    L-Glutathione
    There Is So Much Confusion Surrounding The Effectiveness Of L-glutathione As A Skin Lightener And So Much Conlicting Information That I Think It Is About Time That Those Who Claim To Have Had Result Provide Us All With Photographic Evidence In The Form Of Before And After Photos.

    If They Are Genuine, Then This Should Be No Problem At All. It is not fair to those who are asking questions on this site, if the claims being made are possibly those of unscrupulous vendors.

    MAY WE PLEASE SEE SOME PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE.

    I don't think so. I use Glutathione, been using it for over 6 months. Ans I have seen results, my friends, my family, everyone actually. My skin is lighter and glowing too. Some scars and chiken pox scars have lighten up. I have friends and clients who buy from me, and they have felt and seen the improvements, so have I. I don't know what brands you've used, how you used it and if you really took it the way it should be. It's a 2:1, Vitamin C, Glutathione. Whatever dosage of glutathione you take, double that for vitamin C. It's better if you take it with each meal. 2-3x a day. I have taken 3 different brands, and the best one and still on it is Active White. Dr James, is great too. But the dosage is too high for me.

    Oh by the way, I started using glutathione for other reasons. But I had other good effects from it, so it's all good

    Glutathione Facts
    After viewing postings regarding L-Glutathione, I feel compelled to impart some facts; it is really disgusting to see the confusion about the use of this product, and the mass of unscrupulous vendors trying to use this forum to push product, many of which are bogus:

    Fact #1: We have manufactured and dispensed L-Glutathione for 5 years, primarily as an effective antioxidant, immune system enhancer, and system detoxifier. The skin lightening properties are a "side effect", but defenitely are imparted. (I will not include our company name here, as this is intended as educational and not sales-oriented - anyone wishing to contact us can send a reply for contact information).

    Fact #2: You DO NOT need the addition of Vitamin C, alpha-lipoic acid, zinc, or any other ingredients for effectiveness. Some research shows slightly enhanced absorption through the gut, but for purposes of skin lightening, this is minimal and not required.

    Fact #3: ALWAYS opt for only pure 100% reduced L-Glutathione! Blends or oxidized forms will not work for any purpose, as they are biologically inactive in the body.

    Fact #4: Expect to wait an average of 60 days of regular use before judging results. L-Glutathione works by interfering with pigment producing pathways, therefore instant results are unrealistic to expect. The lighter your skin to start, generally the more pronounced results. Users have seen anywhere from 2-5 shades of lightening. Roughly 5% of users will not achieve results (in our experience). Use of a topical lightening agent along with the oral pathway will enhance results by lightening the superficial skin layers, which has a sparse blood supply and are difficult to address via an internal route. IF YOU HAVEN'T ACHIEVED SATISFACTORY RESULTS AFTER 90 DAYS, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY - YOU ARE SIMPLY ONE OF THE FEW NON-RESPONDERS.

    Fact #5: YOUR SKIN WILL SLOWLY REVERT TO YOUR NORMAL SHADE UPON DISCONTINUATION OF THIS PRODUCT. There is no known permanent skin lightener.

    Fact #6: 500mg twice per day is an adequate dosage; anyone recommending more is trying to sell you additional product. Only take more if you have a bodyweight over 175 pounds, and then one extra 500mg capsule per day is sufficient.

    Fact #7: Sounds obvious, but stay out of the sun, and wear SPF 30 or higher screen when in the sun, especially if you are using a topical agent as well.

    Fact #8: L-Glutathione is good for you. There have been virtually no reported side effects, and you receive the benefits of the antioxidant, immune system enhancement, and detoxification with use of this product. We have had one user in 5 years who claimed skin blemishes; if true, this was probably due to an allergic-type reaction.

    These seem to be the most requested facts, but please ask if you have other specific questions; we will do our best to assist you. We offer this information as physicians and pharmacists, not as sales people!

    ... and of course, we must include the disclaimer that this information is not intended to treat or cure any disease, but strictly for educational purposes. You should consult with your physician or healthcare provider prior to use of these products. Hope this helps some of you.

    Are you sure it worked for you? Or are you just saying that because YOU sell the stuff on your website? Care to explain the private message I got from you telling me to go to your site and buy L-Glut?

    Hi Prism, I contacted the person you call a doctor on your web site, he is so unprofessional, I want to check him 'cause I do not like to be lied to. If he is not a doctor why would he present him as one. He is not on the yellow pages all doctors listing in Florida (at least I could not find him) he is not there, I just wanted to talk to him and he is so defensive, why is that? People still buy stuff without doctors, so there no need to say he is a doctor if he is not, it is a lot easier for you, so is there a proof that he is a doctor, so we can talk to him professionally? And the funny thing, he said I have to ask my doctor because I just wanted to know the location of your claimed clinic and why he is not in the yellow pages, then why is he on the web site then if he is not answering the simplest questions he supposed to for being on the web site, he is there to help sales , right, that was funny. Your products are expensive , so why do you want people to pay without questions? if you want to gain money you should measure up (at least) to what you say

    I have been a glutathione user for quite some time. I have brown complexion before I took it. :rolleyes: when I learned about glutathione I took it right away until its been how many bottles I have consumed:p and you bet, everyone said I am glowing, very light skin and they really was curious why I had that big change. I kept it a secret. :D hehehe but later on when glutathione was very much advertised, I then told those curious minds about how glutathione really works. I hope I had a picture when I glowed a lot compared when I wasn't using it yet, but I don't have, sad to say that now I am out of budget for it is really expensive and I have some other priorities, my complexion turned back to the original, especially that I am too much exposed to sun of my daily routine:( :cool: :eek:

    L-Glutathione does work, it doesn't work as fast for everyone. I take 1k mg a day and that's good enough. I have hyper thyroid and it's very beneficial for me. Don't expect changes over night, if your skin is very dark, it' can take up to a year to see changes. And it's not permanent. I'm sorry, but I don't have before and after pics. TRUST ME, IT DOES WORK! If anyone wants a good website where you can get a good deal especially on sale contact me for the info. I don't work for the company that's why I'm not going to put the address here, I even have coupons good until 12/31/07. Good Luck!

    I am a user of L-glutathione for 5 months which brand name is lucida-ds.
    IT DİDN'T WORK ME.
    I disappointed about LUCida-ds because, I had heard good things and It seems reliable product.I am not sure that maybe It didn't work for me , but now I can suggest to all.
    DON'T WASTE MONEY AND TİME.
    I spent 300$ and 5 months . Everyone should research all of details about a product...
    Good luck..

    Hey patojen.
    Unfortunately the brand that you bought only had 4 or 5mg of glutathione in. I read on the internet that lucinda ds was busted for fraud and scam. I found a nother site that sells it for 7 bucks. Email me and I'll give you the info. I don't know how well it works I just found the site.
