Episode Details

Glutathione, a supplement touted by some naturopaths as a lifesaver for firefighters battling toxic smoke, is under fire after two pharmacy recalls linked to bacterial contamination and reports of fevers, chills, and headaches. While proponents claim it helps firefighters recover from chemical exposure — especially during massive wildfires like those in Spokane and LA — experts warn there’s no proven safety or effectiveness. Firefighters report mixed results, with some feeling better and others getting sicker. The IAFF urges rigorous testing before any treatment is offered, while the naturopaths behind the push say they’re open to collaboration to get proper research done.
