Answer:
GLUTATHIONE is a dietary supplement used as an antioxidant to help protect the body from many diseases and conditions. It is also used to treat infertility (difficulty getting pregnant), cancer, cataracts, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Glutathione is used to detoxify various chemicals from the body. Other names for Glutathione include: Gamma-glutamylcysteinylglycine and GSH. Ask your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist if you need more information about this medicine or if any information in this leaflet concerns you. Side Effects:
Stop taking your medicine right away and talk to your doctor if you have any of the following side effects. Your medicine may be causing these symptoms which may mean you are allergic to it. - Breathing problems or tightness in your throat or chest
- Chest pain
- Skin hives, rash, or itchy or swollen skin
- Other Side Effects:
You may have the following side effects, but this medicine may also cause other side effects. Tell your doctor if you have side effects that you think are caused by this medicine. -- Zinc deficiency was seen in long term use of a combination product containing Glutathione.-
Glutathione is neither good nor bad for thyroid problems. Glutathione is inert.It doesn`t alter thyroid function in any way.
Glutathione is an anti-oxidant. It wont have any side effect, unless you consume in high amount
because your sister has a degree of hyper thyrodism ,so her metabolism rate is high.her oxidative stress is also high due to the high amount of metabolites formed in her body therefore i advise her to take glutathione as it will decrease the risk of many possible problems that may occur.i ask GOD for your sister %26 for every sick person to help %26cure them ....................Amen
