Dr. Ben Bikman, a biomedical scientist and pathophysiology professor, in his book "Why We Get Sick" explores why insulin resistance has become such a significant problem for human health.

Insulin is an essential hormone that regulates energy storage and usage in the body and insulin resistance is a common health disorder, affecting a large portion of the global population. Adopting a low-carbohydrate, high-fat, and high-protein diet can help reverse insulin resistance which will lead to significant improvements in health within a short time frame.

Glutathione is often referred to as the "master antioxidant" as it plays a critical role in maintaining cellular health while also guarding against oxidative stress. Glutathione also boasts anti-aging properties and helps support immune system, respiratory health and cognitive function.

Unfortunately, dietary sources of glutathione are limited to only a few foods, therefore liposomal glutathione supplementation helps maintain optimal glutathione levels in the body.

This article aims to explore the various benefits of liposomal glutathione, its historical background, and how to enhance its levels using dietary means and supplements in Australia.
