Hi, Al.

I hadn't heard of this product before reading your post.

About all I could find out about it with a search on the internet is

that it is a liposomal form of glutathione. It appears from the brief

descriptions I found to be similar to other liposomal forms of

glutathione on the market. I think there are at least three others,

which we have discussed in this group in the past. I don't know whether

this product offers advantages over the others or not.

Generally speaking, I think that the liposomal approach is a good way

to get glutathione into the cells, and that can be helpful to quite a

few people. However, in CFS, people haven't found this to be a lasting

solution to the problem of glutathione depletion. If you stop

supplementing, the glutathione level apparently drops again.

In late 2004, I came to understand why this occurs, from the work done

by Jill et al., in autism. It occurs because of a partial block

in the methylation cycle, which lies upstream of glutathione synthesis

in the sulfur metabolism. This partial block forms a vicious circle

with glutathione depletion, and that is what causes CFS to be a chronic

disorder. In order to correct the chronic glutathione depletion, one

has to correct the methylation cycle block.

This is what the " simplified treatment approach " was designed in

January, 2007, to do, and since that time, it has proved to be helpful

to about two-thirds of the PWCs who have tried it. The recovery from

CFS with this treatment is slow, presumably because of the limited

rates at which toxins that have accumulated during the illness can be

excreted from the body. I don't yet know how far the recovery will go

in people who have had CFS for an extended time, but there are at least

several hundred people worldwide on this type of treatment now, and

several physicians using it in their practices, so we should learn more

about that as time goes on. Dr. Neil in Springfield, MO, is

conducting a research study in his practice, using this treatment on 30

women who are diagnosed with both CFS and FM. We are currently

analyzing the 3-month data for this study, and the women are

approaching 6 months on it. I will post results when I am able to, but

so far I would say that it looks very encouraging.

As you probably know, our moderator has asked that discussion of this

treatment approach be moved to the cfs-yasko group, so if you want to

discuss it more, I suggest moving the discussion over there. There are

also detailed descriptions of the glutathione depletion--methylation

cycle block hypothesis and the treatment in the files section of that

group's website.
