Energy Facts: Reduced is Good!!!...

1. All molecules contain energy, stored in the molecular structure itself.

2. A portion of that energy, called free energy, can be used to do work.

3. A chemical reaction that adds free energy to a molecule is said to reduce the molecule.

4. Removing free energy from a molecule is called oxidation.

5. When reaction results in transfer of free energy from one molecule to another, we call it oxidation/reduction, or redox reaction.

6. In a redox reaction, one or more molecules is reduced (gains energy) while one or more molecules is oxidized (losses energy).

Peroxynitrite is Truly Pernicous!...

Martin L. Pall, PhD, professor of Biochemistry and Basic medical Science at Washington State University stated: "Peroxynitrite reacts with and inactivates several of the enzymes in mitochondria so that mitochondrial and energy metabolism dysfunction is one of the most important consequences of elevated peroxynitrite."

Translation: When the mitochondria have suffered enough free radical damage as to become dysfunctional, energy production is impaired. Your cells do not get the amount of energy they need to function properly. Your cells may function at a level below the optimum although you probably won't feel it.

There is yet one more free-radical mitochondrial consequence as a result of low glutathione levels that you "will" be aware of. Richard Van Konynenburg, PhD, wrote: The resulting partial blockades in the Krebs cycles and the respiratory chains in the red, slow-twitch skeletal muscle cells decease their rate of production of ATP. Since ATP is what powers muscle contractions, the lack of it produces physical fatigue. It becomes chronic because GSH[glutathione] remains depleted."

You might think of free radicals as a hand of marauders circling an oil tanker, preparing to hijack the precious commodity that fuels cars and trains and pretty much the entire Western World. Glutathione molecules could be considered a group of highly efficient bodyguards - handling out electrons and turning vicious marauders into mild-mannered bystanders.

The Role of Glutathione in Energy Production...

You've been told that glutathione increases energy on a cellular level. How does it do this? Since glutathione is not the actual fuel for the "engines" or "energy factories" of our cells, what part does it play in the creation of cellular energy?

These are questions we would all like answers to, but not if they make us feel like we're back in Chemistry 101!

Hopefully, what you read below will provide a non-technical explanation for these questions.

Oxidation is like a flame, wonderful when harnessed, dangerous when out of control. When we are young, the oxidation necessary for energy production is highly efficient with only a small amount of oxygen not utilized. Even this minor oxygen loss (1-3%) unfortunately results in the production of free radicals. And this is where glutathione comes in to neutralize those free radicals.

A one-to-three percent oxygen loss causing free-radicals production doesn't sound too bad, does it? But say you are no longer 20 years of age and correspondingly, your cellular mitochondria are not as efficient as they once were. More and more free radicals are generated in the oxidative energy process and they are, in turn, damaging the
mitochondria themselves.

The powerful antioxidant, glutathione, quenches a number of free radicals, including the highly dangerous hydroxyl radical by donating an electron. Glutathioneitself does not become a free radical even though it has given up an electron.

No wonder it is called the Master Antioxidant!
Now that it is quenched, the extremely harmful hydroxyl radical is halted from its real dirty work: generating other free radicals like peroxynitrite and the radicals of oxidized fats (lipids).

Glutathione has just halted a literal cascade of free radicals by quenching the hydroxyl free radical. But you need to know just what a favor glutathione has done for you in preventing peroxynitrite production.
