"Ive been struggling with this.. been on glutathione & ATP injections daily for a few months and it has worked miracles..now that im introducing MethylB12 I planned on cutting it out, but im still taking it on the days I dont to the B12 shots..I dont know if im causing my body to over detox (assumed taking glut for that long would have already started the process).."
Where do you get the glutathione & ATP injections? Are there supplements that are effective, or do these have to be injected? I would like to try glutathione, but have heard that it has to be used IV to be effective.
There are different type of Glutathione supplements and some people get benefit from them. The most common is reduced Glutathione taken orally with a capsule or tablet. The problem with this is that the absorption rate is relatively low. There is also reduced glutathione lotions/transdermal creams. If you do try that, under the armpits is the best place to use it since the skin is thinner there so it's better absorbed. There are reduced glutathione sublinguals. Source Naturals' is the only one I've seen that is reasonably priced. Theirs also has molybdenum and B2 which are cofactors for Glutathione production. Other oral methods of glutathione promise to be more effective. These are liposomal or lipoceutical glutathione and acetyl glutathione. There are other threads discussing these last two.
Aside from taking Glutathione directly, there are many supplements to increase Glutathione and ATP which might be more effective especially if combined with taking glutathione directly. As dbkita mentioned, increasing ATP can also help increase Glutathione. Supplements useful for boosting ATP and Glutathione include NAC/L-Cysteine, B2, Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)/R-Lipoic Acid, L-Carnitine Fumarate, Acetyl-L-Carnitine, Coenzyme Q10/Ubiquinol, Magnesium, Malic Acid, Magnesium Malate, Creatine, Citrulline Malate, Milk Thistle, Molybdenum, Selenium, Methionine, TMG, SAMe, Vitamin C, Fisetin, D-Ribose
