I have horrible, scarring acne that I've been unable to control through diet or supplements; had it since I was 12 and I'm 24 now. I've been following Peat loosely for about 8 mos. now, but it hasn't helped my skin issues.
I use 10000 IU of Nutrisorb A, magnesium oil, 100mg of Niacinamide, 1000mg eggshell Calcium, 1mg Vit. K and about 2 tsps salt daily, and am on 45mg NDT prescribed by my NP (still hypo) and 25mg Progest-E days 14-28. I eat bacon, eggs, OJ, beef, gelatin, potatoes, some rice pasta with tomato sauce, occasional shrimp, dried apricots, dark chocolate, coconut oil, coconut sorbet, everything organic/additive-free. I don't do dairy because it makes the acne even worse, and I don't do coffee because it makes me feel weird even with cream/sugar. Topically I've been using copper peptides and salicylic acid for damage control, but they don't help the acne much.
Is there anything else I can try, topically or internally? This is getting old; I feel like I've tried everything and then some.
Thanks in advance for any help!
