Mindsip insights from this episode:
Utilize topical glutathione for superior cellular absorption
A new dextrin-based technology delivers glutathione directly into your cells through the skin, which is claimed to be more effective than an IV.
Avoid glutathione for hair loss and thickening solutions
Despite its many benefits, topical glutathione has not been shown to help with hair loss or thickening, though it may stop the progression of graying hair.
Combine telomere-lengthening compounds with low oxidative stress for maximum effect
Telomere-lengthening compounds like cycloastragenol work much more effectively when oxidative stress is near zero, making them a powerful combination with glutathione.
Apply glutathione post-workout to enhance recovery
Apply glutathione after exercising, not before, to accelerate recovery without blunting the beneficial stress response needed for adaptation.
Balance antioxidant intake to avoid harmful zero oxidative stress
Over-consuming antioxidants to the point of having zero oxidative stress is harmful because the body's core energy production relies on the oxidative-reductive reaction.
Recognize detox reactions as signs of healing
Experiencing stomach pain in the first two weeks of using topical glutathione can indicate a high level of toxins (LPS) in your gut, which resolves as your body heals.
Source vitamin C from tapioca for clean skincare
The vitamin C in the mentioned skincare products is sourced from tapioca to avoid GMOs and glyphosate commonly found in corn-derived ascorbic acid.
Limit oral vitamin C intake to avoid aging toxins
Taking more than 250mg of oral vitamin C can raise oxalates, a major and often overlooked toxin that contributes to aging.
Supplement glutathione to free cellular energy for muscle building
By supplementing with glutathione, your body spares the energy (ATP and NAD) it would have used to make it, freeing up resources for other functions like building muscle.
