Glutathione has improved my skin tone

When it comes to beauty products I use with caution. I've tried most of the leading beauty products in the local market from papaya soaps, hydroquinone, pearl paste, whitening lotion to bleaching powder. After regular use of these products I find no improvement so I just stop using them.

Then six months ago I used a papaya soap (too local) that left my face red and stinging. Since then I have not applied any product on my skin. Yes, despite my skin developing unsightly fine lines and my eyes developing dark circles due to stress and lack of sleep, I have never used any product since then. But these past ten days I've tried to catch up in caring for my health... I went on a detox diet, started taking anti-oxidant multivitamin (HavitAll) and learning to handle stress. Within those ten days a friend offered me a Glutathione-based soap from UNO

I was glad to get hold of this well-known product, but I hoped this wasn't one of those labeled "fake" in the news. Skeptical, I said I'll just try it for 2 days and if it won't work or if it will harm my skin - I'll just stop. Eight days later, to my amazement, my skin's texture improved, the fine lines diminished and even my freckles are fading! And it did not sting at all.

Now I'm using it, not really to whiten my skin but to detoxify it. My 30-something niece kidded me once, "Sa lagay na yan, may lakas ng loob ka pang gumamit ng glutathione?" She meant I'm already fair-skinned and yet I still see the need to use the soap. Well, I said, yes I see my need for it - health-wise =)

So here's what I found about Glutathione...

GLUTATHIONE- small protein composed of 3 amino acids called cysteine, glutamic acid and glycine, produced normally by the body in response to today’s environment such as pollution in the air we breath, water we drink, chemicals & pesticides in the food we eat that cause damages in our cells & system.

Glutathione is often referred to as Master Anti-oxidant in the body.“small molecule made up of linked amino acids and anti-oxidant naturally produced in the body. It has been widely heralded for its importance for good health and long life.

Glutathione in increased dose posts a remarkable good 'side effect' such as SKIN WHITENING".“the greater the exposure to toxins, the faster the body uses up its supply glutathione. Without the protection of Glutathione, cells die at a faster rate, making people age quicker & putting them at risk for toxin induced diseases including cancer.”

GLUTATHIONE (GSH) (Anti-oxidant, Anti-aging and for Fairer Skin)
CLINICAL NAME: Glutathione
SYNONYM: Reduced L- glutathione
CHEMICAL NAME: Gamma-L-glutamyl – L – cysteninylglycine or L-7-glutanyl – cysteinylglycine

FOUND WHERE?- present in virtually in all mammalian tissue- mostly in liver where it detoxifies many harmful compounds to be excreted through the bile- red and white blood cells- lungs- intestinal tract

PRIMARY BIOLOGICAL FUNCTIONS:
- to act as a non-enzymatic reducing agent to help keep cysteine thiol side chains in a reduce state onthe surface of proteins
- involved in the synthesis & repair of DNA
- helps to recycle Vit. C and Vit. E
- blocks free radical damage
- enhances the anti-oxidant activity of Vit. C
- facilitates the transport of amino acids
- plays a critical role in the detoxification of harmful compounds
- is the base material for several other key antioxidant enzyme systems such as, glutathione-peroxidase, glutathione-reductase and glutathione-transferase
- Body (AID) A - ntioxidant I - mmune booster D - etoxifier

THEREFORE, declines in glutathione concentrations in intracellular fluids correlate directly withindicators of aging.
