Get Relief from Chronic Pain and Fatigue with Glutathione Infusions
When aches and pains are your constant companions and nothing seems to work, there’s still hope. Learn how glutathione infusions can relieve chronic pain and fatigue by getting rid of oxidative stress and inflammation.

If you struggle with persistent pain and fatigue, you already know that finding the right treatment takes time, patience, and a little luck. 

Today’s your lucky day.

​​Advanced Medical Care’s board-certified specialists offer IV glutathione infusions to alleviate chronic pain and boost your energy.

Glutathione is more than just a buzzword in health circles; it’s a key player in cell repair, detoxification, and the fight against oxidative stress, all critical factors in managing pain and fatigue. Here’s how it can help you.

What is glutathione, and how does it work? 

Your liver produces your body’s natural supply of glutathione. It contains three amino acids — glutamate, cysteine, and glycine — and is central to numerous biological processes, including:

  • Neutralizing free radicals to prevent cell damage
  • Supporting your immune system by aiding your body’s ability to fight infections 
  • Detoxifying your body by removing harmful toxins and heavy metals 

Your glutathione levels diminish over time due to aging, stress, chronic illnesses, or environmental toxins. When levels dip too low, your body becomes more susceptible to inflammation and oxidative stress, which can worsen chronic pain and fatigue.

Glutathione administered through an IV delivers the antioxidant directly into your bloodstream. This ensures higher absorption rates than oral supplements, which have limited bioavailability when processed by the digestive system.

How glutathione helps with chronic pain 

Chronic pain often stems from inflammation and oxidative damage to tissues. Glutathione infusions work at the cellular level, reducing inflammation and neutralizing free radicals that exacerbate pain conditions, such as:

1. Neuropathic pain 

Nerve damage caused by chemotherapy, diabetes, or autoimmune disorders can lead to burning, shooting, or stabbing pain. Studies suggest that glutathione may relieve neuropathic symptoms by addressing the underlying oxidative stress and promoting nerve repair.

2. Fibromyalgia 

Fibromyalgia causes pain all over the body because the brain doesn’t handle pain signals properly. It’s like the pain system is out of balance. Glutathione can help by calming inflammation and improving energy production in cells, which might help reduce the discomfort that comes with fibromyalgia.

3. Osteoarthritis 

Joint pain caused by cartilage degradation can limit mobility and cause significant discomfort. Research has shown that helping the body combat oxidative stress with antioxidants like glutathione can decrease cartilage damage and inflammation, easing joint pain.

4. Headaches and migraines 

Chronic headaches and migraines often result from heightened inflammation and oxidative stress in the brain. Glutathione’s ability to cross the blood-brain barrier allows it to combat these effects directly, relieving your frequent, debilitating headaches.

Fighting fatigue with glutathione 

Persistent fatigue, especially in conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) or post-viral fatigue, can make even simple tasks seem impossible. Fatigue often stems from mitochondrial dysfunction brought on by oxidative stress. Glutathione’s role as a mitochondrial protector helps restore energy levels by improving cellular function.

Glutathione also removes toxins that contribute to fatigue and helps regulate your immune system. These effects can make a noticeable difference in your physical and mental stamina.

Most of our patients with chronic fatigue report improved focus, better sleep, and increased energy after glutathione treatment.

Benefits of glutathione infusions over other treatments 

Many pain and fatigue treatments focus solely on masking symptoms rather than addressing the root cause. Glutathione infusions, on the other hand, take a targeted approach by fighting oxidative stress and inflammation directly. We often recommend IV glutathione because it:

  • Has higher absorption rates compared to oral supplements
  • Is natural and safe — glutathione is already present in your body
  • Has minimal to no side effects for most people 
  • Complements other treatments and therapies 

One of our favorite benefits of glutathione is that it can reduce reliance on painkillers or stimulants.

Is glutathione right for you? 

You may find glutathione infusions beneficial if you have:

  • Chronic inflammation caused by arthritis or autoimmune disorders 
  • Neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s 
  • Metabolic issues like diabetes or chronic liver conditions
