Glutathione Deficient States
Blood test can warn of heart attack By Steve Sternberg
Doctors ushered in a new era of heart disease detection Thursday with a report of a blood test that can better predict which chest-pain sufferers will have heart attacks. If the results of this and other studies hold up, the test will offer doctors a way to diagnose an imminent heart attack and act to prevent it…

“A second study by researchers at Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany, showed for the first time that low levels of the enzyme glutathione also suggest a coming heart attack.”

Glutathione Deficient States Brain Cells Show Gender Difference! Washington May 05, 2004 3:37:19 PM IST
Injured brain cells die differently in females and males and that means the two genders may need different treatments for brain injuries, according to a study done by Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. Conducting a research on several animals, the researchers found that levels of glutathione, a molecule that protects brain cells from death when they're deprived of oxygen, remain constant in females who've suffered a brain injury. However in males with the same kind of injury, levels of glutathione drop by as much as 80 percent.
Brain cells die much more quickly when there's a drop in glutathione levels reports Health Scout.”
