Nutrition Breakthrough: Scientist Unlocks Secret to Improving Our Natural Defenses

A great medical breakthrough in nutrition? Not since the discovery of penicillin, some doctors say, has science brought us a discovery as far-reaching -- a completely new way to strengthen our body’s inbuilt ability to ward off disease!

These doctors are referring to an “accidental finding” --a discovery by Dr. Gustavo Bounous, who worked for over 25 years for the Canadian Medical Research Council. As a surgeon, Dr. Bounous was initially looking for a protein that would help people recover from surgery faster.

• He ended up unlocking one of nature’s powerful secrets for improving our natural defenses against disease by showing how to strengthen our in-built master antioxidant and immune regulator.

• People are using this discovery to recover from “incurable” diseases as well as protecting themselves against every day colds and the flu.

Strengthening our in-built defenses, it turns out, protects against weaknesses that can lead to cancer as well as to the diseases of aging, including Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, to diabetes, heart disease, Macular Degeneration -- a wide range of diseases.

What did he discover?

A Nutritional Breakthrough Against Disease

It all started with a surprise discovery of a protein that dramatically extended the life of his research animals.

Because he was known for his expertise in nutrition, Dr. Bounous had been asked to test the health benefits of a bio-active whey protein that was considered to be a waste product.

• When he tested this protein, he found that his research animals lived from 30% to 50% longer, and they were less vulnerable to cancer and other diseases.

• It was not for many years, after further research with immunologists such as Dr P. Kongshavn at McGill University in Montreal, that they realized what they had discovered, and why this nutritional discovery was so exciting...

• ... that they had found HOW TO IMPROVE the body's OWN MECHANISM that REGULATES the immune system and is also our MASTER antioxidant and primary DETOXIFIER.

Unlocking Nature’s Secret to Improving Our Body’s Defenses

Dr. Bounous and his colleagues continued to test this protein in 23 clinical trials:

• They were amazed that when they added whey protein isolate to people's diets, their immune system, or "lymphocyte values" increased by 35.5% -- even in healthy people!

They had uncovered the secret of nature for one of medical science's "missing links!"

• Bio-active protein, they found, provides a rich source of cysteine, which boosts the supply of glutathione -- the molecule that scientists say protects us against disease.

Scientists had already known that this molecule glutathione, or GSH, is the body’s own MASTER Antioxidant, natural DETOXIFIER and “FOOD for the IMMUNE.”

• What scientists had NOT known prior to this discovery, is how to correct a glutathione deficiency, naturally, safely and without pharmaceuticals.

Awed by nature's power to restore health, Dr. Bounous called this nutritional discovery a "back to nature call."

Dr Bounous’ findings are considered by some doctors and researchers to be the biggest medical discovery since penicillin, and that this discovery deserves the Nobel Prize.

What Doctors Say About Enhancing Glutathione Against Chronic Illnesses

Why Can't You Just Take a Pill?

It turns out that raising our glutathione levels is not just a matter of taking a pill or a glutathione-promoting drug such as NAC! Or even taking it intravenously!

Why is it best via nutrition?

Because glutathione is a protein, and when it is taken in pill form, and even in food, most of it is digested like any other protein, and does not reach the cells where it is needed.

Even when supplied intravenously, glutathione has not been found to be effective, because it deteriorates before it gets to where it is needed, and it cannot effectively pass through the cell membrane.

Drugs that boost glutathione, such as NAC are typically used medically to help detoxify the liver, e.g. for a Tylenol overdose, but it is not recommended for long-term use for chronic long-term glutathione deficiencies. For instance, therapeutic levels of NAC have been associated with cerebral symptoms, nausea, blurred vision and vomiting.

Found: New Nutritional Way to Prevent and Overcome Diseases

It was Dr. Bounous who provided the science showing that to improve health and to live longer, we need to have high glutathione levels, and to boost these levels, the body requires a good supply of the raw materials.

How does the body make glutathione?

Our cells make glutathione from 3 amino acids: glycine, glutamate and cysteine.

Dr. Bounous found that of the 3 precursors needed to make glutathione, ONLY CYSTEINE is typically in short supply, or the “missing link.”

And it turns out that cysteine is most effectively supplied through nutrition and not through pills -- cysteine is not effectively absorbed when taken orally in pill form either.

Dr. Bounous developed a protein isolate rich in cysteine.

• The proteins found in tubs in health food and bodybuilding stores do NOT contain cysteine. Why?

• Whey proteins sold for sports nutrition have been instantized, homogenized and pasteurized so that the fragile cysteine molecule is destroyed AND is it is NOT "bio-active."

• These whey proteins do not have the disease-fighting cysteine that build your glutathione levels.

Who Needs to Elevate Their Glutathione?

Even healthy people improve their glutathione levels by supplementing with a cysteine-rich protein isolate -- improving their immune response, stamina and protection against disease.

The dangers of having LOW levels of glutathione are well documented -- numerous medical studies show LOW glutathione to be a factor in OVER 200 DISEASES.

Low-cost testing for glutathione levels are not yet available, but virtually everyone can benefit from supplementing:

• Healthy people and athletes get more stamina and better recovery time and tend not to get sick with improved glutathione levels -- because it is the MECHANISM that protects against stress, toxins, viruses and bacteria.

Glutathione (GSH) RESEARCH LINKS for:

• Alcohol dependency, • Allergies, Asthma & Respiratory Diseases, • Arthritis, • Autism, • Bone Density - Osteoporosis, • Cancer, • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, • Cognitive Performance, • Detoxification and liver problems, • Diabetes, • Digestive Disorders, • Epilepsy & Seizures, • Eyes, • Gum Disease, • Healthy Heart (cardiovascular disease, cholesterol, atherosclerosis, stroke, etc.) • Hepatitis B & C, • HIV - AIDS, • Infertility, • Influenza • Infection, • Auto Immune Problems, • Lupus, • Maintaining Health, • Meniere's disease, • Multiple Sclerosis, • Neurodegenerative Diseases: Parkinson's Disease, and Alzheimers, • Neuropathy, • Prostate GSH Defense, • Sports & Athletic Performance.

These can all benefit from raising glutathione through nutrition.

Best Natural Protection for Health and Healing

1) Glutathione is the body's own MASTER ANTIOXIDANT that protects all of our cells from damage, including its DNA, the energy centre or mitochondria and cell membranes.

Damage is generally caused by stress, aging, illness, poor diet and toxins due to an excess of free radicals. These cause "oxidative stress" which damages to the cells' DNA and eventual cell death.

• Oxidative damage is considered by scientists to be THE cause of aging and the underlying factor in many diseases.

• Improving glutathione gives protection against disease and aging by defending every cell in the body.

2) Glutathione also regulates the immune system and helps white blood cells function at OPTIMUM levels, boosting UNDERACTIVE cells and bringing OVERACTIVE ones in line, as with auto-immune diseases.

3) Glutathione detoxifies the by-products of cigarette smoke, exhaust fumes, chemicals and a host of harmful materials.

4) GSH assists the regulation of the cell's vital functions: the synthesis of protein, the repair of DNA and the activation and regulation of enzymes.

Glutathione is known to medical researchers around the world -- GSH has 80,000 references in the U.S. National Library of Medicine!

Now, enhancing the body's own ability to produce glutathione, GSH, through nutrition is a big medical breakthrough.

Safety of Raising Glutathione with Cancer?

Dr. Bounous tested his protein isolate in hospitals with very ill cancer patients, and found that his protein, rich in cysteine, had an INHIBITING effect on cancers.

• When given the protein supplement, people with cancer were stronger to withstand radiation and chemo, and saw an improvement in their resistance -- white and red blood counts, often leading to recovery where there was medically no hope.

Does Alpha-Lipoic Acid Raise Glutathione?

What about adding ALA as a supplement to your diet?

Lipoic acid helps the body to utilize cysteine.

• However, you still need a supply of cysteine to raise glutathione levels, so it is better to use a whey protein isolate with cysteine.

• There is also evidence indicating that lipoic acid enhances the growth of cancer cells, which is not the case for cysteine from nutritional sources.

Therefore it is safer to increase your supply of glutathione through nutrition, with a dietary source of cysteine-rich protein.
