Wai,

I have recently found your information on the net. Doing a google search of course. I have been reading all day long. I just located your online book today. I am so pleased I did. I can't wait to get started. Can you tell me how much this is going to cost me?

I am wondering however, if this is going to cure my cystic acne. I have been on everything, my last resort was to take Accutane, but I chickened out and flushed them down the toilet. The side effects were extreme even suicidal in some cases.

I am just so disgusted with my face. I get 3-10 new breakouts daily. Some are minor, but most are cystic and hurt when I wash them or even when I sleep on my pillow. They itch as well.

I wash my face with Aveeno Face Cleanser that contains 5% salicylic acid, I tone with an astringent cleanser that contains 10% salicylic acid and then a Benzoyl Peroxide lotion. My skin is scaly and doesn't look any better. To top it off my skin is a completely different color from the rest of my body. Seems that the pigment on my face has changed somewhat. I hate it!

I have tried everything and these cysts just won't go away. I did take Birth Control Pills for about six months, they really helped. My skin suffered no breakouts, only one or two during that time I took the placebo pills with the expectation of the onset of my menstrual cycle.

I stopped taking the pill because I was depressed and picked up weight.

Can you tell me if this is going to help me. How long before I will see results.

cant tell you how much, but you will spend a lot on fruits... (and raw fish if you prefer that over fresh raw egg yolks)

your chances are good; about 90%
but no guarantees

that is individually very different; in many the results can be seen within a week, but in some it can take 5 weeks...
check out the very different testimonies
