Fake Glutathione in the Philippines


News report on sub-standard and fake glutathione in the Philippine market. According to some dermatologists, instead of putting glutathione in the capsules, some repackers may be putting N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) which boosts glutathione production in the body and considered to be more effective than taking glutathione itself. But glutathione is better known as a skin whitener than NAC. However, NAC is much cheaper than glutathione, the reason why deceptive repackers “substitute” the ingredients & mislabel their NAC capsules as ‘glutathione’. Some repackers also use a cheap blend of the 3 amino acids that make up glutathione. To play it safe, it is advisable to use only unrepacked, reputable brands of glutathione from the USA and Japan.

    mga kapamilya, wag na kayo magpaputi. black is beautiful. did you know that many Westerners like to get tanned?

    right now, SkinWhite whitening soap nalang ang gamit ko. at least it comes from a trusted local company.

    NAC is a better choice than taking actual glutathione pills. Upon injestion of glutathione pills majority of the pills when become digested once they reach the stomach.. inhibiting them from ever reaching the liver. NAC is not easily digested within the digestive tract. Once absorbed it activates the production of glutathione within the liver. People are better off taking NAC since it’s a precursor to glutathione. It’s important to educate yourself.

    I’ve read studies here and their about glutathione inhibiting tyrosinase and tyrosinase produces melanin.

  16. DefeatADDnow says:

    NAC instead of glutathione. NAC is used in hospitals to increase glutathione when people have tylenol poisoning. All the natural doctors either use NAC or liposomal glutathione. It should be effective if you are deficient in it and a significant percent of the world’s population is deficient.

    why do you want to become puti when you are brown……love your color…thats the best ! ikaw puti ang anak mo nognog then what?

  18. door2kno says:

    @jeangreyfan

    Ganda ng pagka-puti ng MET kasi parang balat mayaman ang kutis mo pero in my experience, hindi nawala ng blemishes ko sa MET. Sa KB naman, hindi masyadong maganda ang texture ng pagkaputi sa skin pero kunti nalang blemishes ko.

  19. jeangreyfan says:

    Has anyone tried Met? I heard its effective.

  20. thynihillz says:

    so you mean when im takin glutathione i still need to take this NAC as well?right???its not that im questioning your knowledge about this but,how sure are you that it is effective then?

  21. DefeatADDnow says:

    Yeah it is effective. But remember you gotta get Now Foods N-Acetyl-Cysteine. It’s the precursor to glutathione. Direct glutathione does not work. It gets broken down by your digestive system.

  22. thynihillz says:

    got any idea if now food brand glutathione is effective to lightens the skin???

  23. DefeatADDnow says:

    Other glutathione pills suck and get broken down by your digestive system. I know about this stuff because I have severe health problems and the the best integrative physicians recommend these products. I have difinitley felt the effect with liposomal glutathione.

  24. DefeatADDnow says:

    Their are many other good brands as well. Another option is denatured whey protein like IMMUNOCAL. So I’d Say Liposomal glutathione is the best and N acetyl Cysteine and Immunocal are second best.

  25. DefeatADDnow says:

    It’s encapsulated in a lipsome so more than 90 percent of the glutathione is absorbed into the cell. The next best option to raise glutathione is to take N-Acetyl-Cysteine. But you gotta use a good brand like Source Naturals, Life Extension, or Now Food Brands.
