The mother of all anti-oxidants... glutathione [taken from collective evolution]
We have all heard of antioxidants, but
have we heard of the mother of all antioxidants? One that is the secret
to prevent cancer, heart disease, aging, neurological issues and more?
This single antioxidant has been studied in great depth yet most of us
know nothing about it and many doctors have no idea how to address the
epidemic of its deficiency in humans.
We are of course talking about
Glutathione (pronounced “gloota-thigh-own.”) This is a powerful
detoxifier and immune booster and is crucial to a healthy life. Although
the body does make some of its own Glutathione, poor food quality,
pollution, toxic environments, stress, infections and radiation are all
depleting out bodies glutathione.
What is Glutathione?
Glutathione is a simple molecule
produced naturally in the body at all times. It’s a combination of three
building blocks of protein or amino acids — cysteine, glycine and
glutamine.
The best part of glutathione is that is
contains sulfur chemical groups that work to trap all the bad things
like free radicals and toxins such as mercury and heavy metals in our
body then flush them out. This is especially important in our current
world of heavy metal bombardment.
Where Can You Get Glutathione?
The body makes it, but it’s often not enough in our strenuous environment. Here are some food sources that either contain glutathione or its precursors to help the body produce more.- Broccoli
- Brussels sprouts
- Cabbage
- Cauliflower
- Avocados
- Peaches
- Watermelon
- Cinnamon
- Cardamom
- Turmeric (Curcumin)
- Tomatoes
- Peas
- Garlic
- Onions
- Red peppers
Notice they are all healthy foods we
often don’t get enough of? This is another big issue with our diets. We
consume a lot of junk, meat, dairy and processed foods, items that
clinically have been proven to be the number one causes of heart disease
and illness yet we consume them in huge quantities. The key is to
limit these and eat a lot of fresh, lively foods that provide nutrients
and don’t ask the body to perform a mega job to digest.
You can also increase your exercise as
glutathione production increases when you exercise. Breathing and
sweating are also great ways to get rid of toxins in the body.
Glutathione Protects Against Chronic Illness
What makes glutathione so important and
powerful is that it recycles antioxidants. When your body is dealing
with free radicals, it is essentially passing them from one molecule to
another. They might go from vitamin C to vitamin E to lipoic acid and
then to glutathione where they are cooled off. Antioxidants are recycled
at this point and the body can now regenerate another glutathione
molecule to go back at it again.
Glutathione is crucial for helping your
immune system fight chronic illness as it acts as the carrier of toxins
out of your body. Like a fly trap, toxins stick to glutathione and they
are carried to the bile into the stools and out of the body. Glutathione
is also powerful enough that it has been shown to help in the treatment
of AIDS greatly. The body is going to get in touch with oxidants and
toxins, the more we can deal with those the better our body will be at
staying strong, this is why glutathione is so important.
9 Final Tips
Dr. Mark Hyman has given 9 tips to increase your Glutathione levels. Check them out!
1. Consume sulfur-rich foods. The
main ones in the diet are garlic, onions and the cruciferous vegetables
(broccoli, kale, collards, cabbage, cauliflower, watercress, etc.).
2. Try bioactive whey protein. This
is great source of cysteine and the amino acid building blocks for
glutathione synthesis. As you know, I am not a big fan of dairy,
but this is an exception — with a few warnings. The whey protein MUST
be bioactive and made from non-denatured proteins (“denaturing” refers
to the breakdown of the normal protein structure). Choose
non-pasteurized and non-industrially produced milk that contains no
pesticides, hormones, or antibiotics. Immunocal is a prescription
bioactive non-denatured whey protein that is even listed in the
Physician’s Desk Reference.
3. Exercise boosts your glutathione levels and
thereby helps boost your immune system, improve detoxification and
enhance your body’s own antioxidant defenses. Start slow and build up to
30 minutes a day of vigorous aerobic exercise like walking or jogging,
or play various sports. Strength training for 20 minutes 3 times a week
is also helpful.
One would think it would be easy just to
take glutathione as a pill, but the body digests protein — so you
wouldn’t get the benefits if you did it this way. However, the
production and recycling of glutathione in the body requires many
different nutrients and you CAN take these. Here are the main
supplements that need to be taken consistently to boost glutathione.
Besides taking a multivitamin and fish oil, supporting my glutathione
levels with these supplements is the most important thing I do every day
for my personal health.
4. N-acetyl-cysteine. This
has been used for years to help treat asthma and lung disease and to
treat people with life-threatening liver failure from Tylenol overdose.
In fact, I first learned about it in medical school while working in the
emergency room. It is even given to prevent kidney damage from dyes
used during x-ray studies.
5. Alpha lipoic acid. This is a close second to
glutathione in importance in our cells and is involved in energy
production, blood sugar control, brain health and detoxification. The
body usually makes it, but given all the stresses we are under, we often
become depleted.
6. Methylation nutrients (folate and vitamins B6 and B12). These
are perhaps the most critical to keep the body producing glutathione.
Methylation and the production and recycling of glutathione are the two
most important biochemical functions in your body. Take folate
(especially in the active form of 5 methyltetrahydrofolate), B6 (in
active form of P5P) and B12 (in the active form of methylcobalamin).
7. Selenium. This important mineral helps the body recycle and produce more glutathione.
8. A family of antioxidants including vitamins C and E (in the form of mixed tocopherols), work together to recycle glutathione.
9. Milk thistle (silymarin) has long been used in liver disease and helps boost glutathione levels.

I wonder if we can still understand more than those lower animals... I wonder if we can react and adapt to unforeseen changes... I wonder if we can be as human as once upon a time we were... I wonder if we still can cry when sad or shocked...
I wonder if we can still understand and feel..
more than those lower animals...those 'goats'..
those who never washed before eating..
those who never built houses and iron gates..
those who never had rules and laws to follow...
those who keep good relationships with their breed..
I wonder if we can still react and adapt...
peacefully and lovingly with one another...
without breaking and fighting or throwing 'stones'..
and make peace within ourselves to unforeseen changes
without complains, or corruptions, without much laws and rules...
Where are there rules and laws governing these 'goats'?
I wonder if we can still be as humane...
yes, as once upon a time we all were...
I wonder what and how our hearts been filled with.....
I wonder where our inner wisdom and conscience been..
It's ironical if we were asked about this small question..
How long have we not hug our siblings or loved ones?
I wonder if we still can cry when sad or unhappy...
I wonder if we still can think well or have a 'human' heart...
I wonder if we still have that spark of love inside us?
If the answers are all YES... why are there still much tears?
Why are there still much fears? Why those meaningless killing each other?
Why? What had happened? Are we the we who we ought to be?????
Are we not better than those lower animals with tails?
Are laws and rules not set for protection and prevention?
Are we not more at ease or more understanding than before?
Are we not to be more kind, loving and helping one another?
Are we stuck in the 'DON'T KNOW' or 'DON'T CARE' or
'THAT'S NOT MY BUSINESS.. THAT'S NOT MY PEOPLE???'

12 nutritional benefits of sprouts for human health... taken from CUREJOY...
12 Nutritional Benefits of Sprouts for human health:
- High Nutritional Value: These fabulous foods enclose about thirty times the dietary worth of customary natural vegetables. The value of fiber and protein in beans, seeds and grains gets better when sprouted. Sprouts offer a potent source of minerals, vitamins, enzymes and antioxidants and are profusely loaded with oxygen. These features are advantageous in combating anaerobic bacteria and viruses (the ones that cannot endure a milieu loaded with oxygen). Nutritionists pronounce that the sunflower seed sprouts and pea sprouts are at the apex as far as the nutrition list is concerned. Sprout grains reduce the effect o phytic acid and other anti-nutrients which inhibit you from completely sucking up the minerals in the food consumed by you. Sprouted grains enclose twofold quantity of folate (vitamin B9) and vitamin B6 and four times the amount of niacin.
- High Satiety: Given that sprouts are stumpy in calories and soaring in essential nutrients, hence consumption of sprouts assists in holding back the undue and untimely desire for food.
- Rich in Fiber: The fiber content of sprouts facilitates in cleansing your digestive system so that your regular bowel habits are facilitated.
- Abundant in Antioxidants: The antioxidants present in the sprouts facilitate the elimination of poisonous substances from the body. The latter play a role in configuration and development of malignant cells. Thus sprouts can alleviate all sorts of malignancies even if you have a strong record of malignancy in your family unit.
- Safe Diabetic Food: Sprouts possess a low glycemic index meaning thereby that consuming them will not elevate your blood sugar levels; and in case you suffer from diabetes mellitus they are a harmless bet for you.
- Great Calcium Source: When compared with milk as a source of dietary calcium, alfalfa sprouts serve as a better source. This is because milk holds an elevated amount of unwholesome fats and acids which pull out calcium from your bones in order to reduce the effect of those acids. You could very well safe-guard yourself in opposition to osteoporosis by making use of the plant estrogens found in sprouts. They make an effort to amplify bone configuration and density
- Protects against Cancer: Canavanine is the name of an amino acid found in alfalfa sprouts. It helps safe-guard in opposition to leukemia, malignancy of colon and pancreas.
- Lowers Cholesterol: A constituent of alfalfa is known as saponin.Not only does it assist in decreasing the level of bad cholesterol in the blood but also defends the heart.
- Anti Aging Properties: As we all are aware of the fact that unbound radicals are the topmost cause of getting older; so sprouts make easier for you to decrease the quantity of free unbound radicals in your body to avert early and untimely aging. As a result, you get rid of wrinkles too because they are also an indication of early aging.
- Free of Pesticides: Sprouted grains are loaded with delightful and very healthy nutrients and they are frequently known as breathing foods. They are biologically developed free of insect repellants and bug killers.
- Variety of Nutrients: Sprouts improve multipurpose power and liveliness in you by introducing novelty in your bodily system.
- Amazing Protein Source: Sprouts are best for folks who are absorbed in very stressful and challenging work such as body building physical exertions because they are the best source of plant protein which are needed by them in hefty amounts. Sprouted foods frequently have their protein levels at their crest.
Back again to health... I always mention about sprouts being the SUPREME healthy foods fulls of life and enzymes... Can one imagine how a small seed when given time and growth will grow to a giant tree, tall and strong? And it all comes from the sprouting game... Sprouts are wonderful immune boosters and high in almost every good things... enjoy it raw or blend them into your smooties...
Sprouting is the practice of germinating seeds (especially Pulses (legumes; pea family) like chickpea, mung bean and soybean (bean sprouts), etc.) to be eaten raw or cooked.
Sprouted foods are a convenient way to have fresh vegetables for salads, or otherwise, in any season and can be germinated at home. They are a prominent ingredient of the raw food diet and common in Eastern Asian cuisine.
Sprouts are said to be rich in digestible energy, bioavailable vitamins, minerals, amino acids, proteins, and phytochemicals, as these are necessary for a germinating plant to grow..... from CUREJOY...
