Lilo

Currently 100 % clear. But will have to see what happens in my luteal phase before I can comment.   On the other hand, I've always had breakouts regardless of what time of the month it is.  ...

Yes, but mainstream needs to label everything. So, if we try to avoid additives, colorants, GM foods, trans fats, etc, whereas the rest of society do not, then surely there must be something wrong wit...

I have to agree on this, I have gone through all sorts of extremes, and still won't touch a lot of foodstuffs because I believe it is unhealthy. I definitely suffer from this to some degree, but have ...

Scratch my last trial, didn't work all that well. I'm doing a B2 (400 mg/day) with other B vitamins, dry vitamin E and ALA at the moment.   Also started using Skinmedica's acne range, a bit dry...

So I had almonds again and broke out with quite a few whiteheads on my chin area, am I ever going to accept that nuts really don't sit well with me.   I have also returned to my low GI diet, i.e...

Have slacked off on my low GI diet, i.e. had refined soya bread with margarine and biscotti, the rest was fine. I need to drink more green tea, had none today.   Skin was good, three very small ...

My new supplement is green tea extract. Have been taking it for 1,5 weeks and so far so good. Have dropped the others, except for a B6 and Mg combo (mainly for pms) and taking clear skin complex by vi...

OK, so how can we improve our digestion so that the skin is not used? What is your regimen?

Avo = avocado. I believe so, exactly why Paleo did not work for me.

Hi CVD, also trying low fat whole foods, my problem is more oily skin and whiteheads, and I'm 37 years old. Paleo never worked on me.   How strict are you with fats? I saw McDougall said to refr...

I'm sitting here and enjoying a bowl of dry roasted almonds, simply addictive. Last night I had two bowls and had quite a bit of a break-out on my chin today. I just don't want to learn, however, I h...

And there was hair loss...

I'll be following your thread, for sure. Hope youre on to something. While I was paleo, I always suspected eggs and nuts to be troublesome, but could never give it up. I also had very little succes wi...

I'll try this, my skin problems are essentially the same as yours. I'm sure I have some somewhere in my cupboard.

Started on 3g niacinamide and 220 mg zinc, no other changes to my supps. My skin is not doing too bad, very small actives, gone in a day or three.   Also applying a niacinamide gel, and I think ...

I am so inconsistent with supps. Yesterday I started again on a 375 mg niacinamide and 100g zinc 4 times per day. I guess I'm concerned about the risk of liver damage from taking no flush niacin, even...

Do have a bit of a break-out at the moment, not so bad that I need to revert back to my low dose accutane. Hoping it won't get any worse. Have dropped to 2 grams niacin this past week, but have decid...

Hi, also struggling with melasma on my forehead. I'm just trying pycnogenol and loads of vitamin C. It looks lighter, but maybe to soon to tell.

Paleo did not work for me, I just couldn't do it for longer than 2 months and didn't really see any or much improvement.   So while I was searching the web I stumbled across a skin care range fo...

My face is 100 % clear again. Very strange.   I will be starting a new log, as I am no longer eating paleo.

My skin is clear at the moment, but I do have marks and my skin does look and feel a lot more oily.   Have also started to apply a niacinamide topical gel, not sure if it is the reason why I do ...

Just ignore him!

Are you taking the vitamins for your acne? and has it worked? I take niacinmide ( with Zinc and Folic Acid) and my acne is gone. I would love to know how many mgs you take of each, and how long dit...

My skin is not doing so well, I stopped accutane a month ago and thought that my nicotinamide and zinc combo was keeping me clear, not!   My new orthomolecular protocol: - 1000 mg no-flush niac...

OK, have quite a bit of a break-out on my chin, ie small whiteheads, not very happy with this latest development. Will up my dose to 4 pills starting tomorrow and we'll see how it goes. Fingers crosse...
