Abstract: The invention proposes the sure of reduced glutathione in a liposome (liposomal reduced glutathione) for the oral administration of a therapeutically effective amount to ameliorate the progression of vascular disease, including atherosclerosis, diabetes, hypertension, narrowing of arteries leading to decreased blood flow, ischemic events, and the formation of blood clots, abnormal platelet aggregation, and thrombotic events, by reducing the amount and effect of oxidized cholesterol, oxidized HDL and oxidized LDL. The invention also proposes combining liposomal encapsulated glutathione with statin drugs to improve the effect of lowering not only cholesterol but also the oxidized cholesterol as well as oxidized HDL and oxidized LDL. The invention also proposes combining liposomal encapsulated glutathione with CoQ10 as a therapy for vascular disease and management of side effects of statin therapy.

Abstract: The invention is a composition administrable orally to provide systemic glutathione (reduced) and a method for providing systemic glutathione by oral administration of glutathione (reduced) in a liposome encapsulation. The administration of a therapeutically effective amount of oral liposomal glutathione (reduced) results in improvement of symptoms in disease states related to glutathione deficiency such as Parkinson's disease and cystic fibrosis. Compounds enhancing the effect of the liposomal glutathione are contemplated such as Selenium, EDTA, carbidopa, and levodopa.

Abstract: The invention enables management of mammalian disease related to decreased energy production in the mitochondria by a combination of liposomal reduced glutathione and 1-arginine. For individuals whose inability to lose weight is related to inefficiency of the biochemical pathways facilitating mitochondrial function and energy production, the invention proposes to assist in weight loss by improving the inefficient production of energy by the respiratory transport chain of mitochondria. The invention is useful for the management of the metabolic syndrome, a group of metabolic factors associated with an increased risk of vascular disease problems. The invention is also useful for the resolution of fatigue that accompanies both weight gain and illnesses. The ability of the invention to increase the production of the biochemical agmatine in the central nervous system as well as generally in the body is part of the benefit of the combination of liposomal reduced glutathione and 1-arginine.

The combination is proposed of reduced glutathione and Highly Active Anti-Retroviral Therapy having at least one pharmaceutical composition selected from the group of Nucleoside/tide Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTIs), Protease Inhibitors (PIs), and Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NnRTIs).

Abstract: The invention enables management of mammalian disease related to decreased energy production in the mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell. The invention uses the combination of liposomal reduced glutathione and l-arginine to increase the ability weight loss in individuals with excess weight. The mechanism of weight loss appears to be related to improving the inefficient production of energy by the respiratory transport chain of mitochondria, the function of which are influenced positively by the availability of antioxidant nitric oxide in a non-oxidized environment. This invention enables weight loss in individuals who's inability to lose weight is related to inefficiency of the biochemical pathways facilitating mitochondrial function and energy production. The pathways related to inability to lose weight are also related to the phenomenon of the inability to metabolize fats, which results in insulin resistance and diabetes. The invention is useful for the management of the metabolic syndrome.
