Glutathione is my number one nutrient to take when it comes to my skin health. Its no secret that my favourite supplement is Rejuvenate & Firm and its no coincidence that it also contains Glutathione!
So what is Glutathione?
Glutathione is a super powerful antioxidant that has amazing benefits for your overall health and wellbeing, particularly the health of your skin. This potent antioxidant is naturally produced in the body and it can also be found in many fruits and vegetables such as spinach, avocados, apples and peaches.
Glutathione is becoming increasingly popular in the world of skincare due to its phenomenal ability to combat the signs of ageing and improve the overall appearance and health of the skin.
What can Glutathione help with?
1. Pigmentation
Glutathione is renowned for its depigmenting property. This antioxidant is widely known and used for skin lightening and increasing luminosity.Glutathione works by inhibiting the tyrosinase activity which in-turn promotes skin brightening and even tone.
2. Anti-inflammatory
Recent studies have demonstrated that glutathione can help in the treatment of eczema and psoriasis. Eczema and psoriasis are characterised by inflammation in the skin. Glutathione holds anti-inflammatory properties that helps calm inflammation in the skin.
3. Anti-oxidant
Glutathione is the OG antioxidant that gathers up free radicals in our bodies that destroy our collagen, cells, and DNA and destroys them. Free radicals come from the sun, pollution, and smoking. As we age, we produce less glutathione, so oral supplementation can help protect the skin from damage and help promote anti-ageing.
So it short, Glutathione can help slow down the ageing process, calm inflamed skin and reduce pigmentation!
My skin is in the best condition its ever been in and I put it down to taking Rejuvenate & Firm everyday, which contains my daily does of Glutathione. It is also worth noting that Glutathione works best when combined with vitamin C.
I was sure to include your daily dose of vitamin C in Rejuvenate & Firm too for this reason. Recent studies have found that glutathione levels in white blood cells and red blood cells can increase by 18% and 47%, respectively when taken with Vitamin C!

As with all supplements allow 12 weeks to see results, our cell turnover is much slower as we age meaning results take longer in those of us in our 40's plus compared to those in our 20's.
