What is MaxGXL? MaxGXL T is a complex nutritional supplement with an ideal combination of nutrients needed to facilitate Glutathione replenishment. Read more: http://www.behealthybewealthy.maxtrax4u.com/ What is Glutathione? Simply put, glutathione (GSH) is the body's master antioxidant. It is a small protein produced naturally in our cells. It functions both as an antioxidant and an antitoxin. Although more than 60,000 papers on the beneficial effects of glutathione replacement have been published, it is largely ignored by mainstream medicine. Soon, the importance of glutathione will be widely recognized because it has the ability to boost the immune system and fight off the damage of free radicals on the cells. Modern research shows individuals with low levels of glutathione are susceptible to chronic illness. Decreased levels of glutathione can be caused by continual stress upon the immune system. A lowered immune system and can bring about illness and disease. This is a ferocious cycle. While a productive immune system needs glutathione, a weakened immune system slows the production of glutathione. Glutathione has been shown to; Slow aging Detoxify the liver Improve liver function Strengthen the immune system Reduce the chances of developing cancer Improve mental functions (concentration) Increase energy and improve heart and lung function - just to name a few. Why choose MaxGXL over run of the mill glutathione supplements... $this product, in my opinion, represents the single most important breakthrough in health that we will witness in my life time, and this product will revolutionize, change and transform the practice of medicine world wide and make Dr Robert Keller more famous than Jonas Salk who created the polio vaccine. John Nelson MD, Immediate Past (159th) President American Medical Association Listen Here to hear Dr. John C. Nelson, former president of the American Medical Association sharing his opinion and experiences on MaxGXL Dr. R.H. Keller, MD MS FACP, Medical & Research Director of The Biodoron institute of advanced medicine and the CEO and director of research of Vit-Immune, Inc. had a distinguished academic career after medical school at Temple University and training in Internal Medicine, Immunology and Hematology at the University of Rochester and the Mayo Clinic. During a fellowship and subsequent Assistant Professorship at the Mayo Graduate School of Medicine, he introduced a new laboratory technology to identify cells at the Mayo Clinic. Moving to Milwaukee, he became a faculty member in the Departments of Medicine, Pediatrics, Biophysics and Health Science at the Medical College of Wisconsin (Marquette University) and the University of Wisconsin, where he rose to level of Professor. He was also awarded two career development awards (Clinical Investigatorships) and the Superior Performance Award (for research) by the Veteran's Administration where he served as a Staff Physician and Director of the Marcus Center for Immunology Research. During his academic tenure, he was awarded over 2 million dollars in research grants from both the NIH and VA; served on the scientific review panels for the NIH and VA; published over 100 original articles, invited reviews and book chapters in Immunology, Hematology and Medicine; was awarded two patents and served many consultantships including NASA during the Apollo Program In 1994, Dr. Robert H. Keller founded The BIODORON Institute of Advanced Medicine, a state-of-the-art medical clinic specializing in cutting edge treatment for immune system disorders and anti-aging. After reviewing subject lab results for years, Dr. Keller noticed a trend. He kept seeing significantly low levels of uric acid in subjects with immune disorders. He decided to explore this finding, and his initial research concluded that uric acid is the last antioxidant at the body's disposal when all the normal antioxidants have been exhausted. As Dr. Keller has always been a strong advocate of nutrition, he went back in the literature, seeking the answer to one question: If uric acid is the body's last defense, then what is the first? His investigation led him to a substance called glutathione. Glutathione (GSH): The Master Antioxidant Dr. Keller discovered that the most prevalent, powerful, and multifunctional antioxidant in the human body – employed by every organ – is glutathione. Glutathione (GSH) is a small protein produced naturally in our cells if the requisite precursors are present. It functions both as an antioxidant and an antitoxin and is a major defense system against illness and aging. Our glutathione level actually indicates our state of health and can predict longevity. It has been suggested that in the future, GSH levels will be closely monitored. There are over 60,000 medical articles currently published on GSH, yet most health professionals have only a vague idea of its significance. In the near future the importance of glutathione will be widely recognized. The Test... After learning of the importance of GSH, Dr. Keller needed to test the hypothesis that the levels of GSH in subjects with immune disorders were, in fact, severely diminished. To get a current and accurate gauge of a subject's GSH level, Dr. Keller knew the test must measure GSH inside of lymphocytes (activated cells); however, no such lab test existed. Using a state-of-the-art medical laboratory, Dr. Keller and his team of scientists developed a proprietary lab test to measure levels of GSH inside the lymphocytes. The tests confirmed the hypothesis. People who are stressed, aging, lacking sleep, or with any prolonged illness, utilize glutathione at an accelerated rate resulting in decreased bodily stores, weakened defenses, and increased risk of illnesses, including accelerated aging. The Challenge... It was clear that the GSH levels needed to be replenished in these subjects. But how? Glutathione is produced naturally from three amino acids: glycine, glutamine, and cysteine. These essential precursors of GSH must be able to make it from the mouth to the gut, then through the cells walls, and subsequently the mitochondrial membrane. There lies the challenge. Unfortunately we can’t raise our body’s GSH level with ordinary foods or pure L-glutathione. Even though glutathione is present in many fruits, vegetables, and meats, this protein is instantly broken down during digestion into its three amino acids. Cysteine, or N- acetylcysteine (NAC), is the most important of these precursors and is the main limiting factor necessary for the body to manufacture GSH. Alone in the gut after digestion, cysteine is treated as a free radical and rapidly oxidized. Consequently, only a very small percentage reaches our bloodstream and cells. Furthermore, GSH is always in great demand and is rapidly consumed, so any GSH that is made will be used up quickly making it even more difficult to increase this level. The Solution: MaxGXL™... After years of research and development, Dr. Keller developed MaxGXL™, a product that contained the necessary components of glutathione that when absorbed into the body, stimulate the body’s own production of glutathione to be used by every cell.

No doubt researchers puzzle over this question but usually on a molecular basis and there may be much that could be learned directly from the patients themselves. Logic says there should be some characteristic or history that links these folks, something that sets them apart from others who do not get the wet form. This, you would think, might be ferretted out by asking questions and looking for dominant answers that are common to the 'wets' but not to dry AMD sufferers. One reason this approach does not been vigorously promoted by the medical profession is that questions are often counter-intuitiveseeming totally unrelated to the goal, immaterial and therefore not worth asking. If, as a wild example, it is eventually found that a majority of wet AMD patients have one particular blood type, the question would never have been asked by workers in the field as it is impossible to see a relationship between one and the other. A second reason for opthalmology workers to shy away from research through questions is the tendency these days to relate all difficult situations to genetics. They may be right, but in the meanwhile there are a lot of 'wet' sufferers out there who have personal information, and time is being lost in not investigating it. What this means is that those with wet AMD may have to set up a questionnaire process themselves and a means for its analysis. On the chance that it might reveal an unexpected similarity among the 'wets' it would provide an appealing new avenue for research. Questions cannot be made too voluminous as to put off those with poor sight; preferrably there should be some element of relevance to them. Wise heads would be needed to help in devising a suitable list of questions. A few that might be considered follow in no particular order giving, in square brackets, a justification for inclusion. 1, do you suffer fron Reynaud's Syndrome i.e. have particularly cold hands and feet in winter? [this condition may mean deficiencies in the smallest capillaries getting blood to the extremities; small blood vessels are found serving the retina may also be similarly affected. The body may try to remedy the situation by creating additional blood capillaries in the retina.] 2. do you frequently have dizziness and temporary vision loss on rising suddenly after bending down or have a tendency to faint if standing for a long time? [this may occur if insufficient oxygenated blood is able to reach the brain and optic nerve. A long history of this type of episode and oxygen deprivation may be damaging to retinal RPE cells] 3. do you have an allergy that causes seasonal or continuous eye irritation? [inflammation in tissue around eye cells may have a cumulative chronic effect] 4. have you had any serious condition such as cancer or an infection requiring antibiotics? [disease prompts the immune systen into action and in some cases immune cells can attack sensitive body cells such as those of the retina in addition to the disease-producing cells] 5. have you had rubella (German measles)? 6. have you had measles? 7. have you had scarlet fever? 8. have you had mumps? [childhood diseases are not always well understood and may have unrealised long-term consequences. Older people may not have had the benefit of modern immunization programmes] 9. have you had chicken pox? Have you had shingles? [although chicken pox is mostly a childhood disease, it is thought to remain coverty in the body throughout life and can re-emerge later as shingles. The latter involves irritation of certain nerve endings, usually in the trunk. Retinal cells in effect are also nerve endings.] 10. do you have blue eyes? [brown eye colouration is believed to give greater protection against ultra-violet rays that blue eyes lack. The relative proportions of each may be found to vary from the general public.] 11. have you been diagnosed as having an auto-immune disease? [the gradual but steady selective snuffing out of cone cells in the retina and not the rod cells has the appearance of an auto-immune condition.] 12. do you have total cholesterol or LDL cholesterol readings in the upper part of the range? [cholesterol is one of the materials that has been found to comprise drusen deposits in the retina.] 13. do you develop plaque on the teeth that requires removal? [people with plaque tend to have alkaline saliva, those without test as being more acidic. The difference may have some relevance in other parts of the body.] 14. is your blood pressure consistently above 130/80? [high blood pressure is considered harmful to the circulatory system which included the capillaries behind the retina] Once a suitable list of questions is agreed it needs to be placed along with an explanation on a site where it will be found by those with wet AMD. No useful purpose would be served if only a few dozen interested parties respond - it needs many hundres to give possible results statistical validity. The site of an agency that has an interest in vision and would be prepared to act as recipient of completed questionaires may be preferable. |
