GlyNAC For Glutathione Support

If you have looked at these blogs in even a casual way, you would notice that I talk a lot about glutathione and its importance in health from just about every way you could experience or measure it.  We have experimented with different ways of increasing glutathione, including LifeWave Glutathione Patches, liposomal glutathione and over the last decade or so, a combination of NAC and ALA in caps.   

Some interesting research project out of Australia indicates that better than the just NAC would be NAC plus glycine.  The researchers found the following improvements in older adults included:

RBC-GSH  (red blood cell glutathione)

OXS (oxidative stress) in mitochondria

Inflammation

Endothelial function

Insulin and glucose balance

Gait speed

Grip Strength

6-minute walk test

Cognitive Tests

Body Fat Decrease

Genomic health

That is an impressive list for just one supplement.

At OvitaminPro, we have one product that has both NAC and glycine.

Pure Encapsulations NAC + Glycine Powder

If you prefer capsules, you will need two different supplements.

Thorne Glycine 250C

BetterGenix NAC 500 Mg

Personally, I am still going to add ALA to the mix just to be sure. The list for ALA benefits is similar to NAC and they seem to compliment each other.

Protocol for Life Alpha-Lipoic Acid 250 mg
