Let’s explore “IL-8”

CXCL8 is the gene for IL-8, a chemokine involved in recruiting and activating neutrophils. IL-8 is the protein nickname; CXCL8 is the gene name a DNA report may use.

Explore interleukin-8, neutrophils, CXCR1, CXCR2, and immune-cell recruitment.

Kids with cystic fibrosis often have high levels of inflammatory cytokines like IL-4, IL-5, IL-8, and IL-13, which damage the lungs. Research shows raising glutathione can lower these cytokines, yet most products don’t work. VARS Glutathion

🔥 Got high homocysteine? It’s not just about heart health—it’s about inflammation. Track your IL-8 (yes, you can test it!), and take enough glutathione to bring it down—sometimes that means 4, 6, even 8 capsules a day. When IL-8 hits zero,

Kidney failure caused by increased IL-8 and other cytokines CAN be reversed with a potent glutathione supplement. Not all can do it, but you know the best one.

🚨 High homocysteine? It’s not the number—it’s the cytokines it triggers (like IL-8) that cause strokes, kidney failure & inflammation. We found 17 gene SNPs + 12 vitamin deficiencies that drive it—and VARS Glutathione helps shut it down. 🧬
