Glutathione is the mother of all antioxidants because it kicks into gear all the other antioxidants.
"We all evolved at a time before there were 80,000 toxic industrial chemicals that were introduced into our world, before electromagnetic radiation, before we polluted our lakes and rivers, skies and oceans and before our teeth had dental amalgams with mercury and lead." says Mark Hyman, MD.
He explains that before the modern world, we used to have enough detox power and function naturally occurring in our bodies.
Now we have to make sure we have this amazing antioxidant in high enough levels, that is responsible for keeping so many of the keys to ultra wellness optimized.
Glutathione is responsible for controlling inflammation, it's the master detoxifier, it's the main antioxidant that protects our cells and our energy metabolism.
Most of us probably have a deficiency, but you can find out here how to increase your levels through your food.
