GLUTATHIONE and fruits and vegetables

Info sources: 

GLUTATHIONE (pronounced “gloota-thigh-own”) is the most important molecule you need to stay healthy and prevent aging, cancer, heart disease, dementia and more, and necessary to treat everything from autism to Alzheimer’s disease. I called it the mother of all antioxidants.

FRUITS AND VEGETABLES

Fruits and vegetables are also good dietary sources of glutathione. 

In order to receive the most glutathione from fruits and vegetables, it is important to consume them fresh, not cooked or processed. Cooking and processing will decrease the bioavailability of glutathione in these foods. In addition, glutathione levels vary widely among fruits and vegetables due to environmental factors and the plant’s phase of development. 

Fruits and vegetables containing the most glutathione per serving include: 

asparagus, 
potatoes, 
peppers, 
carrots, 
onion, 
broccoli, 
avocados, 
squash,
spinach, 
garlic, 
tomatoes, 
grapefruit, 
apples, 
oranges, 
peaches,
bananas,
melon.
