Other than the expense is there a downside or risk to IV Glutathione ?

I don't think so other than the very small risk of infection. It is the only reliably helpful thing that I've ever done but it only lasts temporarily for me.

Thank you Summer3.

Anyone else ?

Is glutathione contraindicated for any methylation defects ?

You might want to try making lipsomal glutathione if it is too costly or difficult for you to do the IV.

There ares are no downsides to glutatione. My doc gives it to his Lyme patients all the time.

Levels of glutatione can be boosted by eating natural whey.

Hi LuluBelle,
I'm very sensitive to glutathione. I've tried taking supplements but they were too strong and made me very ill. Dr. B put glutathione in an ultra violet IV treatment I was trying and I got very ill. I have detox issues! I did try the lipsomal glutathione and was able to tolerate a drop or two. It's been a while now.
My advice to is to go slow. I see Dr. N tomorrow at 9:00am.

You might also want to try glut suppositories. They're said to be more effective than oral liposomal.

I love, love, love Glutathione. Like Summer, it's the only things that makes me feel better.

I've tried: IV, suppository, oral, nebulized and transdermal cream.

I think one problem is if you have an allergy to sulfur.

Thank you all.

I think I will try a glutathione patch first. And true to my ways I will probably cut the patch down to start. Tiny dose and work up. Since I don't know how I will react I am afraid to jump in with an IV.

Carmen, you say natural whey. I use NOW brand whey (dutch chocolate - Mmmmm!)Is there something specific you mean by "natural" whey ?

I've heard that only the undenatured whey protein contributes to the production of glutathione.
