Starting Magnesium and L-Glutamine supplementation tonight. While reading about symptoms of magnesium deficiency, I stumbled upon a claim that the production of hyaluronic acid, a polysaccharide important in healing new wounds, is dependent on Magnesium levels. Also, Vitamin C, which I've been taking for months with little result on older scars, apparently degrades hyaluronic acid. Could my poor digestion be leading to a magnesium...

Wow, one day with the cream and those cystic pimples are like 80% died down. That is amazing. I do always use BP, but one of the bad things I don't like about it is that it creates inflammation on the pimple and makes it angry. I had like 3 more pimples crop up all in the same area (but gone now phew). They are that section near the bottom of my mouth on the side of my chin. I always break out there and that's a hormonal spot.

Also, I found a lot of helpful info on Brenton B.'s thread...search his name in the nutrition forum. Yeah, I've read that site. In combination...

I have been washing my face with distilled water only the past few days, it seems to like being hydrated and I'm not getting massive breakouts thus far, so I'm going to continue doing it. I still have little flakes of dead skin, so I don't think the water is washing the dead skin mask away completely. Hopefully it can run it's course while I pour distilled water and then let it air dry once a day, albeit it will probably...

so day 12? I just washed my face for the first time and it felt soooooo good. I first rubbed off the dead skin with my finger that was oily and it just slid right off. Then i steamed my face preparing for a shave. THen I shaved (where ever I shave is always so clear) then i took a bath and washed with olive oil all over, including my face.. and I feel so good now. My skin on the other had is worse than it was 12 days ago, but feels great

day 13: my skin took quite the beating from that exfoliation mishap from day 7. i'm not noticing much of a difference in my acne yet, it was looking better until i exfoliated so i think i'm backtracking a bit. the dead skin (most noticeable between my eyebrows and on my forehead) is rather unattractive when i put on makeup (which is rare these days). all in all, things are not too bad, could be better, could be worse. might try cold...

re: capsule size, the Supplement Facts panel says Colostrum Plus and under Amount Per Serving: 960mg

I added myself to the group as I started taking colostrum. @Jay, I think it is better if we wait longer to check for results. In a couple of months it will be pretty clear who this worked for. @Brissy, don't worry, just send it over when you get some time and I will add you to the list.

lol cursed huh...well that confirms what I suspected witch. Hope your acne journey is positive.

great post. will be watching like a hawk, LIKE A HAWK!
