As wildfire smoke continues to blanket large parts of Canada this summer, many people are feeling the effects, especially in their lungs. Irritation, inflammation, and allergy-like symptoms are becoming more common. In my 35 years as a natural health practitioner and functional nutritionist, I’ve never seen a supplement work as quickly and reliably for lung relief as GSH+ Ultimate Glutathione.
I’ve personally witnessed it help people breathe easier, sometimes within hours, by calming the lungs and easing that ‘state of alarm’ caused by smoke inhalation.
Why Glutathione Matters for Your Lungs
Your lungs are the main site of oxygen exchange, making them highly vulnerable to oxidative stress. Glutathione, often called the body's “master antioxidant,” plays a vital role in protecting lung tissue by neutralizing that stress and cooling the inflammation triggered by irritants like wildfire smoke.
If your glutathione levels are depleted, the ‘flames’ of inflammation are left to smoulder. This applies not just to wildfire exposure, but to smokers and vapers as well—anyone inhaling harmful particles.
This isn’t just theory. During last year’s intense wildfires in Kelowna, IV glutathione treatments were prioritized for frontline firefighters, leaving no access for the general public.
Why GSH+ Is Different?
What sets GSH+ Ultimate Glutathione apart is that it supports your body in producing its own glutathione, where it matters most, inside your cells. It contains a full spectrum of 16 carefully chosen precursors and cofactors, including a uniquely effective form of NAC called NACET, which is up to 10 times more bioavailable than standard NAC.
When smoke exposure is high, I typically recommend 2 capsules, three times per day (morning, afternoon, and early evening, away from food) for a day or two until relief kicks in. Then reduce to 2 capsules twice daily, and eventually return to the maintenance dose of 3 capsules per day.
More Than Just Lung Support
Glutathione does much more than protect your lungs. It plays a central role in energy production, immune health, and detoxification - all areas where oxidative stress takes a toll.
For additional support during wildfire season, consider combining GSH+ with Inflame Ease Synergy if you feel like your lungs are inflamed, or Radical Defense Synergy if your allergies are getting worse.
Be well, stay safe, and breathe easier.
