Guest guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 If it is juice from freshly squeezed lemons and olive oil (hopefully oil that has not been processed above body temp.) then it also serves as a very mild liver flush which can be helpful in cases of cancer, depending on just how much you are taking.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 You have to do your own due diligence, write, email, call, on the brands that are available in your area or on the web. Generally speaking, olive oils that are crushed and not pressed, where the oil is simply decanted off, are very low heat. But don't assume, make sure you ask.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2003 Report Share Posted October 25, 2003 I can field the question of glutathione as a supplement.... Glutathione for one is digested; very little, less than 10%, gets into the blood. What gets into the blood may be useful in the serum all right but none of that - 0% - enters the cells where 90% is needed. Instead, take precursors for the glutathione production. They are plentiful in cold-processed and raw products, especially undenatured whey powder because it is so concentrated. Plus selenium 200-600 mcg daily.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2003 Report Share Posted October 25, 2003 Duncan, Do you think that the enzyme based tablets make them special or different in any way? Years ago I read a book by Lee called " Radiation Protection Manual " an in it she made some fantastic claims about the ability of these enzymes to protect cells from the effects of ionizing radiation.
