Two old Italian sayings come to mind:
If everyone drank more whey the doctors would be bankrupt;
If you want to live a long time, eat vegetables and drink more
whey.
Without using raw whey as your main source of liquid and drinking
several gallons daily you can't get quite enough glutathione
precursors naturally. It's much easier to just take a daily whey
shake using the powder.
But aside fom the crucial glutathione precursors it's possible to
get enough of the other antioxidants and most other nutrients
from your diet by carefully selecting the food from a worldwide
larder as opposed to a regional one. Nature doesn't easily yield
optimal nutrition in a single region; 'barely adquate for
survival' is the amounts it gives so it takes diligence to do it
naturally, and some people don't care for some of the foods,
brewer's yeast kelp and aloe smoothies for example.
My selenium supplement is concentrated by yeast; I think it's
selenomethionine in this form. You can make you own by adding a
sprinkle of selenium to the yeast water when you grow your yeast.
A new broccoli coming out of Califonia concentrates selenium from
the ground water; I don't know if it's on the market yet. Brazil
nuts from Brazil (and not fom Central America) contain selenium,
and I understand walnuts do too, if they're grown in selenium-
rich soil; you have to know which region the nuts are from.
Did that help a little?
