Results using glutathione??
I take N-acetyl L-cysteine (NAC,) a glutathione precursor, but notice no benefit. I don't expect to see any benefit from any of the supplements I take, although I believe they're beneficial. Once in a blue moon a supplement like B-1 will come long where the benefits are noticeable to significant number of people, but otherwise, if your supplements are beneficial, i.e., slowing down the progression, there's no way to know that. Compared to what? NAC is the cheapest way to get glutathione and its importance puts it near the top of the list of things to take.
I agree completely with what MBAnderson wrote. IIf you can find it cover your bases by taking the glutathione precursor complex.
I take NAC and have since diagnosed 3 years ago. I asked my GP about glutathione injections but she said there is no real evidence to support them and only worth trying if desperate. They only seem to do them at beauty clinics here!
Helps Lyme disease - NAC and Glutathione. Hubby tried IV Glutathione (from an integrative doctor - which basically means not covered by insurance) and then went to the Liposomal Glutathione - they make a watermelon flavor which is much better than the orange (hubby said its disgusting). From glutathione my husband has more energy. It promotes healthy detoxification. His chronic Lyme disease morphed into PD (loss of dopamine).
I have tried the IV bag infusion a couple of times and feel it relief my stiffness and rigidity of my left arm which is very atrophied with PD. It’s very expensive (the IV ) but my doctor prescribed me it on a nebulizer vial (2 a day, 60 vials a month supply) is cheaper and to me it still helping me to relief the muscles, provide a general been well and keep glutathione levels fair as we the PWP in some instances are at risk of get our glutathione depleted and to compromise our auto immune system.
Did your dr have your levels checked? Is it your neuro who ordered it?
Thanks
Carrie
No. I haven’t check my levels and it wasn’t my neuro. My neuro is a conservative traditional drugs prescriber physician. I also visit a general doctor (a good doctor) who deals with alternative medicine, metals detox, hormones therapy, infusions of vitamins, chelation, gluthatione, hyperbaric orygen chamber and other non traditional medicine therapies. Hope you find some relief and get better. Rgds.
I see a functional medicine dr. mostly for digestive issues and I love the supplemental therapies, too. My dr. works with Dr. Mark Hyman at the Cleveland Clinic Functional Medicine Department. He has authored many books and founded the department there. So both my husband and I have learned alot. My husbands neuro is also very conventional. Thanks for your reply and hope all goes well for you!!
Blessings,

After about 4 to 6 weeks of taking 2 glutathione capsules of "Reduced Glutathione" along with the NAC that had already been taking, made tremendous improvements to my memory and helped me to move a bit better.
First of all I just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to comment on my question and share with our fabulous Parkinson’s community. What brand and dosage do you take of the NAC and also the glutathione?
My husband uses Puritan Price NAC N-Acetyl Cysteine, 600 mg 1 capsule daily. The Liposomal Glutathione Tri-Fortify Watermelon is made by Researched Nutritionals. May be hard to acquire - some places require a script. Hubby gets from his integrative doctor. At least this info will give you a head start in your research and when talking with a doctor (neuro, primary, etc.)
