A few months back when I complained my doctor about the excess hairfall, she prescribed me a beauty supplement worth 1000 bucks. I was a bit shocked to see a doctor giving me beauty supplements, that too when I was expecting and my hairfall is temporary, due to hormonal issues. I don’t really consider taking supplements in my everyday life, although I do believe that supplements do help. It is just the higher price point and a little health anxiety that stops me from taking the supplements.
Later when I was having a lot of weakness. Again, my doctor prescribed me with health supplements. That’s when I realized taking supplements isn’t bad but helpful as I was able to beat the weakness to a great level. Speaking of supplements, there is a lot of good talks about Glutathione pills in the market. Glutathione pills are majorly known for skin lightening and aging in the beauty industry.
I’m not really a fan of whitening or lightening products. I’m happy with my skin color and don’t want any magical whiteness on my face or body. And to be honest, I don’t believe any pill or cream can give you that. But a glowing, clean and clear skin, free from spots and dark patches and wrinkles is what everyone wants. Although brands making Glutathione supplements do claim to give lighter skin color and magical effects, the reality is that Glutathione helps in making skin healthy.
To understand how Glutathione works let’s first understand what
Glutathione is.
Glutathione is body’s own antioxidant which is critical for optimum health of every cell. It is often referred as the master antioxidant as it is essential for healthy immune function, detoxification and skin health. It is made with three amino acids i.e. cysteine, glycine and glutamic acid. Being an anti-oxidant, it protects our body from diseases and prevents toxins. It also fights free radicals that cause skin pigmentation, blemishes, and dark spots. It is also known for fighting freckles, age spots, acne and scars. It helps in cleansing our skin and removing all impurities and provides a brighter complexion.
Whilst our body do produce Glutathione, its production reduces as we age. This is when we need Glutathione supplements for healthy aging. It also helps in removing tan as it encourages production of lighter melanin pigment (pheomelanin) over its darker counterpart (eumalanin).
Glutathione is better absorbed in the body with Vitamin C hence, taking Vitamin C supplements along with Glutathione supplements is important. I have come across this Skin Whitening Combo on Click On Care containing 2 products containing vitamin c and Glutathione. Here are the details of both the product in the combo:
1. GLUTONE 1000:

2. ESCOR Z
Escor Z is enriched with Phyllanthus embelica extract, considered as a rich source of Vitamin C. It helps fight free radicals, boosts collagen and lightens the skin. Presented in effervescent format it’s the right choice of your daily health drink.
Skin is always busy fighting with the enormous quantities of free radicals produced by virtue of biological reactions and critically because of external insults such as UV radiations, pollution and chemicals. This free radical overload (FRO) interferes in the cellular metabolism as well as leads to collagen degradation and melanin over production. Balancing this FRO is important to ensure health of the skin and also to prevent the loss of collagen. Phyllanthus embelica extract in Escor-Z is considered as a rich source of vitamin C. It helps fight free radicals, boosts collagen and lightens the skin. Presented in effervescent format it’s the right choice of your daily health drink.
BENEFITS:
- Lightens skin by reducing melanin pigment
- Increases production and transfer of anti ageing protein
- Exerts photoprotective effects by neutralising free radicals
USED FOR:
- Skin lightening effect
- Photoaging
- Post procedures

- Faster action

Please note: Though Glutone 1000 has vitamin C in it as an ingredient but it is not sufficient for effective results, hence EscorZ provides that extra push for glutathione to work as it makes it easily absorbable in the body.

Here’s a little video to help you understand how this combo works:
How to use Skin Whitening Combo:
Add 1 tablet of glutone 1000 and 1 tablet of Escor Z in a glass of water and wait for 2 min for them to completely dissolve and then can be consumed like any liquid drink. It is advised to consume daily in the morning, empty stomach.
When to expect the results:
As per the brand, you may start seeing the results after 30 days of consumption. It is advisable to take the supplements for 4 months at least.
Health and beauty supplements in general are safe to use and not usually cause any side effects. But it is always better to seek professional help before starting them. Over dose might cause unwanted side effects
If you are going through skin problems like dark spots, pigmentation, dullness, aging, I would suggest you to talk to your doctor about Glutone 1000 and start it to see desired results.
Although the product Glutone 1000 is useful but I’m not happy with the way it is being advertised. Skin Whitening is not something everyone like and appreciate. But in this era where beauty is measured shade cards, brands can’t be blamed completely for advertising the same.
Aging healthily with the help of supplements isn’t bad specially when with age the essential element in our body decrease in the amount produced.
