A search for a good skin bleaching cream will turn up ads for a so-called ‘magic pill’. Glutathione. Unproven claims zip around the internet. It is supposed to whiten your skin ‘from the inside’.
Glutathione is a man-made drug. It treats nerve diseases such as Parkinson’s. Many patients regain movement and the ability to speak. –Source: Medi Pharm Distributor
Still Waiting To Learn How it Whitens Skin? You’re not Alone.
On the website medhelp, a prestigious dermatologist was asked for medical evidence glutathione works as a skin whitner. He said, “I’m afraid I haven’t got any. I am not aware of the use of this product for skin whitening. In fact, I’m not aware of any internal skin whiteners. There are creams for this purpose.” –Dr. Allen Rockoff, Rockoff Dermatology Center, MA
Creams work on melanin.
Melanin– closest to the surface– gives skin color. No one can explain how attempting to impact melanin from the inside is superior, since the melanin is near the surface.
- The FDA classified glutathione as GRAS: Generally Regarded As Safe. (But not specifically for skin whitening).
- Glutathione is already in your cells. Putting more in your body gets risky. Why? Because they’ve never studied how much is safe and how much causes harm.
You could use glutathione in skin bleaching creams, if you’re willing to be a lab rat.
