Liver Detox - Phase 1 and Phase 2

PRESENTED BY GLUTATHIONE PATHWAYCOM LIVER DETOY How DOES YOUR LIVER GET RID OF ALL THE JUNK MESSING WITH YOUR HEALTH? Phase y oxygen and enzymes "BURN" toxins: oxidation Fat soluble chemicals and hormones are processed by cytochrome P450. over 100 enzymes are involved and the results are still often TOXIC until they reach the NEXT PHASE... Phuase 2 "Conjugation Pathways" The damaging chemicals from phase 1 are now combined with sulfur, amino acids + organic acids to be excreted as bile. This is the phase inhibited by alcohol, acetaminophen, nutrient deficiencies, and other burdens. Most important: cysteine and Methionine. Balance! It's common for phase 1 liver detox to occur more rapidly than phase 2 can keep up with. This leaves chemicals that are potentially MORE damaging than they used to be, waiting to be removed by phase 2. Keep phase 2 speedy: limit alcohol intake supplement glutathione and precursors boost cysteine and methionine eat sulfur rich foods ( fish / poultry / nuts/seeds / beans ) consume bioflavonoids ( herbs / fruit / vegetables / tea) sources: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_metabolism http://www.doctor-recommended-stress-relief.com/Liver-Detoxification.html http://www.liverdoctor.com/liver/the-1iver-and-detoxification/ http://balancedconcepts.net/1iver_phases_detox_paths.pdf PRESENTED BY: GLUTATHIONE PATHWAY.cOM
