An interesting overview by Dr Eric on Glutathione the master anti-oxidant.
“The autoimmune thyroid conditions Graves’ Disease and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis involve damage to the cells of the thyroid gland. Think of it as a war. There is a one-sided war going on between your immune system and thyroid gland, and the battlefield is wrought with damaged or dead tissue and cells. We want to clean up this battleground, repair the war zone, get rid of the bad guys that contributed to the condition in the first place, and glutathione can be a key player to tipping the scales in your favor. In this article I’ll discuss why a glutathione deficiency is common, some of the methods of testing for a glutathione deficiency, and how to increase glutathione levels through diet and supplementation.”
