Could somebody who reads these things more than me (and therefore, would understand it so much better than I) and tell me if this is saying that olive oil can up GSH levels with any significance?

I had a discussion with my GI dr. that I have had a craving for green olives since I had my liver infection, and I previously hated green olives (but liked the occasional black olive), and that if I eat green olives during the day, I don't get the crampy/odd twinges in my bile duct/liver area??? He said to try an avacado and see if I get the same results. I have one sitting in my 'fridge right now, but then I saw that avacados are good for GSH, so I looked up green olives, and got a couple of studies about olive oil...

Perhaps I will just call my GI dr and ask him if I can try the GSH now...

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give!

<i>Extra virgin olive oil biophenols inhibited the redox imbalance by scavenging released radicals, thus preserving the intracellular GSH content;

Another possible key mechanism in the protective effect exerted by extra virgin olive oil biophenols could involve the sparing of GSH, i.e., the strengthening of intracellular antioxidant defenses
</i>

<i>The data we report here suggest that one of the mechanisms by which extra virgin olive oil biophenols inhibited cell-mediated oxidation of LDL was by preventing ROS accumulation through the improvement of the entire GSH redox cycle, as demonstrated for other antioxidative compounds....</i>


<b>I didn't read this super carefully, bu inthe discussion section they kept emphasizing that olive oil most likely was a free radical scavenger (among other things) and was sparing gsh in the cells....so not increasing it, but protecting it, rather.

This study is SO IMPORTANT because it proves that things we ingest inhance our immune system. Our bodies need healthy diet to maintain critical defense system.

Thank you! I kept trying to read, but I knew I was missing something! Every little bit helps, I suppose <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> .
