Glutathione IV Therapy Birmingham AL

Glutathione is an antioxidant capable of preventing cellular damage caused by free radicals, heavy metals, and peroxides. It also helps to detoxify polluting chemicals that are naturally created by your body.

Glutathione levels naturally decease as we age. Lower glutathione levels are often associated with poor health and is believed to be associated with cancer, diabetes, and Parkinson's Disease.

IV glutathione therapy is the preferred method of introduction by physicians as studies have shown that taking it orally is not as effective due to the breakdown by stomach enzymes.

IV Glutathione therapy also hydrates the skin and reduces melanin production, making your skin brighter. Additionally, IV glutathione therapy has shown to minimize acne, blemishes, pimples, and scars.
