    I'm sorry that i may not be an expert in vitamin b but i do know that taking too much of any vitamin could cause problems for some people. For example even vitamin C

    "Although Vitamin C is generally safe, megadoses of 2000 mg or more can increase the risk of kidney stones, which can be excruciatingly painful."

    I'm not willing to deal the chance of developing much more serious problems in the future then my current problem of acne.

    Btw i do plan on taking b5 for my acne and i thank you for this thread im just saying i will not take 14grams of it a day.

    lol. Come on man! You're killing me here.

    I've taken up to 10 grams of vitamin C daily for well over a decade. You really need to stop buying into the BS about vitamins and minerals. You're only 21 years old brother, there isn't enough years in your life to have experience.

    Hey, did you hear that red meat causes heart disease because it contains L-Carnitine? Did you know that vitamin D causes erectile dysfunction? Did you know that Vitamin C causes cancer? I can literally go on for days about this. I supplement more than you or most people could possibly fathom, and have more blood panels ordered than anyone I have ever come across on earth. I've deciphered and debunked more studies than anyone I know. Trust me... I know.

    Please, if anything, keep this kind of stuff off my threads. I appreciate the enthusiasm but I do not want my threads tainted with the very nonsense that I have been fighting for years. There is nothing wrong with warning people, but start a new thread with all of your concerns, that's how you get the word out. And I assure you, you will be shocked by the knowledgeable members and their responses...

    I heard that if u take too much mh (media hype. More than one write up with no medically substantiated evidence) will make u grow a vagina. ;-)
    I take shut load vitc thru the day with zero problems. Along with load other stuff. I'd rather follow aust's studies for the simple fact he can substantiate every detail with medical studies.
    Thus saves me a shit load of time

    I did this for about 12 days, ran out of b5 for about 4 days until my powder came, and have been back on since for about 12 days, still no luck. Might this just take a little more time, or does it just not help some people? Im taking the 7g of B5 btw

    Of course it does not help everyone Otherwise we'd all be cured of every problem using the same methods

    I asked because I havent seen anyone else say that it didnt work for them. I guess I need to give it at least 2 more weeks, since its only been about 12 days since ive been doing it since I missed a few days. It seems like acne breakouts are the worst right at the end/after cycles? Ive been off for 3 weeks now, hoping this acne either lets up or this method starts working for me soon.

    Everyone is different. Even when acne shows up in different. Comparing rarely works. Only trial and error.

    Hey Aust, I've been waiting awhile to try this and finally got it all together. So far, it has made an improvement for me.

    I've tweaked very slightly the B5 amount, but all in all, happy with the results. Thanks bud, just wanted to throw my honest feedback out there.

    Zinc alone should help, but it's not a solution. Not sure what to do about oily skin really.

    Just wanted to thank you Austinite. I have had moderate face acne since I was in high school. I started your acne stack and your essential vitamins stack 2 weeks ago and have developed no new acne. My face is clearing up well. Thanks so much!

    Just a little update.
    Only 8 days later I can already tell a huge difference. My face is not getting oily, and it's just looks so much better.

    Can this protocol help with scarring from acne that occurred in previous cycles? I haven't really had acne issues this cycle or last but it was really bad on my back during my first cycle (didnt use anti-aromatase, estrogen was likely out of control).
    After PCT, they disappeared mostly but the scars are still plainly visible.
    Thanks

    No. This is for acne, not scarring.

    I tried this with a bottle of pills I bought at gnc for $14 back in the summer. It seemed to work well and I knew when winter comes my backne would flair up and sure enough it did.
    I purchased 5grams of b5 powder from eBay. It was $35 I believe. Each scoop is 4000 mg of b5. Within a 3-4 days of taking 8000 mg daily my acne was literally GONE!! My skin wasn't oily and just feels better and looks better all around.
    The cons: if u wana empty out your pipes this I suggest taking 8-10,000 grams a day. It caused major stomach cramps and i set a record of the longest, loudest, sickest morning fart you have EVER heard in your life!! After a week of shitting my guts out I dropped to 2,000 mg in the morning and at night.

    Still no signs of acne.
    this really works, just google it. There is a Tom of scientific research out there to back it up. Thanks Austin

    Ok great. Austinite, do you know of any supplements or vitamins that can help with scarring issues from old acne breakouts? You have detailed posts about everything so I figured I would ask.
    Thanks

    can this be used as a preventative measure before the acne shows up?

    Pycnogenol is all you need for preventative measure. No need for such high doses if your skin is clear.

    The zinc Picolinate (now) is 50mg caps. How does that work since I'm to take 25mg in the morning/evening? Do I just take one 50mg in the morning or what?

    Thanks austinite

    Alright thanks & also the protocol states 10g of Pantothenic acid a day. 5 morning/5 evening. Each cap is 500mg. So that's 10 caps in the morning/10 in the evening?

    Just making sure my math is right and I'm suppose to take 20 a day lol

    Thanks austinite

    I got some Thompson's B5 from the local pharmacy but it has 555mg of calcium pantothenate as apposed to the 45mg in the "NOW" brand, if my maths is correct at the 10g dose it will also give me 11g of calcium pantothenate.

    is this safe/ good or bad?

    should i just get the "NOW" brand that only has 45mg of calcium pantothenate?

    ^ Don't follow this protocol with that product. Get B5 by itself.

    Hey Austinite,
    my brother has really bad acne from previous cycles so he started this protocol about 5-6 weeks ago and it has made a tremendous difference!!! However, the past few weeks, the remaining acne that he has left hasnt really gone away so my question is related to that; should he increase the dose or just maintain it and see if it clears him out. He has followed the protocol exactly as you laid out.

    Thanks

    I would come off of the everything except for pycnogenol, for 2 weeks, and then start again.
