Kidney Disease & Glutathione / Immunocal

The rationale for people with Kidney Disease taking Immunocal is based on the evidence contained in the abstracts & articles below, which describe the crucial role Glutathione plays in Kidney Disease. Other supporting abstracts can also be found.

Glutathione plays a crucial role in mediating free radical damage & maintaining the oxidant/anti oxidant balance. When glutathione is depleted this tilts the balance in favor of the oxidants - resulting in oxidative stress. Immunocal provides cells with the precursors, or building blocks, needed to produce glutathione. This helps scavenge the free radicals and may slow down the degenerative process.
