Glutathione Clinical Study

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 OGF (Original Glutathione Formula) 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 OGF (Original Glutathione Formula) 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 would rather have an ample supply of Glutathione in my body than be Glutathione deficient.

Leptin Resistance and Weight Loss

Lose Fat and Keep Lean Muscle Mass

The 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.

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. Get More Information.

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.

You 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.

Learn to take charge of your excess body fat, out of controlled food cravings, and a sluggish metabolism.

You 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.

Glutathione Helps Aids Survival

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.

Living Longer and Being Healthier

“We've found several ways to live an extra decade or two—in good health. The easiest and surest way: Increase your body's supply of Glutathione, a natural compound that is a tripeptide (combination of three amino acids).” —Dr. David Williams.

The anti-oxidant Glutathione is composed of the amino acids glycine, glutamic acid, and cysteine. Glutathione plays a major role in removing various toxic chemicals from the body. As a result, Glutathione levels in the body are reduced by stress, pollution, and exposure to heavy metals such as mercury, lead, cadmium, and the chemicals used in chemotherapy.

In animal experiments, increased Glutathione consumption increases longevity by about 40%. Glutathione is an antioxidant that reduces the effects of diseases linked to free radical damage. Low levels of Glutathione can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, cataracts, macular degeneration, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, the destruction of immune cells associated with AIDS, and inflammatory bowel disease. It is important to note that most diseases are preceded by Glutathione deficiency.

Living to 100 and Beyond

In a recent study, the Odense University in Denmark compared the levels of Glutathione in 41 Centenarians between 100-105 years old to that in 52 community controls between the ages of 60-79. They found that the mean Glutathione activity was significantly higher in Centenarians than in the group of younger elderly subjects, and that Centenarians with the best functional capacity tended to have the highest Glutathione levels.
