Hi,
Glutathion is widely used to improve the color of skin. Many companies are coming with this molecule in combination with minerals and vitamin C. You may take 500 mg glutathion with 1500mg vitamin C daily for few weeks to few months to have good result. I prescribe it in my patients from long time without any side effects. So you may take it for long time to have good result. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
