The Glutathione Connection
Recent studies have shown that individuals with psychiatric disorders, such as bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, depression and other psychiatric illnesses are deficient in glutathione.
Glutathione is the major free radical scavenger in the brain. If glutathione levels become low, toxins can build up creating oxidative stress and cell damage.
Scientific research suggests that oxidative stress is a major factor underlying the development of bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder and schizophrenia.

Glutathione is Vital in the Brain
Glutathione is the major antioxidant and free radical scavenger in the brain and plays a vital role in mopping up harmful toxins. Without enough glutathione, these toxins accumulate and cause cell damage.
In a study published in the July 2010 issue of the International Journal of Neuropsyhopharmacology researchers found that the levels of systemic glutathione were significantly decreased in all psychiatric conditions and that individuals with these types of mental disorders may be more susceptible to oxidative stress and free radical damage.

Chelator of Heavy Metals
Glutathione has a unique ability to neutralise many types of free radicals and is also one of the cell's most powerful chelating agents, able to detoxify heavy metals, such as the mercury leaching from dental amalgam. These heavy metals would otherwise build up in the brain.
Glutathione is so important that scientists call it "The Defender of the Cell".

Depleted Glutathione Levels
Glutathione levels decrease with age by around 15% per decade. Other factors such as stress, alcohol, medications, toxins and electromagnetic radiation further deplete the vital glutathione levels.
In addition, exposure to electromagnetic radiation (such as from the ubiquitous WiFi, cordless and mobile phones) makes the blood brain barrier permeable to neurotoxins (such as mercury).

How to Increase Glutathione Production
RiboCeine is a novel compound that provides an effective means of elevating intracellular glutathione production. The RiboCeine compound combines ribose (an essential component of cellular energy ATP) and cysteine (precursor for glutathione) to provide the cells with the required building blocks for glutathione production.
RiboCeine is the key ingredient in the supplement Cellgevity, which has been shown to increase systemic glutathione production by over 300%. Cellgevity is ideal for supporting optimal brain function, detoxifying cells, improving mental clarity, increasing energy levels, enhancing sleep quality and improving overall health.
