione injections for skin whitening work?
Studies were done on Filipino women ages 22-42 years old with dark skin. According to this study, it is a means to achieve a lighter face. More studies are being conducted to advance glutathione injections for skin lightening effects.
Gluta drip benefits
Glutathione injection are used by doctors to detox the body of poisonous side effects of medical treatments such as chemotherapy. Because of its free-radical defense mechanism given to cells, it is a great detox!
Glutathione injections’ benefits include fertility for men. Often this is what is injected intramuscularly to wake up those sperm giving them stronger swimming power!
Other benefits include:
* Reduces oxidative stress – Glutathione injection will counteract the stress we pick up from the environment. These stressors can lead to diseases such as diabetes, arthritis, and cancer.
* Improves psoriasis – Glutathione injection benefits include fighting those unpleasant bumps on the skin. Researchers found with the administration of whey protein, which glutathione is in, the scaly bumps disappear.
* Reverses cell damage in people with fatty liver disease – a study conducted on those with fatty liver disease (the alcoholics and non-alcoholics alike) were administered intravenously high doses of glutathione.
* Parkinson’s disease calming – Although there is no cure for this disease yet, studies show that a glutathione injection side effect is reducing tremors of this debilitating disease (Mayo Clinic, August 2002). We must continue to pray, support, and work toward a cure.
* Fights against arthritis – Glutathione injection benefits include protecting autoimmune disease victim’s cells from their self-induced free radicals attacking their mitochondria.
* Reduce respiratory problems – A glutathione injection benefit may be to reduce symptoms in asthmatics. Glutathione is a byproduct of what scientists put in medicinal inhalants to thin the mucous of asthmatics.
The side effects
Glutathione’s side effects are minimal and may include some cramping, bloating, or a rash. There is little research on this subject as there has been little concern regarding this. It has not been a continuous complaint large enough to support substantial time and money to research.
