A report by Korina Sanchez on TV Patrol revealed that the actual glutathione content of most of the local whitening products in the market is way less than the claimed content posted on its bottle.

The Philippine Institute of Pure and Applied Chemistry (PIPAC) tested some of the major brands of whitening products for the actual glutathione content and revealed that only two brands contained the right amount as listed on its bottle. You can watch Korina’s report on YouTube. Glutathione is an antioxidant that protects cells from toxins such as free radicals and the side effect of taking this is whitening of the skin.
