Glutathione, NAC and Curcumin

Protect 1 combines the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of Glutathione, NAC, and Curcumin for infection and blood vessel protection.

Glutathione

Glutathione is a potent anti-oxidant found naturally in your body, made from amino acids that can help to:

  • Boost your immune system and helps fight against infection
  • Build and repair tissue in your body
  • protect your body from cell damage caused by free radicals

Long-term high blood sugar levels can reduce the amount of glutathione in the body. This can lead to cell and tissue damage. Studies show that supplementing with glutathione can reduce cell damage in people with uncontrolled diabetes.

N-acetyl cysteine (NAC)

NAC is another potent antioxidant that helps to boost glutathione levels in your body. In doing so, it may improve immune function in many diseases.

  • Scientific evidence has shown that NAC can help protect against diabetic complications that can arise from nerve damage through its antioxidant action
  • NAC can also help protect against diabetic complications that affect your heart

Curcumin

Curcumin is the main ingredient in the widely known and used spice, turmeric and has been studied in science for its medicinal properties. Many high-quality studies show that curcumin has major benefits for your body and brain, due to its powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Research has confirmed the important role of curcumin in diabetes:

  • It could positively impact insulin resistance, high blood sugar levels, high cholesterol levels, and cell damage in the pancreas (the organ important for blood glucose control)
  • It can help treat diabetic complications affecting the kidneys and eyes
  • It has the potential to help stabilise blood sugar levels and help make diabetes more manageable

Other health benefits of curcumin include:

  • Boosting the immune system
  • It can help treat diabetic complications affecting the kidneys and eyes
  • Boosting levels of a hormone in the brain that can help fight various degenerative processes in your brain

Alpha Lipoic Acid

Protection of nerve damage and reversal of pre-diabetes

Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is known to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties - both of which are useful in managing diabetes and its complications. Large clinical studies support the role of ALA in treating nerve damage/neuropathy, as well as helping to improve insulin sensitivity, lower blood sugar, improve blood vessel tone, and decrease inflammation and oxidative stress. In diabetes, 'neuropathy' refers to nerve damage accumulated over years or decades as a result of increased oxidative stress and reductions in blood flow. When occurring in the legs and feet, neuropathy can lead to pain, tingling, and numbness. Nerve damage can also develop in the nerves of the internal organs - leading to problems with the heart or digestive system. Because of its antioxidant properties and its ability to improve blood-vessel circulation to the nerves, ALA can help with pain, burning, itching, tingling, and numbness in arms and legs from nerve damage due to diabetes. Prediabetes is when your blood sugar levels are above normal but not high enough to confirm diabetes. If not managed, prediabetes can progress to type 2 diabetes. ALA can help protect that progression as it can help reduce high insulin levels and positively impact body weight and body fat.
