Those who read something of the previous papers relating to oxidative degeneration, will realise the importance of glutathione in forming radical scavengers and in the deactivation of toxins.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid (as mentioned recently by recently by Brooks Bradley), is seen as the most important ingestible anti-oxidant. It has the ability to regenerate other anti-oxidants and most importantly glutathione. A book which discusses Lipoic acid in depth can be found via this link : http://www.lipoic.com/preface.html Other sustances which increase the presence of glutathione in the cell such as Oltipraz : http://www.mskcc.org/rande///pharmacology/143.html also have anti viral characteristics, including the retro-viruses, and strong cancer prevention properties. Other dithiolthiones, like Oltipraz are found in the cruciferous plants ( arugula, bok choy, broccoli, broccoli sprouts, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, Swiss chard, collards, kale, kohlrabi, mustard greens, radishes, rutabaga, turnips, turnip greens and watercress.)
