Cons:
none!
I have tried everything from accutane to birth control to antibiotics to every single topical treatment, and nothing has worked better than flaxseed oil and probiotics taken together. I take two tablespoons of flaxseed oil a day (you can take up to a tablespoon for every 50 pounds of body weight, according to Udo Erasmus). The probiotics help to balance the good and bad bacteria in your body. I take capsules because I can't stand the taste or texture. I haven't head a whitehead in months now. It's also important to keep saturated fats low in your diet. These will clog your pores! And eat lots of vegetables and fruits for antioxidants!

Pros:
Skin becomes brighter and smooth
Cons:
Tastes not so good. It has 14gms of Fat per srving.
I have been mixing 1 1/2 tbls of Flax Seed Oil with about the same amount of cottage cheese each morning. The estatician said to eat it on and empty stomach. While I am not willing to say that it is clearing my blemishes or preventing new ones, I can say that the overall health of my skin is improving. The skin that isn't blemished has definetly improved. Blemishes seem to be fading sooner, but I think its because of the creme the estatician gave me that she has made in Europe.

Pros:
Gets rid of whiteheads and good for health. Has Omega 3,6 and 9.
Cons:
It doesn't taste like chocolate.
Both the capsules and the milled seeds work. You just have to find out how much to eat for it to improve your skin. Milled seeds are more potent than the oil/capsules. I've suffered chronic whiteheads on my cheeks and forehead for years, rarely they would turn into pimples. Over the years I've changed my diet and eat salad everyday, exercise everyday, take a multi-vitamin and drink plenty of water. I've tried benzoyl peroxide, salicyclic acid, hydrogen peroxide, scrubs, peels and nothing helped the whiteheads. So I did some research and found out about essential fatty acids, oleic and linoleic acids and how they affect whiteheads. I went with flaxseed because it has a high concentration of Omega 3, 6, 9. After 3 days of taking 2 flaxseed oil capsules a day to my diet, I noticed that no new whiteheads formed. I upped the dosage to 2 capsules and a tablespoon of the milled seed per day and now the older bumps are going away faster. Try it, you've everything to

Pros:
Helps with acne on my face, and chronic eczema on my legs. Also helps a little with dry eyes.
Cons:
Can't handle the oil, but the capsule work just fine.
It seems to help with all my skin problems, and improves overall skin appearance. I would recommend this to everyone. I have many friends who have tried it and all have seen positive results, no complaints.

Pros:
Clears up.
Cons:
My bumps were gone! But my skin turned red and looked like a rash. I assumed that it was a allergic reaction from the capsules. I stopped taking them and in a week or so the redness stopped and I continued to break out again. Oh well.
It was a allergic reaction for me. It works well but it isn't for everyone.

January 12, 2008
Pros:
My acne slowly went down
Cons:
Redness occured.
I take a tablet from Nature's Cure so I don't have the weird taste. I don't have anymore big bumps but my face tends to turn alot redders almost like I have a rash. You just need a really good diet when taking it. Also read the back. Instructions do help!

Pros:
Gives my skin vigour, and faster healing abilities. My face now produces enough oil, and does so more evenly. Acne seems to subside before it begins (no broken-skinned flare-ups).
Cons:
You have to be creative to include it in your diet; it tastes strangely with sweet foods, and must not be heated.
I'm a dry-skinned vegetarian, so this just plain makes sense. If your acne seems to spring from dis-balanced skin and slowness to heal, try it. I'm glad I'm not allergic! I won't eat non-vegetarian capsules, but really, having something that goes best on salads just makes me eat more healthily. As for non-vegetarians, the price is kind of high, so eating fish with other healthy oils might be more reasonable... but I recommend it to anyone who can afford it!

Pros:
Many! I have many skin issues, and all my scars and bruises healed up fairly quickly after I started taking flax oil.
Cons:
The taste is bad, but I've learned to slide the oil off the spoon into the back of my mouth so that I don't have to taste much of it.
Taking flax oil alone isn't enough. I take raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar (Bragg's) with it. This combo has worked wonders! My skin clears up so much quicker and I hardly break out much anymore! I also have more energy.
I made sure to use organic flax oil in the brown bottles.
Pros:
Incredible skin
