Glutathione: What dosage do you use? Where do you get it?

I would highly recommend it! My integrative doctor at Integrative Health Practices in Ellicott City Maryland put me on TheraNaturals L-Glutathione Plus (100 capsules $41) to nebulize. Going on 2 years still using the first bottle. When my hospital pulmonologist tried to enroll me in the clinical trial, he said I was too well to enter, lol. The advantage, I hope, of this product being produced by a pharmaceutical company is insurance coverage but if anything is added (now I simply use 1 capsule to 1/2 teaspoon of distilled water), I’ll probably stick to my current method.
In addition to the breathing benefits, nebulizing is helping to remove mold from my lungs. Participation in a clinical trial establishing the micro biome of the lung led to identifying 2 colonies of mold in my lungs.
When a traditional pulmonologist at teaching hospital in my home town first looked at my lung imaging, he differentiated between damage caused my mold and damage caused by bronchiectasis. When I asked how to remove the mold, he told me it was not possible to remove. Happily, he was incorrect.

I have a functional Dr I started seeing last year to try and get to the root cause of why I was getting pneumonia often (4 x since 2020) last August was my last. I cleaned up my gut with diet and supplements and take digestive enzymes with every meal/snack. I did a mycotoxin text and showed one major mold. I did a detox but couldn't complete it at the time. I had the house tested and treated for molds and had vents cleaned out. Added a uv lamp (no ozone) to our hvac and a 5" filter box to help keep hvac/vents free of toxins. I've nebulized glutathione a couple different times. June 30th I was diagnosed with bronchiectasis. Sputum sample hasn't come back yet for NTM's.
Here's the thing ... my specialized pulmanologist in a center for bronchiectasis and NTM's isn't familiar with glutathione and I'm sure would poo poo this. However I've read there are studies being conducted for its benefits for these damaged lungs. Another group I'm in as well and have adopted a high level sanitizing, precautions and preventions has a strict protocol and won't promote anything outside of ACT's, and all the other typical nebulizing protocols of sodium chloride and a pre bronchodilator to help open the airways first.
I shave a followup with functional Dr next week.
I've been reading studies on using NAC that now don't support using that because of cilia being inhibited.
I'm so thoroughly confused on what to believe anymore, what's safe and what's not. I'm overwhelmed in trying to make good decisions
