BTW, we are moving back to Sebastopol, soon, I hope, at least we are trying to. I think it was easier to leave then to return!!! Thanks again, will keep you posted!

Orthomolecular Medicine org has a lot of free info on Vitamin C, so you may want to check there as well. Thanks for the info about Thomas Levy – I’ve read some of his stuff through Ortho Med. but will check out his vids as well.

I have one more question, does one have to see a Naturopath to have Vit C given IV and B shots like you had done? There is no one in the area I live that does that! Is there another way that can help? I am reading about “Primal Panacea” by a cardiologist named Dr. Thomas Levy who recommends IV Vitamin C and has cured people from impossible situations by it’s use. He has also done research on nutrition and how toxic dental materials play a role in many immune challenges and how they have contributed to a new frame of reference for epidemic disease in this day. He is the author of “Curing the Incurable”. There are several videos on You tube about it. Good to see some Allopathic Docs doing something different!!!

Are the tests accurate Jini? I had blood drawn and was told that I was also allergic to peanuts, oaks (surrounded by forest of oaks, haha), alsom Maple, russian thistle and ragweed! All around me. I was going to go get tested at a place where they sell herbs,.They use a biofeedback machine to test to see what the body is lacking as well. Have you ever heard of this before? If so, do you feel these machines are accurate.

Thanks for all of your valued advice Jini and for this great site!!!

Re the hydrogen peroxide and salt… I don’t know. Go to this post and download the “detailed instruction manual” and I’ll bet that will give you the answer – and then let us know here please!

Also, Penny, yes, it is normal for your mother to cough a bit when she first tries the l-glutathione. Even for a while thereafter. She should take it slow at first and easy and if she feels irritation, I would stop. I also use l-glutathione in my nebuizer and it really works and helps my breathing when I am having asthma exacerbations. I add sterile sea water to the solution and if it is irritating, I just add more.
Suzanne, I hope you get better, I had to change everything and went to a naturopath as I was also very ill. I am a miracle, but I worked very hard, no sugar, (honey or fruit even for the first year because it can feed microbes my nd explained). All veges, fresh vege juices, quinoa almost every day, no coffee, only peppermint tea and Stevia was it. All organic foods and I got better. It wasn’t easy, but I was as willing as the dying can be, because I was. Hang in there, you will be ok, I am praying for you too…

Your experience is not uncommon for people who are trying to raise their glutathione, but are having trouble with Immunocal, which is a whey protein product. Are you lactose intolerant? People who are lactose intolerant often have trouble using whey protein (dairy.)

I have other suggestions, as per my postings above, and I have people w/Hep C using these products and pleased with what’s happening with them. Immunocal can raise glutathione 35.5% intracellularly (their own findings), whereas what I would suggest would raise your intracellular glutathione almost 300%, as per numerous peer reviewed Clinical Studies on PubMed, funded by the National Institutes of Health.

I am typing one fingered due to an injury, so please contact me directly at Cell 907-888-9437, 1 hr west of Pacific time zone, or by email kathy.tayloryokel@gmail.com. Thank you, Kathy

Two of the most popular nebulizers are the Omron NE-C25 and PARI Vios. I received the former yesterday and while it’s rather loud during operation, it seems to be doing the job.

Many thanks to the ones who posted information on glutathione. My COPD stabilized enough that I deferred investigation until now. Currently, I’m going to inhale diluted hydrogen peroxide (without fillers) for a week or two and will observe the results. It happens to be the least expensive solution as well. If there are no benefits, I plan to move on to glutathione. I may even give iodine a go in-between.

It’s a Drive Medical Power Neb II Nebulizer and it works great!

If you want more info call me, me phone number is listed above under another blog post with my name. “What is life without health?”

I understand nebulizers need a script too but was able to find some online that do not require it. Kindly please help!

Another thing that will help your body make the alkaline shift is lemonade. Science does not know why but it works as a paradoxical effect, the citric acid making your body shift to alkaline. But, there can be no sugar in the lemonade.

Likewise cayenne pepper will too but it has to be raw.

Then if you really want an energy boost, use a teaspoon full of cayenne pepper in your lemonade. More on that here….. http://www.speechmastery.com/cayenne.html

Do not drink after 3pm or you may be unable to sleep for much of the night. it will both give you energy and help your body become alkalotic, fighting the inflammation process resulting in the health problems mentioned above.

One MD I knew of prescribed this for stomach ulcers, way before the current knowledge of why it works.

Sometimes chronic bronchitis is misdiagnosed by doctors. It could be cough variant asthma or it could be chronic sinusitis. The above treatments work for these as well. If you can, get an asthma consult to find out for sure.

The difference is that the more traditional treatments will not work for these.

Good health to you.

For both pneumonia and chronic bronchitis, one more thing to add to your arsenal of treatments is alkalized water.

It can be obtained in a number of ways. There are expensive machines that convert the water (these work best for treating chronic bronchitis) and at the other end of the spectrum is baking soda. On the side of the baking soda box you will find the Drug Facts on how to use baking soda as a medicine.

These are not the cure all but they will help the other things you do to improve your health.

I have chronic bronchitis–mucous forms in my lungs but not much of it wants to come out, so I was constantly coughing and hacking and losing my voice for a moment mid-sentence until I could clear it. This had been going on for several years, and my lung function was down to 43%. When I got the Mannitol I decided that the easiest thing would be to make sure it was strained nice and fine, then took a very thin straw (the kind you would stir coffee with) and put it towards the back of my mouth and inhaled the powder so that it would quickly reach my lungs. I would keep a plate with the mannitol on it at home, and every hour or so I would inhale a bit more (I was probably inhaling about 1/2 gram at a time).

Within a day I could tell that I was having amazing results. I immediately scheduled another follow-up visit with my physician and he was astounded. My lung function had doubled to 86% in a single week, and the incessant wheezing, although not necessarily acute, at the back of my lungs had disappeared. I don’t think many people have figured this one out yet so if this helps a few people it will make me feel very, very good.

In the meantime, I have been taking the Glutathione in capsule form but realize that I should be inhaling it, so many thanks for the apothecure website, where I will order some!

Additionally, after making Xylitol my sweetener (and toothpastes. mouthwashes and chewing gum made with it) of choice for many years, I discovered that not only had it cured me of my gingivitis (and stopped any new cavities from forming). What I also realized was that it cured me of my most nasty allergies….I have 2 cats to which I was horribly allergic two years ago….runny nose, red swollen eyes, sneezing, etc. Gradually the runny nose and sneezing stopped and only putting my fingers near my eyes after holding them would bother me.

Now not even that happens any more. Then I read about the use of Xylitol in curing allergies and put it all together. I have been taking 40g of Xylitol in my diet for several years now, and I can’t say enough good things about it (the rule of thumb is 1 gram per day for every 3 lbs of body weight).

I am also now taking a supplement called policosanol which is a substance made up of a wider array of sugar alcohols. I have heard that there are some supplements with up to 24 sugar alcohols contained in them. Our bodies often stop manufacturing them naturally in the quantitites that they did while we were young, so some people react very very well to these substances, and they are not likely to have any negative effects on the body so it’s worth trying.

First, Jini…

I put some calls out and one hospital is indeed looking into doing a serious study about the use of Black Strap Molasses. The decision will be made by the winter time. The hospital is in Pennsylvania and is a Bloodless Medicine and Surgery Center.

As to the NAC / Max…Check out tric. There are a number of studies that show NAC helps with this. No doubt you have worked with someone dealing with this. Max is a far better way to get the NAC in my opinion. Even if you bought the various ingredients separate, it would cost about the same but be a whole lot more trouble than just going with the Max. Because of the age of many affected, it may require getting their doc on board.

Now on to the Max studies issue…..or lack of studies.

Please do not take this as anything more than a scientific opinion.

Max (which has NAC in it) is fantastic. I love it. It works wonderfully for me. I do not sell it nor do I profit from its sale. I highly recommend it with the exceptions mentioned below.

Unfortunately, there are no high level studies on MAX in the medical field. For one, it is because the only study was released after the author, Dr Keller died. So, although there is a study, it is not accepted as scientific proof. Oh yea, it is curiously missing some data usually in a high level study or even low level study for that matter. You mention studies. I am only aware of the one specifically on Max.

Also, since he has a bias, it is not as good as say if Cleveland Clinic did a trial. Hey, the doc I mentioned above did a clinical trial at LVH Hospital and it had a wonderful result for a study. He never reefers to it. He is now trying to get Cleveland Clinic to do a double blind placebo clinical trail.

I appreciate that you speak to doctors and the like. I not only speak to them, I teach them. Kind of a unique and humbling position, being a nurse and teaching doctors.

They call me when they do not know what to do and I am, after all, an expert in my field. Raising GSH is part of my expertise. As a consultant, I am required a very high standard of what acceptable research is. Max, as wonderful as it is and as much as I love it, does not meet that standard.

To put it in another light…here is how I would have to present it. Again, the focus is really on the n acetylcystiene side effects.

“The MaxGXL patent mentions several health states associated with reduced glutathione levels, however Max GXL has not been studied in the treatment of these diseases, and no disease treatment claims can scientifically or legally be made based on the Max GXL patent document.”

Also, neither my librarian nor I was able to find any clinical or scientific studies or peer reviewed medical articles specifically on Max GXL published in the National Library of Medicine (MEDLINE) when using the PubMed search.

Note: I have done scientific research, numerous times. Some of what I have been in was double blind placebo controlled studies. Yet, none of those studies means anything until they are published and reviewed and scrutinized by other experts in the field.

Also it was not possible to find ongoing or even future planned clinical trials or medical trials of MaxGXL. The study that is on the patent is an unpublished study of Max GXL.

Again, think Max is great. As a scientist, I cannot promote it with out the science, even though I use it myself. I can use marketing speak to sell it. But to present to doctors, there is nothing legit to share.

There are a ton of studies on NAC, the main ingredient in MAX. This is what we use in the hospital when someone has an overdose of acetaminophen as well as other things. To say NAC is and does there for Max is and does…well…it is not science. It is an assumption. It may very well but then, maybe one of the ingredients on its own is doing the same only with out the NAC.

NAC also works on pain although it is poorly studied. I know because of recommending it and hearing that it works in those who take it. I am wondering since it has such neurological benefits ( NAC that is) when high level studies are done, we may find that it helps with the delta receptors, the holy grail of pain management that has been hidden from mankind.

However….again, I love Max…..yet there is an ethical dilemma it presents.

How would you feel if you recommended it to someone and it harmed them? You would have to lock me away if I did that.

You are no doubt aware that it is contraindicated in organ transplant patients. It is also not approved for 16 and under unless under the doctors order. This is what I was told from the Max people. Yea, I used to sell it but no longer do.

It is not recommended for those on chemotherapy. I know this because I called the office and also spoke to some of the scientist about this. One of the perks of being a scientist.

What I was not told is….

It has some ingredients that can cause anapahlaxis (rarely according to literature) Not a problem unless you are the rare one. Imagine giving a supplement to someone and they died. I worry about this every time a give certain meds to patients and I know what to do.

One ingredient, D-Glucosamine is made from shellfish. Those with a shellfish allergy should be aware of the source of this ingredient.

Cordyceps is a mushroom.

If you know you are allergic to any of the ingredients of Max, it might be best to avoid it.

What scares me is when I see zealous promoters (not you) who say this (what ever they have, not just Max) is totally safe and in reality it has an ingredient that could kill a small child. Thank God for vigilant moms. This just happens this past year with a friend who was recommending a different supplement (again not Max). Turns out it had a wheat product in the ingredients. The child was deathly allergic to the ingredient. Again, this was not Max but it shows a flaw in the industry.

The Physician’s desk Reference (PDR), states that alpha lipoic acid (a MAX ingredient ) should be avoided by women who are pregnant or nursing. If you are a diabetic or have glucose intolerance, it should be used with caution. This is because of no long-term safety data is available.

If a diabetic and having challenges with glucose intolerance, there is a caution that supplemental alpha-lipoic acid can and may lower blood glucose levels. Use requires Blood glucose monitoring and adjusting anti-diabetic meds if necessary. to prevent possible hypoglycemia. ( Physicians Desk Reference safety statement on alpha lipoic acid.)

The Physician’s desk Reference (PDR), also warns that acteylcysteine (NAC, an ingredient in Max GXL) should be avoided in nursing mothers and should only be used in pregnancy on the advice of a physician.

Ironically, the competition, Immunocal is approved for all of the above (except transplants) and following. ( I like Immunocal also but it is way to expensive. However, in some states it is covered by Medicare exacta regs. I can get pediatrics and tube feeding orders paid for by insurance in my state)

NAC (the main Max ingredient) It should be used with caution in patients with chronic liver disease.

pre-term newborns

may be harmful if administered early in the treatment of critically ill patients.

The supplement may cause headaches and (rarely) kidney stones (prevented by the vitamin C which also helps the absorption in the Max)

NAC should be used with caution in those with a history ulcers.

Additionally, NAC may interact with some medications including nitrates, and carbamazepine.

Overdose can cause severe health ( I believe specifically heart ) problems and possible death.

Could produce a false-positive result in the nitroprusside test for ketone bodies used in diabetes.

In one animal study, pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) was caused by NAC. Although this may not be the same for humans, if you have this type of hypertension, NAC could cause a life threatening condition.

Again, so you don’t get upset with me, I take Max, I believe in it and think it is wonderful but as above, there is no evidence based medicine that it is anything more than the stories you hear.

For my wife, it did nothing. For me, it is the best thing since sliced bread.

There it is….my reply for those Mad about Max and my n acetylcystiene side effects concerns.

If you can afford it and it is not contraindicated, it is great, go get it.

PS. You are the first person I have ever spoke to from Alaska (that I know of). Going there is on my list of lifes things to do.

I can’t attach documents here, but since there are over 92,000 peer reviewed articles about glutathione and only about 44,000 about Vitamin C, the evidence is huge. In a nutshell, the research about the importance of glutathione to human health is overwhelming, and the Double BIind Placebo Controlled Clinical Studies prove our product raises GSH. Direct any further correspondence to my email as noted above.

Thank you, Kathy Taylor Yokel

First to Kathy,

Great. Post the studies right here. I did a check again and could not find any specific to the product I assume you have on PUB med or any of the major journals I read from time to time. Please post them here. Everyone will appreciate the science.

As to the patch and the crystals, I am not promoting them. However, although they are not in this country, their pitch sounds like they plagiarized it from your pitch. Only thing, they were out before yours was. One has been around for a long time. Again, I am not promoting them and they (dont know if they still exist) are from the other side of the world from the US.

Remember, you are preaching to the choir. I am already on board, lecture about it and teach it. The difference, I have no economical interest in promoting it as I do not make any money from promoting it. My interest is economically unbiased. My interest is only in the science.

I have personally used a few of the products and have got doctors to prescribe the ones that are in the physicians desk reference. The results were outstanding and had the doctors and nurses bewildered. One said she had never seen anything like it.

Now to Jini…

On Black Strap Molasses….

Unfortunately there are no studies so far. One Pennsylvania Hospital is thinking of doing a study since they use it with their patients.

Here is the best part…how many people do you know who are suffering with low red blood cell counts? Could this be a simple solution.

One word of caution…if you are allergic to sulfa drugs, get the un-sulfured. However, it may be that the sulfured helps with the increase in GSH as well which may be a part of how it works.

All the treatments and supplements, what if it was just increasing our intake of foods that were rich in sulfa compounds and we could boost our GSH just from our diet. We just do not know.

We give one table spoon black strap molasses mixed with one table spoon of peanut butter (protein) three times a day. I try to get the families to bring in organic if possible.

It can be taken however it is best liked.

Also, vitamin C, B6 B9 (folic acid) and B12. Here I have been after the docs to just give a B complex but for what ever reason, it does not happen.

Now, 200 mcg of selenium is being given. If you like Brazil nuts, two a day will do the trick.

As to kids, you will have to ask your grandmother. It was an old doc that first suggested this to me. He said it was given to kids years ago as a stool softener. He then told me about the iron. He said, “To bad it is not on our Formulary.”

One of my hightech babies was given it by her mom. It was a teaspoon in the morning when she was 1 1/2 years.

About the same time as this doc told me, I had my first bloodless patient with a blood count of 2.9 (13 to 15 is normal), the lowest I ever case managed. The EPO or Procrit was not working. I suggested it, got the doctors order it, ran out on my lunch break and bought it from a local grocery store, got the pharmacy to OK it and gave it. His count came up by 1 gm per/dL in less than 24 hours and in just two days he was starting to get some color (from being white as a sheet).

Even the hematologists were impressed. You need to understand something here. There is a joke, “Do you know the difference between God and a doctor? God doesn’t think he is a doctor.” Well there is a version that a doctor will tell, “Do you know the difference between a hematologist and God?” (at least at the hospitals where I have worked).

The next patient, a hour drive away (I was called in as consultant and Patient advocate) and she came up 1 gm a day every day till she hit 8 which was safe for her and as high as she ever got.

The rest of the stories are about the same or better.

If the teaching is up to me, unless it is critical (blood count less than 6.5) I tell the patients to only do this two to three days on and two to three days off. This prevents the body from getting used to getting the iron from this source so that it works less to get it from others. Remember, it is the other natural chemicals in foods that also have a part in our health.

To eat or not to eat at the same time…do not know. Generally, I tell patients not to do this within 2 hours of coffee. Coffee is great, esp if without cream or sugar. But it does affect the absorption of some things, so this is just a best guess. No science.

As to the science, there are studies that show that iron can improve the creation of GSH. So this is a win win with out the nasty side effects or risk of iron supplements.

Next….

Dr. Bruce Laird, PhD created ACF Complex, the allergy cold and flu complex. He is planning to market them. He does not have a website up. I will try to get his address and post it. I live an 1 1/2 hours away so will have to wait till I am in the area.

He has a bunch of interesting natural inventions. Many doctors use him. His breast cancer “cure” rate is slightly above my previous hospital employers. They were 80% and he was 82%. That is not what is interesting. One of his patients did both his treatment and the chemo at the hospital. Her CA numbers were within the safe zone in 6 weeks instead of the normal 13 of chemo therapy and she never lost her hair, she never got nauseated.

More on Dr. Bruce later.

Glutathione supplements that are transdermals, patches, intravenous, or glutathione pills do not raise glutathione intracellularly, where 97-98% of it is needed. This is where the mitochondria are; the ATP producers of the cells, as you know.

If you want to discuss this further, email me or call me: kathy.tayloryokel@gmail.com 907-457-8080, or 907-888-9437, one hour west of Pacific time zone. Medical professionals from diverse disciplines are embracing our glutathione enhancer because there is irrefutable science to prove its efficacy. The US Patent Office awarded it a Composition Patent, usually reserved for ethical drugs.

Good luck with improving your diet to help your health. Many people are already doing this and need assistance with the potholes in their nutrition to improve their health. Complex information cannot be given or digested in a 30 second TV commercial, hence the reason for our business model.

This forum is a valuable tool for people to get more information that they can then follow up on. I only post information that has Clinical Studies and peer-reviewed articles. For those who are open to improving their health, there is hope. Contact me.

Is your PhD friend selling the allergy lozenge anywhere? If not, is he willing to share the ingredients for people who want to make their own? Dr. Jonathan V. Wright does this with formulas he invents or discovers – he doesn’t bother with the clinical trial process, he just makes it available to his patients and sells the ingredients needed in his dispensary. When people find it works, they will tell tons of others!

best,
Jini

Am already familiar with your MLM product. Actually there are several Glutathione (GSH) boosting products on the market right now. One, a crystal that you use tape to your skin even claims to boost GSH.

As to not getting enough nutrients from food, well, that is a logical fallacy that is promoted by the MLM industry. Actually, there are no high level studies that prove or disprove how much we actually get from food.

Are foods depleted in nutrients? Absolutely according to the studies. But, as a scientist, I have to ask, who did the studies? What were the studies.

So how do we go about making a hypothesis?

We look at anecdotal evidence. In the hospital for instance we know that some foods will totally negate the effect of warfarin sodium (Coumadin). Hmmmm, foods are depleted but studies show that, at least in this case, they can mess up the medicine.

We look at black strap molasses. There may be only one other food that has more iron. There are no studies that says it will boost your iron count although Geissinger Health System is considering doing such a study. Even though it comes from the same sugar cane fields that have been growing sugar cane for generations it still works to boost iron stores.

How do we know. We give it to our patients who refuse blood and their counts come up. They come up drastically. They come up as good as and in many cases I have seen, even better and safer than when given the IV form or iron supplementation.

Even better, unlike the iron pills, which are one of the leading causes of poisoning in very young children and binding up older people with little absorption, this food serves as a stool softener while providing more absorbable iron and is safe for children.

The reason for the profound effect is phytochemicals. Supplements cannot include these. These are only in live foods and are fragile.

We also know that processed foods have lots of chemicals we need to get rid of. OOops. Eliminate the chemicals and you eliminate part of the problem.
http://www.glutathionediseasecure.com/detrimental-diet.html

Now, as to how good your product is.

Do you know what the best supplement to boost your glutathione is? By far, the absolute best, bar none, is the one you will take and the one you can afford.

If you will not take it, then it is of no value. If you can not afford it, then you will not take it.

Don’t get me wrong here. I believe in supplements. Especially for treating and as rescue medications. Especially using them instead of drugs. But in the hospital I see the side you never see.

I see what happens when people overdose on nutraceuticals.

I see what happens when people self medicate with supplements and get it wrong. It is not often but at least once a month. Remember, if they got into the hospital, it has to be bad.

And I have seen people die from the misuse of these (not yours).

Also, there is a credibility concern. In science, we need peer reviewed studies. I have done studies and my employers have done studies. But non of these are published by peer reviewed journals. This is because to have a high level study it needs to meet some serious requirements.

One PhD doc friend of mine created an all natural allergy lozenge that was clinically trialed at my hospital. I read the results and it was 100% successful. The requirements were that the patients could not have been on any allergy medication for the past six months.

I even interviewed some of the people.

Only thing, this study is worthless as it is not peer reviewed.

Curious but all of these products, studies or not, cost about $60-$75 per month. http://www.ulteriorhealth.com/2009/12/10/glutathione-gochi-maxgxl-natural-cures-and-common-sense/

Remember when things cost $19.95 on the TV. These companies are all about marketing, the right price point and making a new crop of MLM millionaires.
Sounds like you are on your way.

Feel free to contact me and tell me more. I love learning about GSH. I would be happy to add this to my list of ways to boost GSH.

But my money is on improving our dietary intake. Just starting to research it but it seems to make a lot of sense.

Good health to you.

Call me (907) 457-8080 or (907) 888-9437 to see about a Clinically proven supplement that raises glutathione intracellularly up to almost 300%. It is the precursors and co-factors (in a specific composition) that allow your cells to make glutathione, and this supplement is one of less than 15 in the country with a Composition Patent, which the US Patent Office awarded because it is so unique.

I live 1 hour west of Pacific time zone. Call 9am-10 pm. There are over 91,220 articles on PubMed now about the importance of glutathione, which begins to decline significantly at age 20.

I am new to this site. One of my specialties is respiratory health and have worked with high tech babies (all are on ventilators or breathing machines) and I have to say, the little science about what I am going to suggest is really positive.

So here is first the old complimentary alternative medicine and then the new. Only thing, I am just starting to research the new and do not have any data to present. But you can do the research yourself.

The old…

Everyone should know that the lungs and the mucous membranes are the only way to absorb glutathione. Otherwise, in the gut it is broken down and of little benefit. Yes, glutathione is used by doctors.

There are a few alternatives to glutathione that involve taking the cofactors.

On http://www.glutathionediseasecure.com/inflammation-in-the-lung.html you can find some of the options. Actually, using the various forms of cysteine (NAC or N-acetylcysteine is a supplement and a rescue med in the hospital and in asthma medications) does work good.

If you are taking it on your own, make sure and take vitamin C to prevent kidney stones.

I feel supplements are essential. Not a single patient in the hospital is not on some kind of supplement. Some of the doctors I have worked under even prescribe gum chewing and black strap molasses, yes, actual doctors orders in the hospital. And these are big teaching hospitals.

I believe there is a better solution.

The New…Which is actually the old repackaged

It has to do with diet.

By avoiding the pro-inflammatory foods and increasing the foods that boost glutathione and other nutrient needs, it may be possible decrease if not eliminate the respiratory problems some are facing.

I have just started the research but if interested, start by looking at the live raw food diet.

When I first heard this I was thinking, hmmmm, eating live raw vs dead raw chicken.

Actually, you can still eat dead animals. Only thing, you need to eat a 75% raw and live (uncooked) diet.

I put this out to all of my friends who are into the supplements. They said naaa then said that they had various raw food delicacies and they were fantastic. Things like unbaked apple pie and chocolate moose with out any milk. Everyone agrees that the were surprised.

More importantly, the health benefits were also there for those who started this kind of diet.

As to the supplements…there is a theory…unless as a treatment or as a rescue med, do not take them every day. A dependency builds up and then you cannot get the nutrients from foods as needed because they are so easily obtained from the supplements.

The raw food movement backed my theory up as they do not eat the same food for more than a few days in a row. Best case, only eat any one of several of your foods for the day once in seven days.

We will always need and benefit from supplements. However, there is a new weapon in the arsenal of disease fighting armaments. It is called raw food.

Good Health to you.

My mother has been helped profusely by the inhaled Glutathione. I guess after reading what has been posted here, she may be able to take it more often than 3 x a week. Nothing helped her asthma and emphesema for long until she was put on Glutathione by her natural doctor.

Due to the changes it makes for her on the days she takes this, I will ask her doctor if he will bump up the prescription to every day. After taking Glutathione, she actually can go 12 hours without her breathing meds. Her drugs have side effects which she could do without.

The Glutathione relaxes her as well which tends to lessen the asthma attacks.

Immunocal really helped me, increased my energy levels, made me feel more balance, however the product that really changed my life, totally, was the Refensal. It gave me almost immediate results that I could feel (I could breathe -hooray) and even though it doesn’t have all patents, the product has worked wonders for me and I am now seeing the same thing happen to a dear friend with COPD who is on oxygen 24/7. She was actually able to stop the oxygen for the first time in over a year for 6 hours, to play with her grandson! I am so happy for her. Refensal has been a gift, and honest there has been nothing that I have tried that has given me such results, so quickly. I can’t say enough good about it. You are also welcome to call me regarding Refensal at 530 605-3353 or you can read about it at http://www.naturalbalancecore@gmail.com/balance, click on Refensal at the top and then Clinical Cases.

Yes, “Ashes,” one of the precursors in our product is N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC), the rate limiting factor in glutathione production. We have other precursors and cofactors that help our product be preferentially absorbed through the intestinal walls. There is no glutathione in our product, because, as many of you know, glutathione taken orally is broken down and eliminated. Our product is the raw materials to allow your own cells to make glutathione.

Our product has a Composition Patent, very unusual in the supplement market, and Clinical Studies on humans to back up its claims. I’d be glad to discuss this further with anyone who wishes to know more. I’m in the Alaska time zone, one hour past Pacific time zone, 907-457-8080. Please only call between 9 am and 9 pm. Thanks. You really can’t eat your way to enough glutathione, or take fully formed glutathione and have it work efficiently for you. As we age, we make less and less glutathione, while at the same time, our oxidative stress is rising.

If any of you try Jan’s recommendations and get success (or not), please post here so others can benefit from your experience…

2 weeks after I started that product I added one more product for my breathing and the Doctor told me to nebulize it 4 times a day. The results were felt almost immediately. I was astonished at how fresh the air felt once again (like when I was 21 lol) I also joined this company as it is free to join through December 30 ( and I also get a discount). It is also a precursor to glutathione. This product is a miracle for me. I no longer require rescue inhalers every 6 hrs., no steroids or steroid inhalers! If I have to use my rescue it’s 1/2 dose watered down with hypotonic sea water, and now, most days, I don’t even need it. I can exercise. I am breathing at night, sleeping, no anxiety and this is honestly what helped me the quickest! This helped me more than any natural product I have ever tried in my life. I also wanted Inhaled Glutathione which is available at http://www.apothecure.com and other compounding pharmacies. My naturopath told me that she used it for asthma and it didn’t work for her. It works wonders for some however. I now believe that a precursor to stimulate the glutathione in my own body is most effective. You can purchase glutathione but it doesn’t as your body will simply digest it and it will be eliminated. Too many studies have been done on the subject. I even took NAC supplements but they didn’t work at all. Here is the site for the spray, please read the testimonials. I hope it’s ok to put the web site on here. If not, please excuse me. I just want everyone with this horrible illnes to get free from the devastating side effects of feeling like your suffocating all the time. Here it is: http://www.naturalbalancecore.com/balance

It is a bit expensive, it’s from Spain, created by a group of forward thinking physicans and one here in the USA. The good news is that it will be here in the USA soon!
