The Super Shredder Vs The Shredder Amino Asylum Product Review

0:09 Hey everybody, this is Hunter Williams. I hope you were doing amazing wherever you are at in the world. Today's video is going to be all about injectable glutathione. So I actually had a video about this on my previous YouTube channel that I did a very complex in depth guide to inject a little thion and I actually forgot that I didn't have one on my new channel. So today, in light of me getting some new glutathione recently to my house, because I ran out of my old one that had been using, I'm going to talk about injectable glutothione. This is one of the things that's obviously not a peptide.

0:40 It is sold by research chemical companies where you can really Get it pretty much anywhere. Doctors prescribe it. And a lot of these IV drip clinics or hydration clinics that you can go to pretty anywhere in America now have them on street corners everywhere. So injectable L-glutathione, as it would be properly called, is an amazing substance that is really, really good for anti-aging, longevity, and a whole host of other benefits that I'm going to talk about today. I kind of gloss over this one, but it's something that is just tried and true that I use all the time depending on how stressed or not stressed I may be.

1:16 But I think this is going to be one that covers everyone. So obviously I talk about a ton of different peptides and some peptide are good for some people and they wouldn't be so good some other people. I'm thinking in light of all of the stress that we are exposed to in the modern world, whether that's environmental stress, physical stress, mental stress emotional stress glutathione especially the injectable kind it's something that everyone can include in their stack especially if you're a adult so what I'm going to do today is walk through how to use it all of the benefits that you can get and then any sort of precautions that

1:50 You may want to have around this if there are any so What I've been doing lately is if this video gets 500 likes what i will do is post a pdf link of my slides down in the comments and pin the comment to the top. That way you can download it. You won't have to opt in with your email or anything like that. So make sure you click a like on the video. And then obviously too, if you would like to sign up for my email list, you download the peptide cheat sheet. you get access to that and you'll signup for email lists and I send out notifications about new videos and then also really cool, informative articles. and also to all of the wink wink stuff I can't talk about on the YouTubes and a lot of other public places on social media.

2:26 So, and obviously too, if you want to be in a community of 450 people that love talking about these type of topics, head over to Fully Optimized Health. Jay Campbell and I are in there every single week doing live calls, answering people's questions, responding to messages and all that stuff. Uh, make sure you check that out. So without further ado, I'm going to share my screen. And today we're going learn about injectable L glutathione. All right. I am Hunter Williams and today's video is going be injectible glutothione for longevity.

2:57 This is gonna be a comprehensive guide. By the end of this video, it is my attempt to enlighten you enough so that you can go use glutethione on your own for the rest of your life. If you don't want to, you never have to come find me or listen to me again. What is glutathione? So basically it is a tripeptide composed of three amino acids, glutamine, cysteine, and glycine. So if you know anything about me, you'd know I love glutamine and I loved glycein, especially for the gut healing benefits they provide, but it's naturally produced in the liver and plays a very crucial role in a lot of different biological processes, namely detoxification and also immune

3:37 function and antioxidant. antioxidant defense. So we really are going to employ this one as it relates to detoxification. And when we look at detoxication, it's something that you don't want to do once a year. You want it to be doing it on a very regular, if not semi-regular basis. Let's look at the mechanisms of action for glutathione. Basically, it scavenges free radicals. That sounds cool. What does that mean? It neutralizes free radicles directly and also helps regenerate other antioxidants such as vitamin C and E back to their active form.

4:11 So basically, free kind of manifest in the body when we are exposed to a lot of oxidative stress or toxic food, toxic stuff in environment, and glutathione is going to help neutralize those. So it also is a major player as it relates to enzymatic reactions. It acts as a co-factor for several antioxidant enzymes, including glutothione peroxidase, which plays a key role in protecting cells from oxidant damage again. See a common theme here. oxidative stress preventing and defending against oxidant stress, glutathione is very big.

4:46 Glutathion S transferase is GST. This is basically an enzyme family and it's involved in the conjugation of glutothione to various endogenous and exogenous compounds, basically facilitating their excretion from the body. Where does that lead us to in terms of benefits? So basically it is a antioxidant powerhouse. So it's often referred to as the man, excuse me, master antioxident because it was involved in neutralizing free radicals and reactive oxygen species.

5:16 That's all the rage right now in longevity circles is basically this idea of reactive, oxygen, species and free-radicals. Because when we neutralize those, it helps protect cells from oxidative stress and damage, which obviously is very closely linked and correlated with aging. Like I mentioned, we have detoxification. So glutathione binds to toxins and heavy metals which facilitates the removal from the body. Um, so it's critical obviously for liver health, but overall wellbeing. Let's pause for a second and think about all of the heavy medals, all the toxins that are in our world today.

5:53 If you look back, probably even 200 years ago, you really wouldn't have maybe 80 to 90% of those toxins in the environment, meaning that you probably can't live naturally without being exposed to these, even if you're off in a very rural remote area. So again, you know, maybe you could have gotten the body to produce enough of its own glutathione in past times, but right now there's an overwhelming stress load as it relates to the environment and glutothione, I personally believe is one of the best defenses against that.

6:24 This kind of plays into the next benefit, which is immune system support. So glutathione supports immune function by promoting the production of white blood cells and enhancing their ability to fight infections and diseases. It not only helps with detoxifying the body, but it increases our response to any sort of pathogen, affections, Uh, what have you, and, uh, you know, this is kind of overlooked when it relates to autoimmune disease, there's all these different things people want brought to immune disease. And I think we've found kind. A secret out there that could really help and benefit a lot of people again, because of what it helps to do.

6:57 Uh some of these, immune system related issues that people tend to have. Obviously there's the cool stuff, which is anti-aging. So by reducing oxidative distress, glutathione helps slow down the aging process, Which I know for everyone out there, particularly women, is huge because it minimizes the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Um, this is where I particularly love it and can definitely notice the difference is, uh, in regards to athletic performance. So glutathione role in reducing oxidative stress inflammation may contribute to improve recovery times and overall athletic performances.

7:28 I can, definitely a test to, um, I've been using it extensively for a few years now. And I first came across it, back when I was doing some bodybuilding stuff and, basically what happens if you train too hard or you over train, you can elevate your liver enzymes and uh. In terms of how this feels, some people may feel it. Some people it may not. I kind of felt like amped up and like on edge all the time. And I noticed that it helped with that. In doing so, it brought down my liver enzymes, which leads to the last one, just liver health. So glutathione plays a critical role in liver function, particularly in the detox process.

8:00 It helps protect the liver from damage caused by toxins, alcohol, and other medications. Maybe like things like NSAIDs that could be deleterious to liver. Here is my argument for as to why everyone needs it today. So obviously, like I mentioned, we are up against increased exposure to pollutants, pesticides, and heavy metals in the body because of everything in Exposure to this increases free radicals, so glutathione helps detoxify harmful substances and protects cells from damage from these substances.

8:37 It also too, and this is not a substance that you can use as an excuse or basically you would never want to think about this as a defense, I can support it, but Uh, modern diets are often deplete natural glutathione levels. So when we use injectable glutethione, it's going to help replenish these levels, um, so basically a poor diet of processed food is going too, uh, much more rapidly to plead glutothione because of what the body has to do to just even extract the nutrients that it needs from that crappy food that you're eating.

9:08 Also too, people today are up against increased stress levels. So we've got email, we got driving to work. We got all these different things that a lot of people didn't have back in the ancient world. Chronic stress elevates free radical production leading to oxidative stress, and glutathione regulates oxidated stress and supports the immune system. Obviously we've got the aging aspect of it. So natural glutathione production declines with age, decreasing or excuse me, increasing disease risk and supplementing with it supports healthy aging and disease prevention. Also too, I will say in my experience, people that are older tend to have a more pronounced response to glutothione.

9:43 Obviously it's going to be person dependent, right? You know, someone could be younger and have. A lot of issues that it is going benefit from this, but typically, you know all things else equal. someone's older, they typically, in my experience, tend to have a better response to glutathione. So we've also got EMF or EMR exposures or EMR from electromagnetic radiation on devices may contribute to oxidative stress. Not may, but it definitely does. But glutothione helps protect against this. I think that alone is enough of a use case for glutethione because of all of the I mean, just for me right now, I've got my computer,

10:17 my phone, there's a WiFi router in my house. All this stuff is all around us and all the times it's bombarding us, let alone like all of the 5G and stuff here. So there is that. And then we've pollution and UV radiation. Urban Living exposes individuals to pollution, and uv radiation, which leads to oxidative stress. Glutathione reduces this oxidant stress and supports skin and overall health. Like I talked about before, it definitely helps with the immune system and especially as it relates to the new system being stressed out,

10:47 which could mean autoimmune disease. And then we've got lifestyle factors, so smoking, alcohol and lack of exercise, increased oxidative stress. And so injectable glutathione can help counteract this because of the negative effects that you may or may not choose to have because your lifestyle. So I pulled this up just to give you guys some research. And again, the video gets 500 likes. I'll publish this PDF. It just takes me a while to upload and make a link and all that stuff. So 2009 study found that glutathione plays a critical role in protecting cells from oxidative stress.

11:22 2012 study, found, that, glutothione, showed significant reductions in melamine content. indicating its effectiveness in skin lightening. So that might not be something that you're particularly interested in, but I know people that have melasma, I even get a little bit of melisma depending on how tan I am around my eyes there. I've noticed that it tends to help a bit with that. Again, so I don't necessarily want to be really pale, when we look at these splotchy spots that people may have on their skin,

11:52 for someone like me that kind of has those, it definitely helps with I'm not saying it makes it go away completely, but it definitely will improve it to where you don't notice it as much. A 2013 study found it's a key player in immune function. So it explored glutathione's role in modulating immune responses. And it found that adequate levels are essential for proper functioning of immune cells, particularly in combating inflammation. When we maintain higher levels, it is going to enhance immune functions, especially if we're in an environment with high pathogen exposure.

12:23 2000 studies going back a while now found that it could be a promising therapy for neurodegenerative conditions. Obviously those are related to oxidative stress. A 2017 study found it may be beneficial for individuals with liver diseases, particularly non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. There's a huge phenomenon now going on of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Meaning that before, people would get fatty-liver if they were an alcoholic, but now you're seeing this proliferation, especially in younger and younger people,

12:57 where they're getting fatty livers but they don't drink at all. So glutathione's huge with that. 2011 study found glutatthione supplementation may be essential for detoxification in today's toxin-related environment, specially as it relates to heavy metals, which obviously have a very poor effect on our health. A 2010 study as it relates to cardiovascular health found it may protect against cardiovascular diseases by reducing oxidative stress in the heart itself. As it related to aging, 2013 study found that maintaining or boosting glutathione levels through supplementation could slow down the aging process and

13:34 promote longevity. And then 2018 study more recent in regards to athletic performance found, that it made benefit athletes by producing their oxidated stress load and enhancing recovery. And I think, you know, that's not something that is obviously a priority for everyone. But if you look at an athlete, having been, uh, You know an, athlete in a former lifetime ago, it seems like, um, That was something I know that I wish I would have had access to this back then. and again, do not quote me on this. Again, this is not medical advice, but as it relates to performance enhancing drugs, I do know not that glutathione necessarily would raise the ire of

14:07 any governing bodies, But do your own research for that. Moving along, let's look at the modes of administration. So yes, you have to inject glutathione for it to work, but I did want to address this because it is something that I get asked because there are oral capsule forms out there. So it's obviously available in multiple forms, including oral supplements, liposomal formulations, and topical creams. Injectable glutathione is considered the most effective as most things are if you're able to inject them.

14:39 The reason is the oral form has low bioavailability due to the breakdown of the digestive system. So typically, you'd want to do this intravenously. Now, if you're going to that agreement, do you do that in a clinical setting? And again, you can go to some of these like IV drip clinics or hydration clinics, and they typically will offer that. Or you could do it like I do intramuscularly where you may or may not order from a research chemical company of which I will not name on my YouTube channel, but you would get that from them and then use it.

15:09 So this obviously bypasses the digestive system. Obviously this is going to ensure higher bioavailability. I did want to mention something with the liposomal delivery system, so I have not used lipozomol glutathione. From what I hear, it is pretty efficacious. Um, I don't know any specific brands or anything like that. You guys probably even know more than me. If you've looked into this, um, do know there are some really, really cool lipozoa formulations. different things coming in the future so obviously I will cover that when I know more because I think it's cool you know peptides are amazing but there's

15:48 only a certain number of people that will ever really adopt injecting themselves with something. And that's just the nature of the beast. But I will say if we can get a lot of these things, and hopefully I can be involved in this and I plan on being involved with it, into formulations and delivery systems that can orally efficacious, I think it'd be huge. We'll see how that goes, but I have a lot of hope around that. I'm not someone that would necessarily trash the liposomal formulation.

16:18 Um, I would if it doesn't work as well, But I, um, very hopeful that it's coming in the future so that like you and I could just get like a little lipasomally chewable thing and take it every day with glutathione and get the same effects as injecting it. So, That's that. Now side effects, I don't know of any side-effects, but put this on here as I always do. So it's very safe, very few side affects. If you're doing high doses for whatever reason, obviously like talk to your doctor. Some people could have allergic reactions.

16:48 Most of the time that's just an injection site reaction. It's not too uncommon, But I would say in the case of glutathione, rarely have heard of people having it. Um, there is limited evidence suggesting that excessive use of glutathione for skin lightening might disrupt normal melanin production lead to uneven skin tone or other skin issues. So kind of what I mentioned before, um, if you're using it for. Skin issues like melasma or something like that. If you overusing it, the possibility exists that you could go too far in the other direction. I haven't seen that, you know, and I've used it pretty extensively myself, but, Here is everyone's favorite, the dosage and protocol.

17:21 So what I did, this is straight from the horse's mouth. This is kind of like what would recommend to people based on all the people that I've worked with, based myself. I broke this up into three different things. If you don't fall under one of these categories, I try to make it where most people be grouped into one. Dealing with an illness, you're chronically inflamed, your highly diseased, fatty liver disease, I would recommend one gram per week broken up into four 250

17:54 milligram doses. So I will do that until you have symptom resolution from whatever illness you are dealing with. And that's still like not a huge dose, but it's enough of a dose where I think people will see benefit, at least the benefit will start to confer to their biological systems. The next one I have is for fat loss. So obviously glutathione is not a fat-loss agent. However, in the process of helping someone lose fat, it is something that can be very helpful because of what it does again to the oxidative uh,

18:25 stress pathways and everything in the body. So I recommend 500 milligrams per week broken up into two, 250 milligram doses. Uh, and again, I say continue this until symptom resolution. Again, you don't have to worry about like cycling on, cycling off, especially if you're dealing again with, an illness or severe inflammation because of obesity. Now, and then the last case, this would be like for me, for instance, I'd say lean, strong, optimizing for longevity and athletic performance. This is kind of my protocol that I pretty much am doing on and off all the time is 300 milligrams per week broken up into three 100 milligram doses.

19:00 So I typically will do those on my non-training days just because that's typically three days per week that I'm not lifting weights. And what I say is to do that one month on, one-month off. Obviously, I will kind of titrate that up or down depending on my stress load. So if I am really stressed, if if I'm like dealing with a ton of work stress or something like that, I'll kind of move that up. But if i'm pretty chill, you know, iIm pretty good, like you can take a month off. So by all means you could use that year round, but for all intents and purposes of just minimizing injections, even though I am not huge against injections

19:37 or anything like, it's just nice to not have to inject it because what I will get to in a second is what you would do for injection protocol. So again, just use discretion based on your stress load, but for, you know, your optimized person that wants to include this in their life to just optimize every facet, that's what I would. Now let's move to what I said. So basically there are providers from which you could get this on the internet. I'm not going to name them, but one of them starts with AA and one ML from this company will equate to 200 milligrams.

20:14 Basically if you wanted to use 200 mg, you would inject one ml. So what I would do is get a 28 gauge insulin needle and that company already mixes them. So it arrives at your doorstep mixed already. And so you would just do that. Very, very simple. Now there's another one called LL that is out there and they sell 500 milligram vials. So what I would do for that, these come unconstituted or unmixed, however you want to call it.

20:44 What I will do if it were me, this is not medical advice, it's not advice is I'll add two milliliters of back water to that 500 milligram vial. And so now one 250 milligram dose is one milliliter injection. Again, I'd use a 28 gauge insulin needle to do an IM injection with that. And then if I want to do the smaller maintenance dose of 100 milligrams, I would use 0.4 ml. So you can do math. The math is not hard, but you do a math on how long that'll last you if you're doing a 100 milligram dose, that's five doses.

21:19 If you are doing it three days a week, you might need three or four vials for a couple months applied, depending on how you want to do it. So that is my instructions for getting it and mixing it, and obviously if you the lowdown on that, you can sign up for my email list where it's a little bit easier to communicate with you guys in a clearer manner. Um, so I just have the last one is My experience. The best way to say it is it gives you an feeling.

21:49 meaning that if I'm really stressed out within a couple of days, I can use injectable glutathione and it does do a good job of calming me down. Now I don't know if that's from like liver enzymes being elevated because of stress and training. It just could be a whole host of things, but basically when you stress the body out, you have all of the damage that comes from that and glutothione tends to help with it. It definitely helps me recover faster for my workouts. Like I mentioned before, if your liver enzymes are elevated, hopefully not due to alcohol consumption, but they're due over training,

22:20 or you could be using anti-inflammatory medications or something like that that would cause that to the liver, it does a really good job of helping with that. And more importantly, enhances mood, cognition, and calmness. So I notice I tend to be much more calm when I'm using glutathione. Obviously that wouldn't make sense because we don't have all these toxins and nasty stuff floating around in our body. And we just kind of feel good. Um, and then it also enhances skin and hair. So I can attest to that. Definitely like my skin, hair and stuff. I do a terrible job of like keeping record of my, skin hair stuff, um, in terms of, like the quality of it, but, uh, it definitely helps with that and

22:58 also too, if you are someone that travels for work, Uh, definitely it helps a lot with the inflammation and the stress from travel. Uh so whether you get jet lag or, you know, have immunity or anything like that, And then lastly, the one thing I haven't mentioned yet, but would not want to leave off to you guys just to forewarn you is that it does cause some post-injection pain or sting. So again, that kind of depends on the size of the needle to use. Again, we want it to do this intramuscularly, not subcutaneously for overall benefit. It typically will cause a little post injection pain, or staying while you're injecting.

23:33 Be conscious, be advised on that when you are doing it. So that is it for the slides, and that's my comprehensive guide to injectable glutathione. So hopefully you found that interesting and enjoyable. Remember, if you would like those slides for reference, drop a like on the video. Once I get to 500 likes, I'll make sure to post those so everyone can have access to them and download them. But I appreciate you guys. Hopefully this is helpful. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to drop those in the comments. I do my best to answer all the questions in Q&A videos.

24:07 Probably won't have time to respond to the comment individually. Cause there's so many now, but, um, again, I appreciate you guys much love. And, uh, if there is anything else, Um, out there that you would like to hear, Uh, remember too, that I have a link that, you can submit a video topic question or request and, people have done a really good job lately of sending me ideas and questions they like addressed and some other materials. So, appreciate, guys, much, love, and I will talk to you in the next one. Peace.
