Re: Having a severe sunburn and acne

A so called 'Heat Rash' also caught my attention. Under the tanning bed my face got unbearably hot. Like I said, as if it was going to melt off.

Re: Having a severe sunburn and acne

A quick glance would suggest you will need more fruit (and other fruit than apple) and less sugar to get more micronutrients (=vitamins minerals)? And perhaps that you don't need that much extra virgin olive oil? However, I leave that open.. I have just discovered that I am allergic to Latex (mostl...

Re: Look at what I just found!

I'd say, since she says she has issues with herself (that I can to some extent relate to) and also other people around her who seem to put her down, I'd say it might not be the diet per se, but the fact that if you take out those things from the diet t...

Having a severe sunburn and acne

Hello there. I've been doing the sample diet for the past 2 months right now (100%, cheated twice). For the first month things were looking great and I was indeed clearing up, especially my nose. BUT during this time I was still taking 10mg of Accutane every day. Then after this 1st month mark I sto...

Fishy Odor by maillard reaction product?(embarrassing bodies

Hey everyone (especially RRM), I want you all to take a look at these fragments of an episode of Embarrassing Bodies and tell me if this woman is indeed suffering from maillard-reaction proteins that can't be broken down properly.

My face literally exploded in tiny bumps. This was also true the last time I flew an airplane. Can anyone give me an exp...
