Sudo Gout or Pseudo Gout What ever way you misspell it or spell it, pseudo gout is often misdiagnosed. It may look like gout, feel like gout but is not gout. If not treated, it can be just as bad if not worse.
There is not a lot of research on glutathione and either type of gout. It does appear that it may manage and even be very beneficial. Of course, to find out if glutathione is an underlying essential element to your health, you will need to boost your intercellular glutathione.
What are types of medical grade cysteines and what aspect of health do they promote?
Although it seems counter intuitive, this one little molecule can help with a number of different disease processes.
Check it out.
Sickle cell anemia has a number of standard treatments.
A 1998 study should give pause about both current treatment and treatment options.
The study found in Blood showed that boosting glutathione resulted in a significant conversion of irreversibly sickled cells back into biconcave shape.
This means that boosting glutathione could help. More importantly, drugs that deplete glutathione could actually make the condition worse. This means that acetaminophen should be reconsidered as a means of pain relief.
A side effect of boosting glutathione is also pain relief.
Maybe this should be looked into more deeply.

There is a gout and glutathione connection. It is a work in progress. The link is the first of many that will connect the dots. It starts with the answer to the question, how do you
Define Gout? More importantly, how do doctors define gout? It is covered in this link.

An often underlying or ulterior cause of disease processes is improper hydration. In other words, we do not have enough water in our body to maintain optimal health.
There are a number of theories that suggest that diseases or conditions like peptic ulcers, asthma, back pain, rheumatoid arthritis, allergies, and lupus can all be treated with just drinking water.
Memory enhancement, boosting our immunity, stress reduction, even expelling the waste from toxic foods we take ingest are all affected by our water intake.
Additionally, there are a number of studies and papers that demonstrate that water will successfully treat these health problems. Here is a secondary cure. If it cures our health then it could also cure our chronic lack of money. Think, if we have better health, less lost work days and have less medical bills, we will have more money.
Before the conspiracy theorists start going off on this, consider this, there is no money to be made in this. If people cannot make any money, they do not have jobs. If they do not have jobs, they cannot keep roofs over their heads. If they are pharmaceutical company executives, it could even result in them being second and third homeless (as they would eventually not be able to afford their second and third vacation homes).
So they could care less if you drink water. They are only concerned if you buy their medicine. Perhaps they don’t even care if you take it. Just buy it so they can maintain their second and third home. It is capitalism at its finest.
Now, back to the water thing.
We need at least 2 quarts a day. We pee about 1.5 quarts and lose at least 0.5 from breathing. If we are working hard and sweat, exposed to elevated temperatures or are exposed to dry conditions, then the need increases.
Next, we need to take in about half of our body weight in ounces.
So if you weigh 250 pounds, half would be 125 pounds or 125 ounces which would be about one gallon a day.
Don’t go out and start drinking this much if your not used to it. You could get sick. Too much of anything, even water, is not a good thing. If you drink to much water you could even die.
Develop this into a good habit.
But when should we drink. How does the alkalinity or acidity of the water affect our health? More to come.
A study from a year ago suggests that exercise could be a viable treatment for depression.
Although just doing it may be harder to do than popping a Zoloft, but the side effects are less worrisome.
Hey, if you lose weight you will feel better anyway.
But this is only one of the pieces of the puzzle.
We also need to stop the taking in the toxins we take into our bodies and end up in our brains. If this is not possible, we need to then take steps to eliminate the toxins by boosting our glutathione.
Good Health to you.
This article is rather interesting because of how large a group it looks at. It lacks the one thing that started me on this quest to understand the ulterior health factors.
The question: What does the cysteine do? The answer: produce the bodies master cancer
fighting warrior, Glutathione. It has natural healing properties.

The other title:Preserve That Fresh Smelling Room and Your Body Prior to Your Death at a Fraction of the Cost of Embalming with Air Fresheners
One of the most basic underlying or ulterior causes of health problems is foreign substances the human body is exposed to.
This briefly looks at fragrances in air fresheners, the health risks, the chemicals and potential chemical reactions to ambient substances. Links to the original paper and how to find what chemicals are in your fragrances or soaps.
A recent University of Washington Toxic Chemical Paper had some eye opening information. When you click on the link you can down load the paper in PDF form.
An overview…
The first landmark studies were in 1991-2.
The study analyzed 31 fragranced products like perfumes, deodorants, soaps, fabric softeners, and air fresheners found . The most common risk exposure was found in more than one-third of the products. The chemical list was quite long. It included ethanol, limonene, linalool, ?-phenethyl alcohol, ?-myrcene, benzyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde, ?-terpineol, ?-citronellol, and ?-
pinene.
That was over 20 years ago. In a 2001 study analyzed 59 consumer and occupational products. The list included soap, laundry products, dish washing detergents, and cleaners. The study looked at 19 target fragrance compounds.
Of these, the most common chemicals in more than one third of the products, were limonene, linalool, citronellol, eucalyptol, geraniol, and ?-pinene.
But wait… this is not whats interesting.
What is interesting is what the study founds happens to some of these chemicals.
The chemicals were not bad enough on their own. Some of these chemicals can react with normal every day things that may already be in the air we breathe.
When combined, a secondary pollutant can be created.
Without getting into the geekey stuff, air freshener chemicals can combine with ozone to create aldehyde, also known a formaldehyde.
They have also been associated with asthma and asthmatic exacerbations (although other studies deny this finding) and allergic contact dermatitis.
Note…My personal thoughts…Hmmm, breathing in toxic chemicals does not cause asthma problems so they must be safe for asthmatics.
It gets better…the article indicates that the US manufacturers of these products do not need to disclose all ingredients.
Note…If you would like to find out what chemicals are in your fragrances all you need is a MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) This has the product safety information sheets prepared by manufacturers and marketers of products containing toxic chemicals. You do have to join to access the information. It is free.
So, you have a choice. Go ahead and assume they are safe because the government is taking such good care of us, surely they would tell us if these were dangerous. Who knows, maybe science will find that breathing in formaldhyde will preserve you alive even though you die.
Or, become an educated consumer. Avoid the ulterior health risks.
There is one other protection we can take. Since these are everywhere, boosting our bodies detoxifying mechanism will help remove the toxins we take in. The best way to do this is to boost your glutathione.
What steps can you take now to decrease the chances of getting Parkinson’s after age 60?
The most basic step, eliminate toxins like pesticides from our diet. This means both buy organic and wash your vegetables. Of course this goes way beyond just improving memory. Even so, this will help memory too.
Impact of dietary exposure to food contaminants on the risk of Parkinson’s disease. This study may seem like it doesn’t apply to you if you don’t eat one of the main unusual foods in the diets of the study group.
However, you are missing the point.
Please note that the chemical exposure and especially the two chemicals, especially the methyl-mercury.
Question….If you ingest toxins and or heavy metals, where is your body going to store them if it does not get disposed of.
Answer….the brain.
Solution….Best to avoid the toxins.
Next best….Include in your diet the food or supplements that will help your body detoxify.
Glutathione the best way to prevent Parkinson’s Disease.
Boost Glutathione With Diet by increasing the intake of foods that have cysteine.
Reduce stress! Improve memory! Eat to Remember!
Of course we are what we eat. This is why a balanced diet is essential. A lesser known fact is that what we eat is what we think.
Let me explain.
If we eat healthy in terms of what our brain needs, we think better and manage stress better. Eat junk and our stress can make us a mess.
How it works…
The neurotransmitters inside our brains (the brain juice) are the masters of the moods.
Dopamine Does the Do Thing, it invigorates, excites and makes us feel anew.
Serotonin causes a slowin’ or calming of our emotin’.
Melatonin, asleep it will help you to get a-go-in’.
To remember endless lines of nursing school information in less time we riddled our mind with rhyme.
These are best absorbed when found in food.
Melatonin is an excellent example. If you take it in a pill to sleep, in time your body will adjust and it will not be effective. However taking it in food, such as Montmorency Cherry Concentrate does not seem to result in tolerance. At least it worked for me.
The goal is to maintain the balance of our brain juice and avoid brain drain.
This happens when we eat a complete and balanced diet and avoid toxins. Sorry Atkins lovers, the diet may help you lose weight but you my just be losing your mind too.
Bottom Line…don’t skip meals. Eat a healthy balanced diet.
The best serotonin foods: fish (rich in omega-3 fatty acids /avoid farm grown fish). Salmon is good, sardines are great as they also provide calcium.
Cruciferous vegetables, but they are best uncooked.
The goitrogens paradox. Goitrogens are the substances that suppress the thyroid gland function, interfering with iodine uptake, possibly resulting in an enlargement of the thyroid (called a goiter). This seems to only happen when overeating them. Hmmm, balanced is better!
In this case balance includes eating foods that stimulate the thyroid.
Why uncooked? Glutathione (GSH) producing cysteine is the number one anticancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, well, there are about 27 things GSH does. Cook it and you lose it because it is so fragile.
This one bears mentioning…Some studies on rats suggest that excess caffeine and a lack of iodine may promote thyroid cancers.
Cancer Sci. 94 (4): 334–7. PMID 12824900. So if you choose not to take care of your own health, please, please, do not give your lab rats excessive amounts of coffee with a high intake of goitrogens. At least feed them a balanced diet.
Both vitamin C and serotonin are essential for preventing irritability and work for stress management. Do you know which foods have both? A study reported in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition ( http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2413754 )
found that 80 types of fruits had high serotonin concentration. Some were ( highest concentration to lowest) plantain; pineapple; banana; Kiwi fruit; plums; and tomatoes.
Also only nuts in the walnut or hickory family had a high serotonin concentration. butternuts 398; black walnuts 304; English walnuts 87; shagbark hickory nuts 143; pecans 29.
Want a snack, eat a fruit. Need a boost, eat a fruit. The underlying health is in the balance of what you eat, do and think. This is only one piece of the puzzle.
Good Health to You.
