This set of frequently asked questions covers many aspects of LifeQode EDG3 – the key to your body’s ultimate protector, glutathione. Since launching LifeQode EDG3 at V-Con in Malaysia last month, our experts have worked double-time answering queries about anything and everything to do with EDG3. Here are our expert’s answers, in easy-to-understand language, to some of the most common questions you have asked.
If you have additional questions, please ask them in the comments section below.
Q: What is glutathione?
A: Glutathione (also known as GSH) is a large protein molecule made up of three simple amino acids: cysteine, glycine and glutamine. It is produced in all cells of the human body and all living things. Glutathione is critical to cell survival, if you deplete the glutathione in a cell, it disintegrates and loses its immune activity. Glutathione has a turnover rate in the body every 36 hours; which means the body’s cellular reservoirs of glutathione need to be replenished regularly. Being in every cell gives an indication of the importance nature places on this molecule.

Q: What are the benefits of glutathione?
A: Glutathione plays a central role in the cell; protecting it from bacteria, viruses, pollutants, free radicals and even cells’ own waste. While other antioxidants work only in certain parts of our body or as a first line of defense, glutathione is needed in every cell.
Q: Why is glutathione called the master antioxidant?
A: Glutathione is known as the master antioxidant because it works at an intracellular (inside the cell) level to protect each cell from harm. It also has the unique ability of maximising the performance of all the other antioxidants we consume in our diet, including Vitamins C and E or from other supplements.
Q: Why is glutathione called the master immune booster?
A: Glutathione is critical in helping your immune system do its job of fighting infections. Cells with higher glutathione levels are healthier and able to perform more effectively to protect us from viruses and bacteria. For example, a critical part of the immune system are T cells and for T cell activation and proliferation to occur, their glutathione content must be increased to the right level.
Q: Why is glutathione called the master detoxifier?
A: Glutathione is also the most critical and integral part of your detoxification system. Foreign toxins as well as normal cell waste stick to glutathione which then carries it, via the kidneys, out of your body.
Q: Does glutathione help whiten skin?
A: Glutathione has long been used for skin whitening and to improve complexion because of its melanin-reducing effect. Many users report lighter, softer skin as one of the first effects they notice after starting to take EDG3 daily. This effect is not considered the primary benefit of glutathione in the body.
Q: Are there any medical conditions associated with glutathione deficiency?
A: Currently, there are 98 medical conditions attributed to glutathione deficiency. Some of these are arthritis, Alzheimer’s disease, cataract, chronic fatigue syndrome, frequent infections, insomnia, diabetes and cancer.
Q: What is LifeQode EDG3?
A: Glutathione and EDG3 go hand in hand – EDG3 is clinically proven to increase and maintain the amount of glutathione in your body safely and naturally. It does this using an incredible patented delivery system to ensure each cell in your body receives the three amino acids it needs to produce glutathione, something no other glutathione supplement does as effectively as EDG3!
Q: How does EDG3 differ from other glutathione products?
A: Most other glutathione products either contain glutathione itself or the amino acid cysteine. The problem with these approaches is that neither is as effective as EDG3 at increasing glutathione levels in the cells.
Q: Does EDG3 contain glutathione?
A: No, the glutathione molecule is too big to pass efficiently through the stomach wall so EDG3 employs a revolutionary method to increase glutathione production inside the cell.
Q: Can I take oral glutathione instead of EDG3?
A: Oral glutathione is not as effective as EDG3 at increasing the amount of glutathione in the body’s cells because as much as 85% of it is broken down in the stomach during digestion. Furthermore, the absorption of glutathione in the body among the elderly may be even less effective.
Q: What are the ingredients of LifeQode EDG3?
A: LifeQode EDG3 contains an exclusive US patented amino acid blend consisting of l-glutamine, l-cystine (not the same as cysteine) and glycine. Additionally, the formula includes selenium and methionine, important minerals involved in the process of producing glutathione. EDG3 also contains ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), natural mixed berry extract and a healthy natural fibre to support digestive health.
Q: What is the difference between cystine and cysteine?
A: Cysteine is the glutathione building block that each cell typically needs more of to keep producing glutathione. The problem is that cysteine is unstable and, when taken directly, is broken down in the stomach before getting inside the body’s cells where it is needed. Cystine, which is in EDG3, solves this major problem because it survives in the body all the way to the cell membrane where it enters the cell before splitting into two cysteine molecules.
Q: How long will it take before I see results from EDG3?
A: Effects take place after 4 weeks of regular use.
Q: Are there clinical studies to support the claims of EDG3?
A: There are about 120,000 studies published to support the benefits of increasing our glutathione levels. EDG3 itself employs a proven and patented method for increasing glutathione levels in the body.
Q: Is it safe for children to take EDG3?
A: Generally, yes. Children aged 6-12 may take half a sachet per day. However, for children under the age of six, we recommend consulting a doctor first.
Q: Can I take EDG3 while on prescription medication?
A: Yes, EDG3 does not interfere with any known prescription medicines.
Q: Is EDG3 a cure for any symptom or illness?
A: No, EDG3 is not intended to treat or cure any specific symptom or illness.
Q: Are there any known negative side effects from taking EDG3?
A: EDG3 is all-natural and non-toxic with no added colours, artificial flavours or preservatives. It is safe to drink even in more than the recommended dosage. A small number of people may experience what is sometimes called a ‘healing crisis’ shortly after starting to take EDG3, see below.
Q: What is a healing crisis?
A: The healing crisis, or Herxheimer effect, is a short-lived period during which a person may experience flu-like symptoms after first taking a powerful cleansing or nutritional supplement.
SEE ALSO: Can a Supplement be so Effective it Causes a ‘Healing Crisis’?
Q: Do other nutritional and/or antioxidant supplements work in synergy with EDG3?
A: The genetics of EDG3 in particular cannot be replaced. However, other antioxidants such as Vitamin C and E as found in BERRY XTREME, Olé Olive Leaf Extract and other supplements are further enhanced by EDG3. This is because glutathione plays a role in enhancing and recycling other antioxidants which you consume in your diet or in other supplements.
Q: Why doesn’t EDG3 completely dissolve in water?
A: EDG3 is not 100% water soluble owing to its patented delivery system. If there remains residue in the glass after taking EDG3, add additional water, swirl and drink to ensure no EDG3 is left behind.
Q: Can I take EDG3 with milk instead of water?
A: EDG3 has no aftertaste and can be sprinkled on foods or added to any beverage. EDG3 is also conveniently carried in colloidal liquids such as milk. So, add EDG3 to any milky drink to avoid any granular texture some people notice when taking EDG3 with water.
Q: How should I store EDG3?
A: We recommend storing EDG3 in a cool dry place. However, the building blocks in EDG3 are very stable and can withstand extreme temperature and pH variations.

Hi, is edg3 safe to be consumed during pregnancy ?
Hi Aditya, yes, EDG3 is safe for pregnant mums, as it helps to remove toxins from the body. The toxins found in the environment do not affect the mum so much, but it does harm the unborn baby. Therefore, EDG3 does a perfect job in protecting the baby from harmful toxins. In addition, mums who are expecting require large amounts of amino acids which is a form of protein, which EDG3 helps to provide. However, we recommend that you consult your doctor for a second opinion as well.

Hi Sagar, EDG3 has a shelf life of 2 years. So please use before then. Refer to the packaging to know the date of manufacturing.
How will the Edg3 help the patient undergoing Chemotherapy in cancer ?
How can one feel the difference with the one not taking EDG3 ! Is it gluten free product?
Hi Varun, thank you for your questions. EDG3 can help patients undergoing cancer treatment because of two reasons.
1. People suffering from cancer also suffer from weak immune systems. Glutathione helps boost their immune system which in turn will help fight illnesses better. It also helps the person regain their strength because of this.
2. EDG3 can help reduce the side effects of chemotherapy. One of the side effects is inflammation, and there’s no better solution to that than Glutathione. It also helps detox the body, and remove the chemicals from inside the body.
Remember to consume EDG3 AFTER you finish chemo, and not during the treatment.
Edge3. Has helped me a lot. I consume 3 sachets dailly specially which feeling sick. Is this ok. Is there any negative effect of high dosage..
Hi Jagdish, there are no negative effects when it comes to taking 3 sachets a day. When your immunity levels are low, its because your body is under stress. That’s where EDG3 can help you, by prepping your body to produce Glutathione naturally.

Hi Edge team, I have been consuming Edge for the past one year. Certainly I have seen the benefits – one of the most significant one is improvement in my general health. I would like to know if Edge is best consumed in an empty stomach or paired with a hot beverage (milk, cocoa, tea or coffee) ? When is the best time to consume – in the morning or before going to bed ? Does the protein work efficiently when the body is at rest or when the body’s metabolism rate is higher?
Hi Shanthi, thank you so much for your question. We’re happy to hear that EDG3 is working for you. EDG3 is best consumed first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach, before you have your morning coffee and breakfast. It works best in the morning as the greatest absorption into your cells happen at that time of day. Hope this answers your questions 🙂

Thanks for your question, Haji. EDG3 is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Glutathione protects your cells and helps them repair themselves. (you can read more about glutathione here – http://www.qbuzz.qnet.net/blog/2015/12/17/incredible-health-benefits-glutathione/). EDG3’s role is to prepare your body to produce glutathione naturally.
Is edg3 taken with hot water or cold water.
Hi Celestine. You can use both hot and cold water without affecting its efficacy. However, some people prefer the taste of EGD3 with room temperature water or cold water 🙂

Is Edg3 suitable for kidney transplant patient who had cancer? Please answer me.
Hi Nway, we asked your question to Dr. Selvam from our Scientific Advisory Board. He said “Glutathione production is concentrated in the most active organs like the Liver, Brain . Heart , Intestines , Kidneys and the Lungs . It is also noteworthy that most of the dysfunction/ diseases in these organs are associated with low Glutathione levels . Hence it will be beneficial for this patient to take EDG3 . However , it is generally advised that the patient stops the EDG3 during chemotherapy and continue after the treatment which will help to boost the Immune System . EDG3 will also help in the detoxification and elimination of the drugs used as well other toxins in the body.” Hope this helps!
Nice information and I would like to try the products. But I have 3 questions here! Hope you and your team would be happy to provide me the answers.
1) Could you please compare the injectible Methylcobalamine or Methyl B-12 (M-B12) and EDG3? Comparision in terms of ingredients and benefits, or you could just compare these two products by your own way. As both the products are meant for increasing glutathione levels.
2) Can you prove that how the EDG3 is stronger than any other products as you mentioned?
If you would like to know more about the Methylcobalamin
3) There are 98 medical conditions attributed to glutathione deficiency as you mention in the Q&A. Can you list down all 98?
I would be grateful if you provide the details
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Im using Edg3 for about a month now and me and my husband is trying to have a baby. I normally had my period every month but during taking Edg3 for the 1st time i experienced 11 days delayed on my period and got negative on HPT and on my 12th day i had my period and experience dsymenorhea.
Please explain why it happens? Is this a negative effect of Edg3?
Hi Jasmine. No, we have not previously had any reports of this nature. We recommend you discuss this with your doctor as they will be able to help you identify the cause. Take care and please keep us updated.

Thanking you for your previous reply.
Will consuming Edg3, help in fighting cancer or cancer treatment by helping healthy cell growth in a body? If yes, then how much time will the edg3 effect take place? Please email me the reply also.
Hi Rohan! Please note that EDG3 is not intended to treat or cure any specific symptom or illness.
can edg3 be taken by a breastfeeding mother?
While there are no known side effects, because EDG3 is not formulated specifically for pregnant or lactating woman, we recommend consulting a physician before consuming EDG3.
bonjour est ce que je peux avoir explication de EDG3 en français , merci

Can edge3 be given to children? What age group can be given and what is the dosage?
Generally, yes. Children aged 6-12 may take half a sachet per day. However, for children under the age of six, we recommend consulting a doctor first.
Can EDG3 sachet be provided to dogs /pets. If yes, then what is the quantity?
Can EDG3 be consumed by pregnant ladies ?
Can EDG3 be mixed in food?
Dr Selvam has provided me with the following responses:
1. The benefits of EDG3 will be enjoyed by dogs and pets because, like us, their cells also use glutathione for protection. However, EDG3 is formulated for human consumption so we recommend consulting a veterinarian before giving EDG3 to an animal or pet.
2. A pregnant woman’s demand for glutathione in the body is greater than the average person, therefore a woman is likely to benefit from producing more glutathione thanks to EDG3. However, because EDG3 is not formulated specifically for pregnant women, we recommend consulting a physician before consuming EDG3.
3. You can mix EDG3 into food to consume, this is OK. However, we advise you to drink sufficient water while taking EDG3, so having it with a water or beverage is suggested.
It is quiet evident from the above shared information that EDG 3 shows it’s result after 4 weeks but would like to know the duration post 4 weeks,how long one should consume it.
Hi Schweta
The cells in your body always need glutathione and the amount of glutathione produced in your body begins to decline after the age of about 20. You will notice benefits including looking and feeling healthier after 1-2 months. However, long-term benefits from reduced inflammation, reduced damage from free radicals and less oxidative stress in the body, will only come from consuming EDG3 over a period of many more months.
Thanks
Nathan
QNET
As Edge is combination of important proteins (amino acids), does that mean:
1. one needs strong kidneys to support absorption of these proteins in the body?
2. would it be advisable for people who are clinically required to have light protein diet?
Hi Usha
Dr Selvam has given me the following responses to your questions:
1. EDG3 does not add stress to the kidney and in fact contributes to normal kidney function through it’s effect of reducing inflammation, free radical damage and oxidative stress.
2. Consuming EDG3 will not significantly increase the volume of protein consumed overall. This is because the amount of protein in EDG3 is very small relative to other sources.
