Glutathione and Skin
Glutathione may be the most common medicine taken orally for skin whitening. It can also be used as skin creams externally. The depigmenting effects of glutathione are still under research but still this widely used substance globally for melanin reduction in the body. The antimelanogenic property of glutathione makes it a wonder medicine for treating hyperpigmentation. Its immense help rendered for regenerating vitamin C and vitamin E (beauty vitamin) makes it the best for skin complexion and glow.
Even these are some unopposed truths on glutathione, direct use of the medicine either orally or intravenously may also become potentially harmful to the body. Even some governments banned the intravenous use glutathione.
Here comes the role of Ayurveda science. Ayurveda offers its extended help to enhance the glutathione levels in the body through safe medications. Even without the direct extracts of glutathione, this ancient and divine science promotes the skin glow.
The decreased levels of glutathione in the body can be easily related to vata aggravation as per Ayurveda theories.
Karshya karshnya usha kaamithva kampa anaha sakrtgrhaan //
(Ashtangahridaya, Sutra Sthana, Chapter 11)
Bala varna sukha ayushman upaghataya, mano vyaharshayati //
(Caraka Samhita, Sutra Sthana, Chapter 12, Sloka 6)
Emaciation, blackish pigmentation, longing for hot, tremors, bloating and constipation are the main features of aggravated vata. An aggravated vata destroys the strength, complexion, happiness and creates stress in mind.
