Glutathione is your body’s natural detoxifier, produced in your liver and recycled continuously; it is the most critical detoxifying molecule you have. Glutathione helps remove heavy metals such as mercury, aluminum, and cadmium from your body, and it also helps eliminate toxins found in plastics and conventional cosmetic products or in mold. Our body’s glutathione production can be halted by intense physical activity over extended periods, which is why supplementation is essential. Detox diets and cleanses are “quick fixes” to help rid the body of toxins or promote short-term weight loss. While the promised results are alluring, detoxes and cleanse products or kits are unnecessary and can be harmful, especially because they are unregulated. Through everyday activities, people are exposed to chemicals, pollutants, heavy metals in food, and other environmental toxins.
