Unknown: Glutathione is an anti-oxidant and immune system booster. It has mostly been studied as a treatment, when given by IV, to combat symptoms associated with chemotherapy. More recently glutathione given orally (by pill) in higher doses has been observed to whiten skin. Vitamin C is also given to theoretically keep the glutathoine in its absorbable form. This treatment is preliminary and untested.
