Dr. Mischley - Glutathione

[jimcaster]

Does anyone know the particular brand of intranasal glutathione which Dr. Laurie Mischley recommends?

[Despe]

Hi Jim,

My husband is her patient. She prescribed it for him and our compounding pharmacist filled her prescription. Not cheap either.

Also, our FM practitioner gave him intravenous glutathione injection which is 100 times more effective!

[laglag in reply to Despe]

Hi Despe. What does it do for him?

[Despe in reply to laglag]

Hi laglag.

It helped him with energy and apathy. She asked him to continue with liposomal glutathione (QuickSilver) 10 sprays X 2 day.

[Vegegardner in reply to Despe]

Did IV glutathione work , thanks for sharing.

[Despe in reply to Vegegardner]

I am not quite sure. He is on several supplements/minerals and don't know exactly what works best. It doesn't hurt, that is certain. You have to use it and see if it works for you.

I too see Dr Mischley fairly regularly and was told over year ago that - contrary to earlier indicators - more recents studies indicate little or no advantage gained by the.expensive (and troublesome) intranasal formulation over existing oral glutathione supplements. I’ve taken 500 mg 2x p/day of ‘reduced glutathione’ ever since.

[JANVAN in reply to PDConscience]

Hi PDC ! Do you then use it still ??

[PDConscience in reply to JANVAN]

Yes, I do. Meanwhile, I no longer use the glutathione precursor NAC.

[Despe in reply to PDConscience]

Yes, you are right. That's what Laurie Mischley told my husband. Drop NAC and continue with Glutathione.

[AmyLindy in reply to Despe]

Same. It’s redundant otherwise.

[gwendolinej in reply to PDConscience]

What has it done for you. My husband had extreme apathy. He's been taking Mannitol for a few weeks and it had a dramatic effect. Maybe this might help as well.

[Vegegardner in reply to gwendolinej]

Your the lady. Thankyou. How much mannitol?

[gwendolinej in reply to Vegegardner]

Hi there, my husband takes 1tablespoon a day in coffee. That is what was recommended in the initial research. Our pharmacist confirmed it. The result was amazing.

If you are interested, have a look at the Syncolein site to read about the research. This is what was initially mentioned on this site and where I started.

We get our mannitol in Australia from a wholesaler, who imports it from Spain. It's the Sosa brand and some members have sourced it directly from the company, which you could try.

Good luck. Please keep us informed.

Thankyou Gwen. I have a hunch that Vitex helped my dad. A hd/Nd wrote an essay on natural pd meds and got first in Australia. Her name was Allison Shaw. On net somewhere. She says that Vitex does not down regulate receptors. Like meds or macuna. Cheers .

[Vegegardner in reply to gwendolinej]

I just read that mannitol pulls fluid from the brain ? I better look at the page you suggested. Cheers

[gwendolinej in reply to Vegegardner]

Keep in mind that mannitol is a diabetic sweetener. The suggested dose is 1tbs. a day. Our pharmacist reported, when he checked the research, that more is not better, in fact is detrimental. The no sugar lollies at the supermarket say (under contents): mannitol. I suspect if you were using it in diabetic foods, you'd be using a lot more than 1tbs and my husband says his iced coffee is not particularly sweet using 1tbs.

PDConscience, what does the oral reduced glutathione do for you? Any unwanted side effects? Also, what brand do you purchase and where do you purchase it? Thanks.

[SilentEchoes]

Hi, intranasal glutathione is a compounded pharmaceutical that requires a prescription.

You can nebulize glutathione (this is what I'm doing). There is a lot of research information online. This therapy is contraindicated if you have asthma or are sulfate sensitive.

The product I buy is Cardiovascular Research reduced glutathione powder. Starting at 1g and titrated up to 5g.

Nebulizers are easy to find on Craigslist and Facebook.

[Vegegardner in reply to SilentEchoes]

Is it worth it. Nebulizing ?

[OptimusPrime]

S-acetyl glutathione supposedly gets past the gut and reaches the brain...seems to provide more energy and clarity. 200 mg/day...several brands available. Anyone else using S-acetyl version of glutathione?

[sharoncrayn in reply to OptimusPrime]

S-Acetylglutathione (SAG) is a GSH precursor, it is more stable

than GSH itself in plasma and is taken up directly by cells and later

converted to GSH (see Figure 1). The acetylation of the sulfur atom

prevents the decomposition of GSH and facilitates its absorption

through the intestinal wall as is, thus enabling the molecule to pass

extensively into the cells. Moreover, cysteinyl acetylation prevents the

oxidation of the thiol group before its absorption.

[AmyLindy in reply to sharoncrayn]

I’m now taking 5ml liposomal Glutathione - it’s a liquid version & requires Rx. Superior to tablets and more cost effective than IV , easier than nebulizing. It’s an antioxidant w benefits that may not appear evident . I take it as “insurance”.

[sharoncrayn in reply to AmyLindy]

Liposomal delivery (usually sublingual) is always the best way to go, but why the Rx? Compounding pharmacy? Don't see the need.

Pure, Amandean, Optimal, and Quicksilver are decent non-Rx brands in the US.
