My husband has an abdominal aortic aneurysm. He has refused the operation for this, since he is told that there is a 67% chance of death after the operation within one year.
Answer:
I did a search at PubMed for you about this. At www.pubmed.gov, I typed in "abdominal aortic aneurysm oxidative stress".
The reason for this is that any condition affected by oxidative stress can be improved by raising the levels of the body's master antioxidant, glutathione. This is precisely what glutathione precursor accomplishes, and why it is so beneficial for a wide variety of conditions.
This search brought up 33 results.
The first study suggests that this condition is often associated with atherosclerosis. Genetic and environmental factors may be involved as well.
If your husband would like to raise his glutathione levels with glutathione precursor, and he suffers also from arteriosclerosis, here is the study URL:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19769804
The page that addresses this issue of arteriosclerosis or hardening of the arteries may be found here.
The only way to know for sure is for him to take glutathione precursorl for a few months. The benefits are derived on a cellular level, and it is likely that he will see improvements in other areas of his health as well, since it is food for his cells, and nonspecific.
