You may already know that glutathione (GSH) is considered the most important antioxidant in the human body. GSH is your body’s major line of defense against free radicals and oxidative stress.
With strong levels of glutathione, your body is equipped to fight these free radicals and maintain homeostasis and optimal health. Unfortunately, GSH levels decrease as we age, and it becomes harder for our bodies to keep up with free radical production. Luckily, there are lots of ways to increase your glutathione to compensate for that loss. Today we will focus on the dietary supplements available on the market for increasing glutathione and those with similar effects.
Competition
Let’s look at some of the competition, shall we?
Acetyl-L-Carnitine
Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR) is another amino acid that is believed to boost brain function. Unlike the above-mentioned amino acids, ALCAR is not associated with glutathione production. Instead, it is active within mitochondrial functions. It can also cause uncomfortable side effects, such as nausea and upset stomach.
Acetyl-L-Tyrosine
Tyrosine is yet another amino acid used as a supplement. It is thought to regulate mood, increase alertness, and help people focus. Tyrosine is utilized by the body in the synthesis of dopamine, adrenaline, norepinephrine, thyroid hormones, and melanin. The effectiveness of supplemental tyrosine isn’t substantiated, and it can negatively affect certain pharmaceuticals.
NAD+
NAD+ supplements are supposed to slow aging, boost energy, improve memory, and increase ATP production. NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme produced naturally in the body. NAD+ supplements are intended to help people maintain healthy levels of NAD+. More research is needed to fully understand NAD+ boosters and their effects on the body. Thankfully, you can increase your NAD+ levels naturally by eating foods containing NAD precursors such as tomatoes, avocados, cabbage, grapes, and turkey. Exercise is another way to boost your NAD+ levels naturally. Our Brand new NMNH has also been shown in studies to boost NAD+ level by up to 25 times more than regular NMN.
Glutathione
Let’s try taking straight glutathione. You already know it’s good, so let’s get that goodness in you. Many options for this dietary supplement are currently available on the market. It makes sense that depleted glutathione would be best treated with supplemental glutathione. Unfortunately, glutathione taken orally has proven to be completely ineffective at raising cellular GSH levels. (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3162377/)
Cysteine
Maybe glutathione won’t work, but what about its ingredients? GHS is synthesized using three non-essential amino acids: glycine, cysteine, and glutamic acid. It is logical to assume that increasing the body’s access to these amino acids will promote GHS production, and that is true. Especially in the case of cysteine, which is typically the first to deplete. Cysteine supplements are great, but because the body recognizes pure cysteine as an extremely valuable commodity, it hoards the cysteine in the stomach and intestines, making glutathione synthesis possible in only those cells.
NAC
NAC (N-acetyl cysteine) is a much more effective way to increase your body’s cysteine levels than straight cysteine supplements. As cysteine levels increase, so does the production of GHS. Whereas cysteine supplements have shown little to no improvement in GHS levels, NAC has a bioavailability of around 6%. However, the available NAC is used mostly within the liver, leaving only tiny amounts for the plasma—the place where it can do the most good.
NACET - Neuro-NAC
With N-acetylcysteine ethyl ester (NACET), scientists finally got cysteine supplementation right. It is readily absorbed, 60-80% bioavailable, lipophilic (meaning it is fat soluble as well as water soluble), and works its way directly into your plasma, allowing it to travel throughout your body. It is even able to cross the blood brain barrier, offering protection to your brain and eyes as well as every vital organ within your body. As NACET increases plasma cysteine levels by 400-800%, it also improves GSH production by 250%. Amazingly, those benefits are seen at a dosage that is 10 times lower than that required with NAC.
Not Just Glutathione
Nutri Neuro-NAC supplies you with the additional cysteine you need to amp up your body’s production of the master antioxidant, glutathione. But it doesn’t stop there. We take our supplement a step further with glycine (for GSH synthesis), selenium (another powerful antioxidant), and molybdenum (a strong, essential detoxification mineral). This miraculous supplement supports heart health, cellular health, respiratory function, glucose regulation, brain function, and detoxification within the liver.* This supplement isn’t even remotely in the same playing field as its competitors. It is worlds above and beyond.
