Glutathione – a vital protein in our body

Glutathione is a very essential protein present in our bodies. Our survival often depends on it. Therefore it is very important for us to have knowledge about what it is and where and how it is produced in our body. If glutathione was not present in our bodies, most of our vital organs and specially the lever would have been adversely affected by the toxins and other impurities which enter our body through the food we eat, water we drink and also the air that we breathe in. Glutathione also builds resistance in our bodies against viruses and bacteria.

First of all let us discuss what glutathione is. Glutathione is a peptide made of three protein building blocks, known as amino acids, which are glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine. It is produced by the body cells naturally.

Glutathione is a master antioxidant and also a detoxifier. It also strengthens the body’s immune system and helps the body to fight against various illnesses. It protects the red and white blood cells. It also prevents early aging.

Deficiency of glutathione affects our nervous system. Lower levels of glutathione leads to weakening of the immune system, thus it makes the body more prone to disease. Also the energy level comes down.

Old age is one of the basic reasons for reduced levels of glutathione in the body. Intake of glutathione orally does not help because it is not digested by the intestine. MAXGXL helps to increase the glutathione level in the body by accelerating its production by the body cells in a natural way.

Good health and longevity is ensured by high levels of glutathione in the body. Low level of glutathione lead to lower energy level and a number of diseases as the immune system is weakened. Therefore for our overall good health, we are very much dependent on this vital protein - glutathione.
