Glutathione is often referred to as the “master antioxidant”. That’s due to its vital role in protecting the body from oxidative stress and supporting the immune system. When glutathione levels are low, it can lead to a range of health issues.
Below, we’ll explore the symptoms of low glutathione and effective ways to boost your levels, including treatments available right here at Colair Beauty Lounge & Med Spa!
What is Glutathione?
Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant composed of three amino acids: cysteine, glutamine, and glycine. It’s naturally produced in the liver and is essential for eliminating heavy metals and other toxins from the body.
Glutathione also strengthens the immune system to fight off infections, and protects cells from suffering from oxidative damage.
Symptoms of Low Glutathione Levels
When glutathione levels drop, your body may exhibit several signs indicating a deficiency. Common symptoms of low glutathione include:
Chronic Fatigue
Persistently feeling tired despite getting plenty of rest can be a sign of oxidative stress due to low glutathione.
Frequent Colds and Infections
A weakened immune system may lead to recurrent colds, flu, or other types of infections.
Joint and Muscle Pain
Oxidative damage can cause inflammation, leading to discomfort in joints and muscles.
Brain Fog
Difficulty concentrating, memory issues, and a lack of mental clarity may be linked to glutathione deficiency.
Changes in Skin Appearance
Skin problems like acne, rashes, or a dull complexion can result from impaired detoxification processes.
Poor Sleep Quality
Low glutathione levels may affect sleep patterns, leading to insomnia or unrestful sleep.
Causes of Low Glutathione Levels
Several factors can deplete glutathione in the body. Its natural production decreases as we age. Physical and emotional stress can also reduce typical levels.
A diet with a lack of essential nutrients reduces glutathione synthesis. Exposure to chemicals and other pollutants can increase the demand for the body’s antioxidants, while autoimmune diseases have also been shown to deplete glutathione.
How to Boost Glutathione Levels
Glutathione Injections at Colair
One of the most effective ways to increase glutathione is through glutathione injections. At Colair, we offer professional glutathione treatments that provide numerous benefits.
When administered directly into the bloodstream, glutathione is highly absorbed for maximum effectiveness. What’s more, injections promote improved skin health, while also supporting liver function to eliminate toxins.
Nutrient-Rich Diet
Another way to boost glutathione is by incorporating foods that support glutathione production. Add sulfur-rich foods such as garlic, onion, kale and broccoli to your diet. High selenium foods such as fish and eggs, as well as Vitamin C staples like citrus fruits, strawberries and bell peppers can also give you a boost.
Regular Exercise and Stress Management
Engaging in moderate physical activity can naturally increase glutathione levels and reduce oxidative stress. Stress management techniques such as meditation, yoga, or deep-breathing exercises can also serve to minimize stress-related depletion.
