questions for Michelle

Originally posted by sheyla

It takes about 2 months to get rid of them completely, and you have to take them forever otherwise they come back? Is it safe to take them for a long period of time? and finally, what exactly do you mean they are gone completely? your skin is perfectly normal without any trace of kp (not even dots)???
please reply!!! thank you!

Vitamin A (as beta-carotene), Vitamin E (as d-alpha tocopherol), Coenzyme Q-10, Astaxanthin Complex, Lutein, Lycopene, Vitamin C (as magnesium ascorbate), Alpha Lipoic Acid, Bilberry Extract, Chlorella, Green Tea Extract, N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine,Amla Extract, Hawthorne Berry Extract, Reishi Mushroom Extract, Rhodiola Rosea Extract, Rosemary Extract, Garlic Extract, Ginkgo Biloba Extract, Grape Seed Extract, Gynostemma Extract, Ginger Extract, and Long Pepper Extract. The National Institute for Health provides research on many supplement ingreedients at this web site. <a href="http://ods.od.nih.gov/index.asp">http://ods.od.nih.gov/index.asp</a>
This is a government sponsored site so it's an unbiased source. The research is out there if you want take the time to look up these ingreedients.

Notice in the ingredients it says Cysteine? Cysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid found in the skin. I still think KP sufferers lack sulfur in their skin, and sulfur soap is making up for the loss.

I noticed that as well. I don't know why it works, because I'm not an herbalist. I just know it worked for me and my friends.
