Glutathione IV Therapy
Glutathione IV therapy is a powerful antioxidant treatment that supports detoxification, immune function, and cellular repair by delivering glutathione directly into the bloodstream.
What Is Glutathione IV Therapy?
Glutathione is a naturally occurring antioxidant made from three amino acids: glutamate, cysteine, and glycine. It is found in every cell of the body and is primarily produced in the liver.
Glutathione plays an important role in supporting the body’s natural detoxification processes, protecting cells from oxidative stress, and supporting immune and liver function.
How Does It Work?
Glutathione helps neutralize free radicals and supports the body’s ability to process and eliminate toxins and environmental exposures. It also plays a role in cellular repair and normal metabolic function.
Levels of glutathione may decrease with aging, stress, poor nutrition, and environmental exposures, which may contribute to increased oxidative stress in the body.
Why Is This Therapy Used?
When taken orally, glutathione is broken down during digestion, which can reduce absorption. IV administration delivers glutathione directly into the bloodstream, allowing for greater availability to the body compared to oral supplementation.
Because glutathione can lose effectiveness when mixed with saline, it is typically administered as a slow IV push.
