Causes of Glutathione Depletion: Aging Chronic stress Poor diet (low in sulfur-rich foods) Toxin exposure (pollution, alcohol, drugs) Certain diseases (diabetes, HIV, liver disease) How to Boost Glutathione Levels: Diet: Sulfur-rich foods (garlic, onions, cruciferous vegetables) High-quality protein (whey protein, eggs, lean meats) Foods rich in selenium (Brazil nuts, fish) and vitamin C (citrus fruits, berries) Supplements: Liposomal glutathione (better absorption) N-acetylcysteine (NAC) A precursor to glutathione Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) Recycles glutathione Lifestyle: Regular exercise (moderate intensity) Adequate sleep Reducing toxin exposure Medical & Cosmetic Uses: Used in IV therapy for detox, immune support, and chronic illnesses
