Glutathione
plays a significant role in the protection of the eyes from oxidative stress,
which leads to eye defect and eventually Blindness.
Previous studies have shown that
when faced with a lack of glutathione in the eyes, there is a greater chance of
Open-Angle Glaucoma, Macular Degeneration and Cataracts.
As
we get older, we are unable to see things as clearly and then we need reading
glasses. This is called presbyopia.
Your eyes create glutathione to protect against the oxidation that the sunlight produces according to Dr. Daria Davidson, a board certified medical doctor focusing on holistic medicine with 30 years of practice.
“Oxidative
stress occurs when there is an imbalance between the production of the reactive
oxygen species and the eyes’ biological systems being able to readily detoxify
the reactive intermediate and easily repair the resulting damage,” from
Wikipedia.
If you have free radicals from oxidative stress, you need an antioxidant to reduce the free radical—an oxidation reduction reaction.
Glutathione
donates and extra electron to accomplish this. This reducing environment is
preserved by enzymes and components like glutathione that maintain the constant
status of metabolic energy which is ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) in the
cell.
Mutation research in 2006 – The Role of Oxidative Stress in Glaucoma “Increasing evidence indicates that reactive oxygen species (free radicals” play a key role in pathogenesis (disease) of primary Open-Angle Glaucoma the main cause of irreversible blindness worldwide.”
Progress
in Retinal and Eye Research in 2003 “The high concentration of glutathione in
the lens in believed to protect structural proteins and enzymes for proper
biological functioning.
However , aging lens are under oxidative stress, lens show an
extensively diminished size of glutathione pool.
Premature
ageing occur as a result of low level of glutathione, the level of this
coenzyme decreases when toxins accumulate in the body, but with the help
of glutathione accelerator drugs, the level can be increased.
Glutathione
accelerators contains nutrients, herbs and antioxidants that supports and boost
the coenzyme production thereby helping it detoxify the body and release the
toxins into the blood stream from where they are eliminated by the kidney and
liver.
The
reaction that detoxifies the body is usually accompanied by symptoms such
as Muscle cramps, dizziness, constipation, brain fog, headaches, sore
throat, fever, joint and muscle discomfort. Other symptoms, that
are not associated with detox such as runny nose, hive, shortness of breath are
considered allergic, the supplement Should be discontinued when this happens
Cells under
particular stress sch as the liver cells, have a very high amount of
glutathione because they are the wash machine of the body.Lungs are also high
in glutathione to handle the toxins that we breathe Read more.
