In this video, we’re going to talk about the antioxidant glutathione. Glutathione is an important antioxidant present in all of your cells. It helps detoxify heavy metals and protects against free radical damage and oxidation.

Your body makes glutathione! You should only take a supplement if you have Tylenol poisoning. Tylenol depletes glutathione and puts your liver at risk for damage. If you’re dealing with Tylenol poisoning, you may be given an NAC supplement, a precursor to help build up your glutathione.

Glutathione deficiency symptoms include the following:
• Trouble sleeping
• Brain fog
• Fatigue
• Mood issues
• Depression
• Anxiety

Top causes of glutathione deficiency:
• Alcohol
• Low-calorie diets
• Overtraining
• Vegan diets
• Low-protein intake
• A mutation of the MTHFR gene
• Folic acid supplements

Try the following tips to ensure that you’re getting enough glutathione without taking a supplement:
1. Get enough glycine. Consume organ meats, the skin from meat and fish, bone broth, and gelatin.
2. Ensure adequate B vitamin intake. Avoid synthetic B vitamins. Meat is a great source of B12 and consuming organ meats and dark leafy greens will help add folate to your diet.
3. Get plenty of vitamin C from sources like sauerkraut and leafy greens.
4. Get enough sleep.
5. Do not over-exercise. Limit high-intensity exercise to twice a week.
6. Reduce stress. Adaptogens, going for a walk, listening to music, and even physical labor can reduce stress.
7. Consume sufficient protein with plenty of calories.
8. Increase carb intake to 50 grams per day.
9. Consume cruciferous vegetables.
10. Consume seafood for trace minerals like zinc and selenium.

    as a senior, I began walking on my mini trampoline with wonderful results! I have a stabilizer bar that prevents me from falling, I simply alternate the raising of my heels while my toes stay in place. I get cardio in just a matter of minutes. My lymph system is rejoicing! I highly recommend a mini trampoline, especially for seniors! Thank you so much Dr. Berg for being such a health crusader!❤

    00:00 🧬 Glutathione is a vital antioxidant that helps detoxify the body and protect against oxidative damage caused by pollution, chemicals, and other factors. 00:42 💊 Taking glutathione supplements is generally unnecessary as the body naturally produces it, except in cases of Tylenol poisoning where NAC supplements may be beneficial. 01:56 🚫 Symptoms of glutathione deficiency include sleep problems, fatigue, brain fog, mood disorders like depression and anxiety. 02:19 🍽 Causes of glutathione deficiency can include alcohol consumption, low-calorie diets, overtraining, and inadequate protein intake, particularly for vegans. 03:00 💤 Strategies to increase glutathione levels include consuming glycine-rich foods like organ meats, getting adequate sleep, and avoiding excessive exercise. 04:07 🍗 Ensuring intake of methyl versions of B vitamins, especially B12 and folate, can support glutathione production. 04:59 🥬 Vitamin C from sources like raw sauerkraut and leafy greens can act as a precursor for glutathione synthesis. 06:22 ⏰ Sufficient protein intake is crucial for glutathione production, and excessive fasting or low-calorie diets can hinder it. 07:05 🍓 Including a moderate amount of carbohydrates, around 50 grams, can potentially improve glutathione levels by supporting amino acid absorption through insulin reg

    Thank you Dr Berg…I’ve been on and off keto for years (mostly on) and benefited greatly from your videos over the years. I implemented carnivore Jan 1 and lost 40lbs in 10 weeks. Vertigo started a couple weeks ago. I reintroduced a small amount of carbs (salad) and the vertigo subsided.

    I think my Mom needs this. Thank you for the video! You are the best!
  • @WhiteWay-tx9qt
    I wanna thank Dr Berg for making videos about health for so many years. I’m from Kazakhstan, and I started watching him in Russian channel in Youtube. And as a person that wached so many channels about health, I can say that Dr Berg is the best in this area without any doubt❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤THANK YOU DR BERG, can’t wait to see you personally❤
  • This video is for me!!! For about 15 years I’ve been on a supplement that contains the items to form glutathione after they pass the digestive system. (This can only be found online at one site). As long as I take this my chronic fatigue has been somewhat under control- but I have trouble getting good sleep and am depressed. You have helped me understand my situation better and now can look to my diet and lifestyle to hopefully get off the expensive supplements. 😊
  • Eric can you debunk the new “study” that fasting increases chances of having a heart attack?
  • @a.williams9
    Great helpful advice, Dr Berg. Thank you 🙏🏻
  • @rachitsoni1000
    Hey dr berg lots of love and respect to you from India. You have helped me to loose a lot of fat and that has transformed my life . I wanted if you can make more videos about top level fitness and keto i have been on keto from last 2 years and have made good progress in terms of both strength and endurance but recently a lot of people on internet have been telling that carbs are essential for increasing muscle mass or strength , carbs generate more quicker and short burst of energy , they are very anti cataboilic , anti cortisol. Etc Thanks
  • @Marina-zw6bz
    for some reason , I can't drink additional vitamins because vitamins enter the body naturally with food and liquid . Seasonally I eat fruits and vegetables , in winter of course I buy at the rural market ... I love fish very much...😊❤ Novosibirsk Siberia Russia
  • @AlexDA251

  • @barbarahoyle8615
    Low carb, or low protein diets can cause low levels of glutathione. Sleep poorly, anxiety, fear or Insufficient calories. I take NAC daily 600 mg and 5 mg melatonin each night. Im 73 and feel good.
