databased

I currently have 4-5 small cysts on my face as well as a couple of whiteheads. Well that's a negative data point then, if you're really managing 100% compliance on the pills (e.g., 3 times a day wit...

Though trying to remain skeptical, it sure appears like boron is the final piece of the nutrient puzzle for me. Though I don't recommend it to anyone else (especially kids!), I've experimented with go...

I am slightly concerned that the SNCP contains iodine, as I have read that this can cause acne issues, but I will risk it. You can always try just getting the boron directly so you get to control e...

I purchased the Super Nutrition Calcium Blend with boron. It arrived today and I promptly took two tablets. Be careful what else you take, as there's lots of stuff in that pill. For example, you pr...

Wow -- that's going on my Christmas list for sure; thanks for the link!

The molecule itself can't be patented, as its been well known for a long time. There was one prescription formulation, both oral and topical, called Nicomide - but it never really took off. I suspect ...

can you please tell what supplements you recommend taking and how much of each every day? And how you think the doses should be adjusted due to f.ex only 2 hours bright light per day or f.ex 6 hours? ...

I have already cut dairy and sugar from my diet, and I now plan to give apples "the axe". I will be relying on blueberries, strawberries and raspberries in fresh leafy green smoothies (consisting of s...

how about full spectrum lightbulbs? I use them. They are better than nothing, but they are nothing like sunlight, IME. When marketing says they emulate sunlight, they really mean they make the colo...

That's great you found something that works for you!   Seawater certainly contains minerals, but not much of most of them except for salt, potassium, sulfur, magnesium, calcium, and bromine. Of c...

That's great you found an effective solution! I do not know how much longer to continue taking oral Niacinamide in these amounts, because I'm unsure of long terms effects of it.

Damn. So now boron is the new thing. You should maybe make a new thread called The boron regimen. I still think its quite strange this works EXTREMELY well for you, and are still very unkown for threa...

I have just started taking vit d but would like to try the vitamin pill in 3 month time.Where can you buy the pills? I usually buy from iherb.com because the price/service has overall been good to m...

I'm guessing you've run across this in your adventures, whether or not it's worth much thought. Thanks for that link, hadn't seen that. Of course, there's literally no food/supplement/cream that som...

Looking for guinea pigs that are:   a) getting regular, at least OK-quality, sleep b) have been taking Vitamin D for more than 3 months c) are adults with acne   The experiment is to try tak...

DATABASED - One quick question: How do your recommendations concerning zinc apply to teenage acne? Just say no! 😀 If you don't normalize your sleep, the zinc probably won't help anyway. Probably nob...

DATABASED - can you recommend how i can get more ZInc? what kind of pills and where i can get them? You can buy optizinc, a formulation that's been studied clinically with some success (after 8 week...

If betaine HCl helps your acne, it would be interesting to see whether substituting 1-2000mg of niacinamide per day would produce the same results. Why or how should this help? :eh: There are a ...

I've been supplementing betaine HCl (1500-2000mg, 30mins after a meal) for some weeks. My acne symptoms have also been very low during that time even though I spend very little time outside. I also ea...

I saw in another post that you said fruit could be better eaten if the glucose/fructose ratio was 1:1 or more glucose. Can you explain me more about this ? It is a somewhat weird and still-being-res...

And a question, you said it could be beneficial for acne-sufferers to take a morning coffee, shouldnt it be beneficial to take a lunch coffee as well? As long as its around 8 hours before u sleep. t...

Although, copper deficiency (according to my text) was not reversed/affected by two months of orally consuming copper, but only through IV. Which also seems odd. The common remedy for long-term zinc...

My textbook also mentions how zinc doses of 18.5mg to 300mg daily have resulted in copper deficiency, which is difficult to reverse naturally. Orally, or via IV? Oral doses much larger than 18.5mg h...

Do you have any opinion on tobacco, smoking, mariujana or nicotine, if that can have any effect on acne? Not much. Clearly, these things can affect both zinc levels and sleep, but exactly what the e...

What about the Sami people who live in northern scandinavia, for most of them the sun disappear completely in half of november, the whole december and half of january. I havent noticed when visiting t...
