From pesticides, to herbicides, to plastics, to heavy metals… from the moment we are conceived until we die, our bodies are under attack.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">However... there is some good news!!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There’s something our liver makes that should be called ‘The World’s Number One Velcro,’ and that’s glutathione! It acts as a secondary filter to take toxins out of our blood… and essentially acts like Velcro.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">But, here’s the catch… because of all the carbs and PUFAs we consume, resulting in a fatty liver, not enough glutathione is being made. This is a major problem.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tune into today’s podcast to hear some of the things we can do to increase glutathione in our bloodstream!</span></p>
