The link between acne & chocolates is no longer a myth

Certainly worth trying, everyone is different. Just be aware a few mg is very unlikely to be noticable at all. With B5 you need to be getting into the 500mg and multiples from there (some up to 10g).

To the earlier post for the cheap link, that deal may seem ok, but remember 100g is potentially still only 5-10 days worth (naturally varying how much you take). I used to buy it by the 1000, still ha...
