Buyer beware.


For the past 4 years I have been in a battle with my acne. It has turned into a quest for health. I used Proactive and yeah sure it works so long as I was using it, but using it made my face dry and irritated. It hardly seemed worth it. Plus, it was obvious that it was only dealing with the symptoms not the cause.

So I stopped that and started focusing on my innards...starting with a Master Cleanse. Although I felt better my face was the same.

So I started using 4 1oz shots of NingXia Red juice a day...boy do I fell amazing, yet my face was still the same. At the same time I was also addressing my hormones, after all isn't that why teenagers have acne. Then it dawned on me....most skin problem are due to imbalance in the gut/stomach. So I decided to treat myself as though I had candida, and it is working!

It has only been a week, and already my face has cleared up dramatically! I still have a little ways to go, but I haven't had this much progress since I began my quest. All I have done is started adding 10 drops of the Melrose oil blend to my NingXia Red shots. When I ran out of Melrose, I started using Copaiba and Java Cleanse, and now I am back on Melrose.

Everyday it keeps getting better....I'm so EXCITED! After all, how can I advise people on health if I am not a walking, talking example!
