Groundbreaking, in most cases: Personal hygiene, washing your hands and gently washing your face at least 3 times per day, plus your hair at least once per week (plus any day that you built up a sweat), plus changing your pillow cover at least 2x (or more) per week, will frustrate the environment for acne.

Taking antibiotics for a long time is harmful because the intestine and bacteria convert fiber to biotin, pentathonic acid, lipoic acid, paba.

Accutane is retinoic acid. Retinoic acid reduces the parathyroid hormone. The body wants to be able to have a good level of parathyroid hormone, so it tries to reduce retinoic acid from the blood. To reduce it, it uses vitamin c, k, and pregnenolone, so one might have a low level of these.

Point of fact:

A single application of antibiotics without follow up to address the effects is significant enough to majorly impact long term health.

Doctors haven’t a clue.

Really. So if you have a massive infection you don’t think antibiotics are useful?

Got it. Clear on how you think and what you know

I was checking out FR on Rosacea and they said Selsun Blue helped, wonder if it would work on acne.

This is back in 2012 and 2013

I think those two posts are so diametrically opposed to each other that I didn’t realize they were composed by the same person

So which do you believe?

Or am I missing your overall point?
