Types of IV Therapy: Glutathione 

Glutathione Immune Boosting IV Therapy Clinic

Every cell of your body contains a unique antioxidant called glutathione. It is composed of three different molecules, which are grouped together as amino acids. They combine in multiple patterns to produce all the protein in your body. Glutathione med spa IV therapy offers a number of health benefits for the right candidates.  

Motykie Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides glutathione IV therapy to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding locations. 

Vital Functions of Glutathione for Your Health 

Here are some of the key functions that glutathione IV therapy can perform for your health:  

  • Helping in the production of DNA, the building blocks of cells and proteins  
  • Boosting the immune function 
  • Formation of sperm cells 
  • Promoting certain enzyme functions 
  • Breaking down a few free radicals 
  • Eliminating mercury from the brain  
  • Regenerating vitamin C and E in the body 
  • Helping gall bladder and liver resolve the fats 
  • Supporting regular cell death (apoptosis process) 

Low levels of glutathione have been linked with certain diseases. You can improve your glutathione levels with intravenous supplementation (IV therapy).  

Types of IV Therapy: Glutathione Benefits of Glutathione IV Therapy 

Antioxidant Activity  

Free radicals are responsible for accelerating aging and certain diseases. Antioxidants play a key role in counteracting free radicals and protecting the body against their damaging impact. As a strong antioxidant, glutathione can neutralize the effects of free radicals when taken in higher doses through med spa IV therapy.  

Prevention of Cancer Progression  

According to some researchers, glutathione can help in prevention of cancer progression. However, scientific evidence is not yet established and researchers have not concluded what could be the precise benefits of glutathione IV therapy for cancer patients.  

Curbing Cellular Damage in the Liver  

Fatty liver disease, alcohol abuse and hepatitis can cause damage to the liver cells. A 2017 clinical trial has concluded that glutathione might assist in the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease because of the chemical’s potential to detoxify the body. 

Increasing Insulin Sensitivity 

Type 2 diabetes may occur because of insulin resistance in the body. A 2018 research study has indicated that patients with insulin resistance might suffer from lower levels of glutathione. Therefore, glutathione IV therapy could help to improve insulin sensitivity in some of the patients.  

Treating Symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease  

Some researchers believe that good levels of glutathione in the body could help reduce the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. While oral supplementation may not work, IV therapy could offer benefits to the patients.  

Reducing Damage Related to Ulcerative Colitis 

Ulcerative colitis, just like other inflammatory diseases, could occur because of oxidative stress and related damage. A 2003 research study indicates that supplementation of glutathione could improve some of the colon damage.  

More research is certainly required to conclusively determine the benefits of glutathione IV therapy for specific diseases. However, it is clear that the therapy may offer general health benefits and boost the disease fighting ability of patients in many cases.  

Motykie Medical Spa receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas for glutathione IV therapy.
