Chronic pain which is best described as both recurrent and long lasting can persist for weeks or months or even years. Chronic pain isn’t the the immediate pain you feel in response to an injury. . The fact is that if you severely twist an ankle when you’re out running , it’s going to hurt the next day . Pain is your body’s way of alerting you that something is actually wrong. For lots of injuries and strains , the pain you feel after is from the inflammation caused in the cells .

In that sense , the immediate pain and chronic pain share a connetcion . That connection is inflammation. Inflammation is often common chronic problem that lots of people suffer from even if we don’t know about it. But when a result of the inflammation is pain, it gets our attention .

Inflammation is often caused by the unchecked action of free radical damage inside our cells. One explanation for the unchecked damage is that there are not enough antioxidants in the body to clear out the free radicals. There are lots of reasons for free radicals and many types of antioxidants that will defend against them, but not all of them are made equal and one of the most valuable is an antioxidant called glutathione .

Glutathione is often referred to as the body’s Master Antioxidant because it’s found in every cell of the body. Because it is meant to always be at the scene of the crime , glutathione is uniquely adapted to support the removal of free radicals . Unfortunately , as we get older we produce less glutathione .

So my point is , one tactic you can do – and something that has been effective for people afflicted with chronic pain is to increase the level of antioxidants in your body to better eliminate the free radicals and treat the inflammation. Try increasing your intake of Vitamins E and C . Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables and to boost glutathione production you can take MaxGXL or MaxONE.

Take a glutathione precursor instead of other antioxidant supplements.
