1. GLUTATHIONE 

​

You may have heard of the “glutathione glow,” which is one of the many benefits that glutathione has to offer. If you’ve been searching for a solution to your skin problems or are struggling with a condition that depletes your body’s glutathione levels, then glutathione supplementation may be exactly what you need. Say goodbye to your wrinkles and acne and hello to a healthier, more confident you. Some even go so far as to call glutathione “liquid gold” or the “master antioxidant.” 

​

Everything You Need To Know About Glutathione

​

Glutathione is a tripeptide made up of three important amino acids, cysteine, glutamine, and glycine. Combined, these three amino acids make a powerful and essential antioxidant that is necessary for the appropriate functioning of the body. Low glutathione levels can lead to dangerous conditions and irritating symptoms, and low levels are also associated with worsening symptoms from serious diseases such as cystic fibrosis, AIDS, HIV, macular degeneration, Parkinson’s disease, COPD, Alzheimer’s, other neurodegenerative disorders, and things as common as aging. If you have a glutathione deficiency, you may feel tired and not be sleeping well, and supplementing glutathione injections at home can rejuvenate your entire body (NIH, n.d.).

​

Glutathione is essential to neutralize free radicals, which are unstable molecules that result from the normal metabolic processes in the body. In excess, free radicals cause oxidative stress, which can cause damage to cells and proteins if not properly balanced. Glutathione also protects against and helps the body recover from alcohol abuse and damage from pollutants and toxic metals and chemicals. It repairs, prevents, and regenerates the damage done to cells and proteins, combatting vision loss and strengthening heart and brain health. It even lowers the risk of a heart attack or heart disease if these symptoms and diseases are due to low glutathione levels.

Glutathione is well-known for its benefits to the skin. Because it works as an antioxidant and detoxifier, it has a powerful rejuvenating effect on not only the body but also how your skin looks and feels. It reduces hyperpigmentation, age spots and sun spots. It helps prevent wrinkles and helps manage acne. Other benefits of receiving consistent glutathione injections include better sleep, increased energy, decreased inflammation, clearer vision, stronger hair and nails that grow quickly, and a strengthened immune system.

​

How Does Glutathione Work?

​

Glutathione products for skin whitening work on the tyrosinase enzyme, which regulates melanin production in the body. Glutathione binds with the tyrosinase enzyme and thus inhibits melanin synthesis. Melanin gives color to the skin. So, the more melanin production, the darker the skin color would be. Similarly, it reduces free radicals in the body, which produces the tyrosinase enzyme and, thus, inhibits melanin synthesis. In addition, glutathione changes eumelanin to pheomelanin which also aids skin lightening.

Increased glutathione levels can help reduce the free radicals that cause wrinkles, age spots, and sagging skin. As a result, when glutathione, the body's most powerful antioxidant, is increased, oxidative stress in cells is reduced, and the skin appears more youthful, glowing, and healthy.

​

How Long Does It Take Glutathione To Lighten Skin?

​

Patience is the key to success. While doing glutathione, you need to show some tolerance. Nothing is possible overnight. The lightening of the skin depends mostly depends on your skin color. It usually takes at least three weeks to witness the benefits of glutathione. But, the final result will depend on how consistently you follow up with your treatments, your overall health, and your metabolism. Typically, it takes 1-3 months for people with light-medium brown skin to see some lightning effects of glutathione. For people with dark brown skin, glutathione takes 3-6 months to lighten the skin. However, people with very dark skin may see the lightning effect of glutathione in 6-12 months. And with a black complexion, glutathione takes 18 months to show any result.

So, patience is crucial. One exciting study suggests that glutathione therapy works best if you take them with vitamin C which we also offer with the glutathione shot.

What Are The Side Effects Of Glutathione Injections?

​

The side effects will vary from person to person because everyone reacts differently to medication, although side effects are pretty rare when it comes to glutathione. The most common side effect is bruising, irritation, and redness around the injection site, which is why it’s important to rotate where you administer the glutathione shots to prevent this. Other possible side effects may include abdominal cramps, bloating, trouble breathing, and rashes. An allergic reaction is also possible, which may appear as hives, itchiness, wheezing, and swelling. If any of the side effects worsen or persist, or you think that you are having an allergic reaction, it is important to see a doctor right away or dial 911.

​

What are the Foods That Contain Glutathione?

​

Getting sufficient amounts of glutathione from dietary sources is essential for optimal health. 

There are several foods that are good sources of glutathione, including 

• Fruits and Vegetables such as avocados, kale, garlic cloves, spinach, oranges, and strawberries

• Cruciferous Vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts

• Legumes such as beans, lentils, and chickpeas

• Nuts like almonds and walnuts

• Fish such as salmon, sardines, and tuna

• Eggs

• Dairy products such as yogurt and milk

• Meats including beef liver; seeds like flaxseeds and chia seeds

• Grains including quinoa and wheat germ

​

2. LIPO B12 

​

Lipotropic B12 shots are injections for weight loss that target fat deposits and accelerate the metabolism of fats. Lipotropic injections enriched with a dose of vitamin B12 are often used as an aid in weight loss and successfully complement a weight loss program based on a balanced diet and physical activity.

​

Ingredients

​

Vitamin B12 lipotropic injections contain a potent combination of essential nutrients meant to help you achieve your weight loss goals while turning fat into energy and providing mental clarity.

Methionine – an essential amino acid that contributes to fat metabolism, lowers cholesterol levels, and helps your body release fatty proteins;

Inositol – an important member of the beneficial B vitamins, removes fat from the liver to prevent fat storage, combats slow metabolism, and reduces blood cholesterol;

Choline – a nutrient that contributes to the redistribution of fat, aids in reducing liver fat, and prevents cholesterol build-up within arteries;

Vitamin B12 – an essential vitamin that contributes to the metabolic processes and the proper metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, ensures a boost of energy, relieves irritability, and improves concentration.

​

Benefits

​

The effects of lipo injections are enriched with the healing properties of vitamin B12 to help you in your weight loss journey and provide abundant energy to sustain your weight loss regimen. While their main benefit revolves around their potential to metabolize fat into energy, lipotropic shots boast several other health benefits:

• Higher metabolism rate

• Improved fat burning process

• Increased energy levels

• Appetite suppression

• Reduced cholesterol levels

• Improved mood

• Healthier nervous system

​

Lipo shots are used to help patients who follow a weight loss plan to get rid of fat deposits stuck in areas like their belly, inner thighs, hips, buttocks, and double chin. The combination between the lipotropic ingredients and B-12 shots contributes to the breakdown of the fat stuck in these trouble areas and proves to be a reliable additional weight loss support for people who are already using weight loss methods and have a healthy diet. The shot is administered as an intramuscular injection in the arm or in other areas that contain subcutaneous fatty tissues, such as the abdomen or buttocks.

​

3. Vitamin C

​

Vitamin C plays an important role in our well-being and is involved in numerous body processes.

​

• Boosts the immune system

• Increases energy levels

• Prevents cell damage

• Accelerates wound healing

• Reduces fatigue

• Contributes to collagen production thus improving fine lines and wrinkles

• Improves skin texture and look

• Produces neurotransmitters

• May reduce the adverse effects of chemotherapy drugs and cancer treatment

​

Vitamin C injections are generally safe for most individuals. While vitamin C is generally well-tolerated, there are some cases where caution should be exercised. For example, individuals with a history of kidney disorders or kidney stones may need to avoid high-dose vitamin C injections, as excess vitamin C can increase the risk of kidney stone formation.

It’s also essential to disclose any allergies you may have, particularly if you are allergic to ascorbic acid (vitamin C) or any other ingredients commonly found in vitamin C injections. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult with their healthcare provider before considering vitamin C injections to ensure they’re a safe option for both the mother and the baby.

Additionally, individuals with certain medical conditions, such as specific blood disorders or conditions that affect iron metabolism, may require careful monitoring or adjustment of the dosage when receiving vitamin C injections.
