Lately I've been doing some research on the product and for general health it sounds amazing! The one thing that jumped in my mind is if acne is caused by high insulin levels then this supplement could possibly help with it. This is just a guess, but I'm going to try it as soon as I go to the Vitamin Shoppe.

If you notice, that website is actually selling the product so they will write anything to make you buy it and exaggerate its benefits. There are many other vitamins/supplements that help with insulin resistance. There's a whole list of them here: http://examine.com/topics/Insulin+Sensitivity/

 

I've tried most of them and none of them have helped me. I don't think there is a magic supplement that cures acne.

No faith. Have you tried Benfotiamine? I posted that article because I was short on time. I wouldn't knock something till you've tried it. I don't believe I said anything was going to "cure" anything. I said it it could "possibly help". I never made some extraordinary claim.

 

Why do you come on my thread and try to shoot it down? I don't like forums because of this. Respectfully site your opinion or experience.

It could help with the inflammation but I don't think it would do much for acne formation. It's basically a b vitamin analog iirc so it will help with sugar metabolism which will reduce the inflammatory potential of lesions, but the root of acne is immunological.
