Why You Can’t Detoxify

A lot of us don't really have a good ability to detoxify with glutathione. And why is that? You know, 500 years ago, 10,000 years ago, all the toxins were kind of underground. Heavy metals come from coal which we've dug up and we created energy from it and it's created the industrial revolution, but it's poison dust and all that stuff goes in the atmosphere. We have all this toxins that we have to deal with. And, and so a lot of us don't have a good array of these detox genes. They're called various kinds of glutathione producing genes. So there's enzymes in your body that turn one chemical to another and they, they glutathione and recycling all these different genes for glutathione, glutathione peroxidase, they're basically coding for enzymes to make more glutathione. But I mean, if you didn't need a lot of glutathione, you know, 500 years ago. So some of us don't have that. About half us don't have the right genes. And in fact, I read one study years ago where half the people who were in most hospitals have this problem. So it's a big contributor to chronic illness in a lot of ways.
