Several days ago, I had the good fortune of delivering a wellness presentation in Camilla, Georgia, USA, emphasizing the importance and health benefits of an optimized immune system.
Typically, whenever I deliver one of these talks, it occurs that about ten percent of the audience has diabetes; usually Type 2. To my surprise and concern, more than FIFTY PERCENT of the attendees were diabetics! Can you believe that?! FIFTY PERCENT!
The make-up of the audience was largely elderly; not unusual at all. Still, the high number of diabetes sufferers in the audience underscores the tragedy of what is happening throughout North America. This dreadful disease is pandemic!
When I asked the general audience if they thought that the health of their immune defenses would make a a difference in how they coped with their respective ailments, including diabetes, they all acknowledged that it would. Yet, none of them had any real idea of how to directly make their body's defenses more healthy. Thus, I proceeded to explain the vital role of glutathione.
Glutathione--The Body's Powerful Protector and Immune System Fuel
Why is glutathione so important for diabetics? In simple terms, as expressed by one of the attendees, "to slow down the rust." Actually, she was right. Glutathione, or, GSH, as it is often referred to, is the body's most plentiful and powerful naturally-produced antioxidant, or, "cellular rust inhibitor." In other words, oxidative stress (biological "rust") can cause cellular components to age prematurely leading to early cell death and organ damage. Diabetics, unfortunately, have significantly higher levels of oxidation than non-diabetics.
In addition to that, diabetes sufferers have compromised immune defenses making them more susceptible to infections and other health challenges.
Glutathione acts to neutralize the adverse affects of oxidative stress while fueling immune system cells so that diabetes enjoy more energy, less oxidation and stronger bodily defenses. Put simply, you will feel much better!
To make this point, I shared a true-life experience of a 75-year "young" woman, with Type 2 diabetes who was recently taken off of her diabetic medication by her doctor, because she had made such marked improvement.
That woman, Mary D. of Moultrie, Georgia, USA, had been raising her glutathione levels with a science-based bioactive, undenatured whey protein for more than eight months. She is convinced that it has played a major role in helping her immune system.
This well-researched and documented cysteine delivery supplement is clinically-proven to raise and sustain intracellular glutathione levels, with no recorded adverse side effects.
Wayne Holloway is an asthma and bronchiectesis sufferer who has experience much improvement in his health and enjoys educating others on the importance of raising and sustaining their glutathione levels to optimize their immune systems.
