Dr. Robert Keller MD, MS, FACP, AAHIV recently presented the results of a Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Crossover clinical study at a conference held by the American Academy of Anti-Aging in Washington, D.C.
Clinical results documented an average increase of 292% in intercellular Glutathione levels for persons taking MaxGXL for 60 days. Amazingly, the same report showed an average increase of 46% of DHEA and 40.8% for IGF-1, both markers related to levels of human growth hormone, the indicators of true biological age. Furthermore, TNF improved 37%. TNF (Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha) is one of the three most significant markers of cellular inflammation.
The benefits of taking MaxGXL include the following:
Improved energy.
Better quality of sleep.
Improved mood.
Improved mental focus.
Decreased aches and pain.
In an unrelated study, researchers recently discovered that Centenarians between the ages of 100 to 105 years of age have Glutathione levels similar to 30-50 year old well, physically fit, normals.
Does increased Glutathione levels in your body help you live longer? Given the choice, I think I would rather have an ample supply of Glutathione in my body than be Glutathione deficient.

Lose Fat and Keep Lean Muscle MassThe discovery of Leptin resistance is a giant step forward in our understanding of how we gain and lose fat. Before this discovery it was believed that fat was just the way our body stored unused calories. Most believed that losing weight was a simple solution of eating less and exercising more to burn stored fat.
Recent discoveries have proven that most fad diets do not address the root cause of weight gain. The low-carbohydrates, the Atkins, Zone, and South Beach diets got it all wrong. Losing fat is not about eating certain proportions of fats and carbs. It is about Leptin—the hormone that controls our fat gain and how we burn and lose excess fat.
New research reveals that fat is not some inert mass stored in squashy bulges in all the wrong places in our body, but it is an active organ that produces its own hormones.
Leptin is the primary hormone generated by fat cells that is supposed to suppress our appetite and increase our metabolism rate when our body is functioning correctly. If this system is not working as it should then we can suffer from a specific hormonal imbalance now known as Leptin resistance.
This remarkable discovery was made at the Rockefeller University in 1994. Shortly thereafter, the University of Minnesota spent seven years perfecting a formula that controls our body’s production of Leptin. The University of Connecticut conducted a double-blind study on the effectiveness of this formulation that was named MaxWLX—weight loss accelerator.
Researchers now know why dieters who lose 30 or so pounds of weight often gain it all back plus an additional 5 pounds or more within a relatively short span of time. The production of Leptin by fat cells signals the brain to either store fat or to burn it. Leptin controls our metabolism and the rate that we burn fat. If our production of the Leptin hormone is out of balance then we stack on pounds. This condition is Leptin resistance, and usually occurs after a combination of years of overeating and a lack of exercise.
Fat around the waist is unhealthy and can lead to Heart Disease, High Blood Pressure, Diabetes, Breast Cancer, Colorectal Cancer, Gallbladder Disorders, and Metabolic Syndrome.
If you have tried in vain to lose that bulging belly fat, if you have fallen off every fad diet you have tried, if your determination to lose weight has been hampered by sugar and starchy food cravings then it is not because you have low will-power or lack determination, it is due to your Leptin levels that are out of balance.
MaxWLX can restore Leptin levels to normal and free you of “yo-yo” dieting, food cravings, and with endless struggles of trying to lose weight by starving yourself.
You can take charge of your excess body fat, out of controlled food cravings, and a sluggish metabolism with MaxWLX weight loss accelerator.
MaxGXL can help restore your Leptin balance and speed up your metabolism to burn unwanted and unhealthy body fat and eliminate food cravings when used together with healthy eating practices and moderate exercise.

Research has shown that glutathione (MaxGXL glutathione enhancer) helps stabilize the lung's response to inflammation in asthma models, while increasing the body's production of T-cells involved in immune response. Scientists believe that glutathione might help the body naturally reduce the inflammatory response that leads to heightened allergy symptoms.
If you are one of the millions of individuals who enjoy spring and summer with some trepidation, relief might be closer than you think. The nutritional sciences are constantly discovering new ways to improve the quality of life without drugs and synthetic chemicals.
During an allergy attack, white blood cells produce billions of molecules that scour the body in search of mast cells.
Once they have been located, the two types combine to form one cell. Once this merger has occurred, they newly formed cells gradually begin to secrete histamine.
Quercetin (a component of MaxGXL) is a bioflavonoid that works by stabilizing mast cells, thus preventing them from releasing excess histamine into the bloodstream. It is histamine that promotes the sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, and other symptoms associated with allergies. Stabilizing the cells that produce histamine has a powerful effect on how much histamine circulates throughout the body.

NEW YORK, March 03 (Reuters) -- Maintaining healthy levels of a peptide called glutathione may play a "pivotal" role in slowing the progression of AIDS, researchers say.
"People with HIV who have lower glutathione levels (also) have a much lower probability of surviving over the course of three years than do people with normal glutathione levels," concludes Stanford University School of Medicine geneticist Dr. Leonard Herzenberg.
Glutathione (GSH) is a molecule involved in a range of normal cell activities, including cell division and the clean-up of intracellular toxins. But a low glutathione level effectively "decreases cell survival, alters (immune system) T cell functions, and increases HIV replication" in HIV-infected cells, researchers say.
They add that GSH-level measurements may be an accurate marker of AIDS progression. Traditionally, physicians have assessed the condition of HIV-infected patients by measuring levels of CD4 cells, part of the immune-system. CD4 counts of 1,000 cells per milliliter (ml) of blood are normal in healthy, uninfected individuals. These numbers drop precipitously in those infected with HIV. CD4 levels under 200 cells/ml are thought to leave AIDS patients vulnerable to a number of life-threatening opportunistic infections.
Herzenberg's team divided 204 HIV-positive, (but AIDS-asymptomatic), patients into two groups. They gave one group glutathione and the other group a placebo.
Ninety-nine of the 204 Stanford study subjects had initial CD4 counts of under 200 cells/ml. Most of the 99 who received placebo (and thus maintained low glutathione levels) died within the three-year study period.
"In contrast," said Herzenberg, "of the 28 people who started the study with low CD4 counts but maintained normal glutathione levels, 23 survived. In other words, about 80% of these people survived, even though their CD4 cell counts indicated their survival was unlikely."
Herzenberg believes "glutathione levels matter to patient survival," and the study says clinical measurements of those levels "emerges as a powerful yardstick for predicting survival in HIV infection."
And Herzenberg believes that boosting GSH (glutathione) levels can keep AIDS patients healthier longer. The study "provides the first clear indication that GSH deficiency plays a pivotal role in determining how quickly the final stages of HIV disease progress." Herzenberg says clinical trials assessing impact of glutathione administration on long-term HIV patient survival is the next logical step in research on the subject.

We Cannot Live Without Glutathione"Glutathione is a substance, the levels of which in our cells are predictive of how long we will live. There are very few other factors which are as predictive of our life expectancy as is our level of cellular glutathione. We literally cannot survive without this antioxidant." - Earl Mindell, R. Ph., Ph.D.
"No other antioxidant is as important to overall health as glutathione. It is the regulator and regenerator of immune cells and the most valuable detoxifying agent in the human body. Low levels are associated with hepatic dysfunction, immune dysfunction, cardiac disease, premature aging, and death." - The Immune System Cure, Lorna R. Vanderhaeghe and Patrick J.D. Bouic, Ph.D.
"Without glutathione, other important antioxidants such as vitamins C and E cannot do their job adequately to protect your body against disease." - Breakthrough in Cell Defense, Allan Somersall, Ph.D., M.D., and Gustavo Bounous, M.D. FRCS(C).Glutathione is a tri-peptide of the amino acids cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid. A deficiency of glutathione can cause hemolysis (destruction of red blood cells, leading to anemia) and oxidative stress. - [PDR Medical Dictionary. Spraycar. 1999]"Without glutathione, other important antioxidants such as vitamins C and E cannot do their job adequately to protect your body against disease." - Breakthrough in Cell Defense, Allan Somersall, Ph.D., M.D., and Gustavo Bounous, M.D. FRCS(C).
Dr. Lombard points out in his book, "The Brain Wellness Plan," that Glutathione is one of the most powerful antioxidants in the body. Depressed glutathione levels are associated with the increased generation of free radicals found in Parkinson’s patients, for example, and contributes to further brain cell death." - Excerpts from the Willner Window Radio Show: Program aired on 5-3-98

Glutathione is Vital to your HealthAs we age, there is a precipitous drop in Glutathione levels. Lower Glutathione levels have been implicated in many diseases associated with aging. Journal of Clinical Epidemiology 47: 1021-28 1994 Antioxidants are well documented to play vital roles in health maintenance and disease prevention. Glutathione is your cells' own major antioxidant. Biochemical Pharmacology 47: 2113-2123 1994 Glutathione plays a role in eliminating many carcinogens as well as maintaining immune function. Cancer Letters 57: 91-94 1991 Strong muscular activity, such as that experienced by athletes, generates oxy-radicals (free radicals) leading to muscle fatigue and poorer performance. Glutathione neutralizes these radicals. Sport Medicine 21: 213-238, 1996In the annual Review of Biochemistry 52: 711-780 1983 Lester Packer, Ph.D., writes that maintaining high levels of Glutathione is critical for life and that low glutathione levels are a marker for death at an early age. Glutathione diminishes as we age.Glutathione detoxifies many pollutants, carcinogens, and poisons, including many in fuel exhaust and cigarette smoke. It retards damage from radiation such as seen with loss of the ozone.
Researchers have found that people over the age of 60 who have high blood levels of Glutathione have fewer illnesses, lower cholesterol and blood pressure and healthier weights than people with lower levels.
People over 69 with low blood levels of Glutathione are more likely to have diabetes, arthritis and heart disease. Glutathione truly is an amazing anti-oxidant, immune booster and detoxifier.

Living Longer
A high blood Glutathione level has been correlated with long life span in elderly human beings (Lang, 2000). The Lang study compared ill to healthy adult humans and demonstrated that "A decrease in Glutathione is a risk factor for chronic diseases that may be used to monitor the severity and progress of the diseases". As we get older there is a tendency for the antioxidant system to become depleted, but the relationship between Glutathione and antioxidants such as vitamin C, remains constant (Lenton, 2000). There is a direct correlation between Glutathione and vitamin C in lymphocyte cells throughout life.
Glutathione levels in blood components can be monitored. Glutathione studies may be a measure of prevention, as well as a monitor of the progress of serious illness (Lang, 2000).
Parkinson’s Disease
Glutathione levels in cells are diminished in Parkinson's disease as well as other neurologic diseases. Infusion of Glutathione has been shown to improve many of the symptoms of Parkinson's disease in a clinical trial (Sechi, 1996). While it is not possible to predict reversal of Parkinson's symptoms, many patients have enjoyed improvement after the infusion of Glutathione in two months. I have seen improvement with shorter schedules and in combination with nutrient building blocks. Article by Tim Guilford MD
