Here's my one www.amazon.co.uk...=pd_sim_sbs_ce_3

It has been very reliable and have used it countless times, you can see it visibly shaking the liquid to the point drops fly up from the surface! I've noticed it tends to gradually warm the liquid up though so I have to keep an eye on temps so as not to damage the vitamin C (I think this is the same for most UCs)

Glad to hear of your positive results.

I find it very interesting that you increased the AA to 1.5 tablespoons.

An excellent idea to make it a stronger dose. Does anyone else see a problem with that? I don't.

I believe the issue of those not noticing any effects is because the need more.

I think I might just make my next batch like that too

Julie,

I can't say that the extra AA was encapsulated because the concoction was noticeably more sour. I'm not sure what part of the process affected this batch differently. I'm not sure that extra half tablespoon would have such a drastic impact. It may have been the 2oz dosage but I also find that hard to believe since 1.5 oz of the previous batch had no effect at all.

On another note. I gave my son a tablespoon of the first batch and because of the horrible taste, he said there was NO WAY he was taking anymore Have people had positive results mixing this with orange juice or any other kind of juice to mask the flavor. I don't terribly mind the bad taste if the end result is positive, but I would definitely not mind if it tasted better either

Yes, I believe it's okay to mix with a little juice... and this is why.

I've been giving it to my 80 year old mother in orange juice every morning (2 tablespoons). She can't taste it.

This woman who lives with us and goes to bed every evening by 7:00 pm is now up until 9 - 10 pm, has cleaned out her closet, organized all her clothes, cleaned her bedroom (she has never done this in the 3 years of living with us) and is now happily cateloge shopping for xmas in December.

I think I may need to cut her back - she has waaaaay too much energy now.

The sunflower lecithin I get is like honey in consistency. I take my 3 tables spoons of it and mix it with boiling water (1 cup) straight into blender while hot. I blend it for 10 minutes, refridgerate and let it soak either the whole day or over night, take out again and blend again for like another 10 minutes, This soaking and long time of blending gives a very good uniform end result.

Ironically, glutathione supplements may actually interfere with your body’s own glutathione production. The human body is programmed to self-produce its own antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione and SOD (superoxide dismutase, the first antioxidant mobilized by your cells for defense). And synthetic supplementation of these compounds actually signal your body to stop its own production – which leaves you dependent on synthetic substances (supplements or drugs).

Glutathione levels can be enhanced somewhat by taking supplements such as alpha lipoic acid, which is known to regenerate glutathione. Alpha lipoic acid also helps to regenerate vitamins C and E so that they remain active longer in your body. Red meat and organ meats are the best dietary source of alpha lipoic acid. Glutamine can be used as a supplement since it’s a direct precursor to glutathione. However, there is quite a bit of evidence it is poorly absorbed.

There is also evidence that vitamin D increases intracellular glutathione.

Lastly, I'd previously expressed an interest in LET glutathione, as a few other's here have. But after doing more research, I'm reversing course and nixing the idea primarily based on the info I found on the Mercola website.

(same source - Mercola)

Being as I already take alpha lipoic acid and vitamin D-3, I appreciate knowing their added benefits. Now I'm kinda wishing I had that $18+ I spent on a bottle of glutathione caps.

Oh, I forgot to mention that someone who had made a batch of LET glutathione remarked that it smelled like sulphur and tasted awful. No can do sulphur smell......yuck!!
