Brief Answer:
Yes, it is

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

Reports have proved that glutathione plays an important role in the appearance of skin complexion...

Glutathione prevents melanin production leading to lighter skin and also acts as an anti oxidant which in turn compete with free radicles and prevent their harmful effects...

The daily recommended dose will be 1000-2000 mg daily in two divided doses but effect shall take from few weeks to few months to be noticed. I hope I answered your question...

Regards
