What the point to have serious research, we already know what the drug do, we don't care of a research at all. When we understand physiology, we know that only the body can repair itself, we just need to assist him to do so. By first stopping poisonning him with bad alimentation and other habits (smoke, drink, drug etc.), next giving him what he truely need (biodisponible nutrient specially minerals in raw fruits & vegs) and then helping him cleaning itself with plants or kidney&liver flush.
No drug ever will be effective to do anything good (say that cause i think you still wait for the magic pill), how do you want that something (any drug existing) detected by the immune system as a toxic foreigner which he try to destroy and eliminate asap will help the body, it's really dumb, the body as no use for those toxic crap, he can't grow new cells from it or absorb nutrient in it, and even less do long term positive change, bypassing the body natural function to induce an artificial change won't bring anything good. Anyway drugs only treat symptoms temporarly, this simple fact is enough to understand why they are useless. The body doesnt need toxic chemicals to heal itself, he doesnt require the dumbness of humans who believe he's malfunctionning by itself, the body function really well when we respect him, we are just too dumb to realize that we are poisoning it everyday, plus not giving him what he truely need.

An intro to the endocannabinoid system. Worth a read.
Don't know if you are talking to me but, isotherapy was very effective yes. I don't think it is an absolute necessity but it's useful to force the body to react and do the process he need to heal itself and expell a specific drug, otherwise the body will do his natural job and do what he can from what is the current priority, as accutane created indirect problems, damage and global toxicity and acidity he won't act mainly against accutane (theory). When we start eating a physiological diet and stimulating the body detox system naturally the body start to detoxify itself layer by layer and its common to see the release of drug took 10 or even 20 years ago.
But don't do the isotherapy if your body is too toxic and congestioned, it will do more arm than good.
Hey guys,
I am trying to get your opinions on anti-oxidants. I am looking into taking reservatol-derived from red grapes. I have read many conflicting articles about this anti-oxidant. Some articles claim that it blocks the positive affects of exercise and many others provide proof of the positives. I know this is not a new supplement, and I have done a fair amount of research on it's affects and potential upsides. I do however have a link to a website showing studies that pill based forms might be bad because it does not force the body to up-regulate it's own enzyme to fight oxidative stress. What do you guys think? Waste of money and possibly bad for health, or something worth supplementing? I know natural foods are the best way to get anti-oxidants, but at this time, my diet is not where I would like it, and I don't see it being that way for a little while. I would drink red wine, but I don't alcohol and I don't know how I would fair being that I took tane.(not saying I haven't drank, just not in a long time. http://gettingstronger.org/2011/03/the-case-against-antioxidants/. Sorry for not hyperlinking-couldn't figure it out. I'm looking for peoples' interpretations of this article. Thanks guys! Hope all is well.
Alcohol and Tan don't mix well I wouldn't recommend it , a lot of people report they are hung over for three days after drinking myself included , ironic because it has been shown that moderate alcohol consumption is beneficial to the body example would be a glass of wine per day like the Mediterranean diet . It just shows you how toxic this stuff is and what gene expression alterations can do to the body.
Not true alcohol in moderation is beneficial under normal circumstances . Red wine is turning out to be a super food , although many health conscious people have opted to get isolated grape compounds in capsule form . Recent research however is showing that the best way is to drink red wine.That's because red wine contains the entire grape polyphenol group of of nutrients a group that has been shown to work much better
synergistically .
In fact newly releases research has shown that breast tumor growth and metastasis to bone and liver are inhibited by the complete
grape polyphenol complex.
I recommend reading some articles at Natural News. com and type red wine in the search bar.
Many studies have shown that moderate alcohol consumption improves HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol), improves insulin sensitivity etc. Other studies have shown that moderate and even heavy consumers of alcohol live longer than those who abstain. However, I'm not going to run out and buy several bottles of vodka under that pretence just yet.
Not true moderate again key word moderate alcohol consumption IS beneficial , binge drinking on the other had is not , and yes cholesterol is a scam
in fact having higher cholersterol is actually beneficial , cholesterol isn't the problem it's inflammation . Most of my relatives and ancestors drank not hard
liquor but beer which is very low in alcohol typically 5% and has vitamins , antioxidants and hops and they all lived to an old age that being said alcohol and isotretinoin don't mix too well but that is only because the drug does strange things to the body as I and all of you have found out , isotretionin in reality is a controlled poisoning , FACT.
Honest derms will actually tell you that and some derms even refuse to prescribe it what does that say about this drug.... Wine would be the same thing in moderation it is healthy just ask people who live in the Italy , Greece , Portugal etc.. most drink wine moderately and heart disease is very low in that part of the world.
None of the remedies in this thread will work. Diet will ASSIST some of the damage. It depends on what was damaged. Accutane has clearly damaged something, likely in those who are already genetically vulnerable. You all keep saying it yourselves: Accutane is a cancer drug. There are MANY organs it can affect. But one thing it usually seems to affect is calcium levels in the body in cancer patients. Which means it can damage your parathyroid glands first and foremost. But no one ever bothers getting this tested. Test it if you haven't.
It could have enlarged them ( which causes brain fog, difficulty concentrating) and all kinds of the crap that everyone keeps complaining about with the drug, from headaches to horrendous joint aches because once you get parathyroid disease, it starts stealing calcium from your bones. Hyperactive parathyroid glands will raise the calcium in your blood, which means it's being leeched from your bones. You will feel like shyt. Parathyroid hormone is one of the most powerful hormones in the body. It is used to control calcium levels, after all. Get your parathyroid hormone level assays checked ALONGSIDE your calcium levels. It's not related to your thyroid whatsoever.
Interesting blog: http://accutanecountdown.tripod.com/ <--she talks about her calcium levels being HIGH and the doctor ignoring them, which is a common problem. Parathyroid disease kills slowwwwly over time. It is caused by either a tumor on the parathyroid gland or enlargement--meaning they will still have to be removed or the overactive glands will keep doing what they should not.
http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/434461_3 <---here you go thank me later
tl;dr test your parathyroid/calcium levels first. If they're slightly elevated even, then they have been affected ( because calcium should never even be mildly elevated, do the research I've done and you'll see).
I took the time out of my day to write this for a reason. Now get to testing.
Love,
Person
Again accutane as nothing to do with genetic (or epigenetic), this is scam & bs. But people with a body in an already bad state (before accutane), toxic & demineralized, yes, 100%
It's true about thyroid, accutane affect all glands, directly and indirectly.
Diet doesnt assist, diet = do no more arm & give your body what he's made to eat and what he need specially when sick, fruits & vegetables, this is the base of physiology. If you give your body food he's not physiologicaly supposed to eat, don't be surprise to not be in good health.
The body need to be re-mineralized (raw/juiced fruits vegs), accutane cause big mineral loss (directly and by inducing acidity/toxicity). Also he need to be assisted to eliminate all of his toxins/acids & natural waste (acne is an elimination) with flushs or herbs, accutane damage the emunctories (skin is the third kidney), and specially the intestine & liver (liver isn't a "true" emunctory).
You can tell your friend to stop dairy + acidic foods & drink (meat, soda, etc.) to fix a big part of the calcium problem. Anything that contain soy too, the worst thyroid poison.
"normal" isn't normal but yes the symptoms come back (differently) and far less powerful than when it was my main diet. i can only say that about grains (specially wheat), i never eated back meat & dairy since a long time ago and i did the mistake of taking back wheat only 2-3 times past 8 month.
Ok so if I understad correctly
Lets say wheat was the cause of the acne.
Accutane changed what wheat does to us.
Instead of wheat causing acne, it now causes dry skin etc
So when someone is cured, wheat should cause Acne again.
That is the goal right ? Get acne again
So anonyy I understand you are sympton free, but it is sympton curing, because when you fall back into bad habits it comes back.
What are our thoughts about this?
It's not only wheat, it's dairy, meat, every grains, etc.. anything that's acidifying, contain toxins and cause mineral depletion & congestion.
Accutane destroy the intestine as hard as the skin, that's why a physiological diet is an absolute necessity to get health back, in normal circonstance the body can "handle" those toxic food but after accutane, it's impossible. And even physiological food is a problem after accutane, fibers in raw vegetables are too irritating for us, we need to juice them (bonus chlorophyll in green leafy vegs heal the intestine).
About acne it can came back but not as much as before accutane, to repair the skin it takes time and it require the same thing as to heal the whole body, whole diet change, great elimination of toxins&acids and a good re-alkalinization to permit the body to do his job, so after that there is no reason to have acne. My acne came back but like 3-4 pimple some times, not something really disturbing.
