Glutathione and Infertility

True to my word, here is another impact glutathione can have on health. Infertility. Infertility rates in this country are on the rise. Somewhere around 9% of childbearing couples experience infertility. The United States has one of the highest rates. So what’s going on with Americans that we can no longer get pregnant? Surely it must be something in our environment, some way we’re living our lives. Well, it is.

Did you know at least 11% of infertility has no known cause? It’s called unexplained infertility. This means the doctor can’t figure out what’s going on. He can’t find anything wrong.

Oxidative stress is the most overlooked cause of infertility, in fact many doctors don’t know much about it. Oxidative stress is a process in the body that results in free radicals. Free radicals are highly reactive molecules that can be damaging to the inside of our bodies. Disease such as Alzheimer’s, cancer, and yep, infertility can be caused by oxidative stress.

When these free radicals are present in male and female reproductive organs, infertility can result.

Oxidative stress can be linked to PCOS, endometriosis, and deformed sperm.

So what triggers oxidative stress? While free radicals can be made in our bodies from normal processes within our bodies, they can also be made from, pollution. We are living in a toxic soup. These toxins can create free radicals in the body and many of us are incredibly toxic.

So what do we do? This is where antioxidants come into play. Antioxidants scavenge free radicals and protect our internal tissues. Guess what the body’s master antioxidant is? Glutathione. And did you know that patch is the most efficient and effective way to increase glutathione levels in the body? It sure is.

Not only can glutathione help in cases of infertility, it can help with overall health as well.

Acupuncture has also been shown effective in treating cases of infertility, and it’s quite interesting that the Lifewave patches are often likened to needleless acupuncture.

So, the next time you meet someone with infertility, tell them about Lifewave.
