GSH + NGF - Best Tasting Brain Detox Smoothie
Today I show you a stellar combination of supplements to increase your glutathione, which is the body's master antioxidant capable of detoxing heavy metals, drugs, and other toxins.

NAC works to raise GSH levels far better than oral glutathione supplements primarily because reduced glutathione is an endogenous antioxidant that is best produced by the body from raw materials: the amino acids L-cysteine, glutamic acid, and glycine. 2 of the 3, L-cysteine and glycine, are rate-limiting nutrients for GSH production. NAC, or N-acetyl-L-cysteine, provides your body with valuable L-cysteine to increase glutathione production. Glycine is also valuable in this equation. The body synthesizes GSH in a two-part process: 1) L-cysteine links with glutamic acid by means of glutamate cysteine ligase, resulting in gamma-glutamylcysteine (GGC); 2) glycine is attached by means of glutathione synthase.

Research has shown that GGC converts to 5-L-oxoproline and is excreted in the urine when there is not enough glycine available to complete the transition to GSH.
