Role of glutathione in Fibromyalgia treatment

Fibromyalgia is a disease where the person suffering from it undergoes severe pain and stiffness in the muscles, joints and the connective tissues of the body, like the ligaments and tendons. These symptoms are also accompanied by severe fatigue which is due to loss of sleep. Due to loss of sleep, the repair of the bodily tissues does not take place in the bodies of the Fibromyalgia patients.

The exact cause of this disease is not known. However the following are the risk factors for developing fibromyalgia:

  • Presence of a family history of depression.
  • Persons with low thyroid functions.
  • Women are more likely to develop this disease. Two-thirds of fibromyalgia patients are women.
To fight against fibromyalgia, it is essential to make the body free of toxins, allergens and stress. Strengthening the body’s immune system is equally important, so that, the body resistance is built up to fight diseases. The bodily tissues which are damaged, also needs to be rebuilt.
Intake of high-tech nutrition, have proved to be helpful in controlling fibromyalgia. The body needs to have an increased level of glutathione to fight against this disease. Glutathione is the body’s own immune booster, master antioxidant and detoxifier. Studies have suggested that with increased glutathione levels in the body, many of the symptoms of fibromyalgia seem to have disappeared.

Taking extra glutathione supplements orally to increase the production of glutathione in the body is not of much help, as the stomach breaks down the glutathione and thus it is not able to get to the bloodstream.

MaxGXL helps people suffering from fibromyalgia to increase the level of glutathione in the body naturally, by helping in accelerating its production by the body cells. MaxGXL also provides more energy and helps to overcome fatigue due to fibromyalgia.
