Your Stomach Eats It for Breakfast.
Glutathione is a tripeptide — basically a tiny protein. The moment you swallow a capsule, your stomach acid and digestive enzymes do exactly what they're built to do: tear proteins apart. The pill never makes it to your skin in one piece. It arrives as rubble.
By the time those broken fragments hit your bloodstream, your body has already filed them away as "spare amino acids" — not skin-brightening cargo.
Out of 100 Pills, 99 Are Completely Wasted.
Scientists have measured it directly. Out of every dose you swallow, less than 1% of the active molecule actually makes it past your gut wall, into circulation, and onward to skin tissue.
You're not buying a "brightening supplement." You're buying a 1% supplement and a 99% receipt.
The Double Ambush: Blocked at the Door.
Even if a fragment survives the stomach, it hits the second ambush: your gut wall. Cell membranes are fat-based. Glutathione is water-based. They literally repel each other at a molecular level.
No transport. No absorption. No skin result. The molecule sits in your gut, gets filtered, and exits in the obvious way.
So What Actually Works?
Stop Fighting Your Digestive System.
Instead of forcing a doomed capsule through a hostile gut, Dr. Ingky built an internal alternative called Light Up. It targets 5 distinct causes of melasma and hyperpigmentation — not just one — using ingredients designed to actually reach the bloodstream.
Glutathione precursor your body assembles internally — no broken capsule needed.
Polypodium leucotomos · internal UV protection from oxidative damage.
Oligomeric proanthocyanidins · antioxidants that recycle vitamin C in skin.
