Glutathione: Glutathione is a safe antioxidant, but potential skin whitening effects could be variable. Only small pilot studies are available for this kind of use. http://tinyurl.com/k3rkav9 skin color is more important in some cultures and situations than others, so i wonder about yours? These supplements can be very expensive, and deliver little results. What does this mean for your life?
