Essentially, it is a cleanser with microderm abrasion, a toner, and a fortified acne cream.
You are supposed to use them every night.
I used them Friday, then again on Saturday.
Saturday night, my face was burning and itching, and it appeared slightly swollen on one side. Since they are a benzoyl peroxide product, this was not exceptionally alarming, and I have had the occasional reaction to it before.
And it was mentioned in the instructions that if sensitivity occurred that you should cut back the frequency of usage until tolerance was achieved. So, I skipped Sunday, and used it today. I plan to skip tomorrow, and so on. Next week, I will use the cleanser, and the toner DAILY, and skip the "repairing cream" every other day, then work that up as well. But although I don't see a MARKED difference in my minor acne at the moment, I DO see a difference in my skin. It seems fresher, and glowing.
On another front, I am continuing to take my Flintstones.....lol....as I like the condition my nails and hair is in. I know that it will deteriorate as my hormones go down, but perhaps if I can get into a routine.... (which if I get to using the proactiv daily, will help me to establish one, and thus, taking the vitamins at the same time will keep me on them also),.....then I will be able to keep my nails looking nice. It is not that they are any exceptional length or anything. Just slightly longer than short. But they are in good condition, strong feeling and not peeling, as they are normally prone to do.
I also really need to begin my plan for yoga. I am trying to get into a PATTERN of healthy habits BEFORE I have to head back to work. After all, I have about 3 1/2 weeks to get into a system. If I have established one by then, I will be more inclined to follow it even with other commitments. I will work around them easier. Now, if ONLY I had some weights....hmm...maybe I will ask my mom to take part of my birthday gift money and buy me a set of hand held weights. The kind that are 5, 10, and 15 pounds. I could use them to do lunges and squats. Once I have a solid repetition down with them, I can upgrade to a heavier set. Ahhh...all these plans..must apply some of them now....lol...
In other news, tomorrow I have my first appointment with the neurologist. I have a lot of questions to ask him about the migraine I had that apparently led to or was simultaneously occurring with labor. I read online that it was what is called a "Hemiplegic Migraine".
"Hemiplegic migraines are characterized by paralysis or weakness of one side of the body,
mimicking a stroke. The paralysis or weakness is usually temporary, but sometimes it can
last for days."
I have no idea what causes them. Prior to this one measly sentence about this type of migraine, there is another kind of migraine accompanied by neurological dysfunctions. It is called a Vertebrobasilar Migraine. On the site, it clearly states a CAUSE of this type of dysfunction in accompaniment of the migraine. The Hemiplegic has NOTHING stated to cause it. Hopefully the dr.will have more information on them for me. Having had many migraines over the course of the last 11 years or so, I can definitely state that they have been getting definitively worse over the past 2 or 3 years. they began increasing in frequency a few years ago, and last year is when I first began to notice the auras preceding them. The pattern of escalation concerns me in that there might be a serious reason for it. So wish me luck with the brain doctor. I know he plans to have me fill out a headache diary. Hopefully, he will have a bit more of a plan than that for me in mind. I will update you all tomorrow on the results of my appointment!
For now, toodle-oo!
Vitamin D from skin and brains!

It never ceases to amaze me how successfully fear is used to run our daily lives. We are bombarded with fear generating advertisements on radio, television, the newspapers and magazines.
If you don’t buy it in the next 12 hours, you will lose it forever. If you don’t buy this food or that food, you get a heart attack.
Pictures are painted for your imagination of what will happen to you if you don’t get your doctor to prescribe this drug or that drug and then there are books written by so called experts with book titles designed to frighten you into buying their book because if you don’t, the knowledge you will miss could cost you your life!
One such book was recently written by Dan Hurley who is the health and medical writer for the New York Times. When you read his book, you have to ask yourself, is Mr. Hurley more interested in making big bucks from the sale of his books then he is in providing us with honest information about nutritional supplements?
Can those who believe what he writes bring big trouble upon themselves because giving up or shying away from nutritional supplements can negatively impact their health and lives?
The title of Dan Hurley’s book is “Natural Causes: Death, Lies and Politics in America’s Vitamin and Herbal Supplement Industry” (Broadway Books). In the book he accuses the industry of just about everything short of causing the black plaque.
He states on the cover that the industry sells products that are “untested, unproven, and often tragically unsafe.” The book is intended to be disturbing (that’s what makes it sell), and creates concerns especially for people who take supplements regularly.
But should we really be worried based on the information in Mr. Hurley’s book? I think not.
Hurley’s vitriol is mostly aimed at the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994.
Here is what Hurley says about this act, "Breathtaking in its dimension, DSHEA would end forever the simple legal dichotomy between 'food' and 'drug' to create a third, hermaphroditic category that was both yet neither: the dietary supplement. And beyond the usual suspects -- vitamins, minerals, herbs, amino acids -- the law would permit the manufacturers to define a product as a 'dietary supplement' merely by saying so, no matter if it were artificially derived."
This statement, however, in far from correct.
Here, for example, is an excerpt taken straight from the FDA Web site: "The provisions of DSHEA define dietary supplements and dietary ingredients; establish a new framework for assuring safety; outline guidelines for literature displayed where supplements are sold; provide for use of claims and nutritional support statements; require ingredient and nutrition labeling; and grant FDA the authority to establish good manufacturing practice (GMP) regulations."
Funny, but this appears to be the exact opposite of what Dan Hurley is saying.
Hurley goes on to say that DSHEA turned the clock back 100 years when it comes to regulation of these products, which he also refers to as remedies "redolent of the snake oil era."
He picks the act apart, suggesting it lets anyone sell anything, regardless of how ineffective or even dangerous it might be, and says the industry doesn't have to answer to potential side effects or dangers (called "adverse events") experienced by consumers because the industry is not required to report these events to the government.
I don’t believe this! Where did he get this information from or did he just invent it to sell books?
Far from deregulating the industry, DSHEA elevates FDA industry regulations to nearly match the heavily regulated food industry.
The FDA now has new controls which include its ability to ban supplements, oversee good manufacturing practices, review health claims and hold manufacturers responsible for mislabeled or unsafe products.
The DSHEA also requires manufacturers to supply the FDA with adequate safety information at least 75 days before introducing any “new dietary ingredient” that was not in the food supply before the passage of the DSHEA, and yet another government agency, the Federal Trade Commission, regulates all dietary supplement advertising.
Given these regulations, does this sound like the DSHEA has weakened the laws governing nutritional supplements? I think not.
Hurley offers many ideas for cleaning up the supplement industry, ideas that are already in place.
For example: Hurley calls for better labeling, but DSHEA already requires dietary supplements to list the name and quantity of each ingredient and to identify the part of the plant used for herbal supplements.
Hurley calls for FDA regulation of manufacturing standards. Yet, currently, good manufacturing practice regulations are modeled after current food regulations. Furthermore, the FDA inspects dietary supplement plants.
Hurley also states that manufacturers of supplements do not have to report adverse events caused by their products to the FDA.
Hurley does not do his homework. In December 2006, a bill was passed amending the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act to require manufacturers, distributors and packers of nonprescription drugs and dietary supplements to report serious adverse events to the US Department of Health and Human Services.
Here are some interesting statistics for you: In 2005, the FDA received more than 300,000 serious adverse event reports about drugs. In the same year, it received just 500 reports regarding dietary supplements.
Compare the relative safety and efficacy of vitamins and herbal supplements to further statistics: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen, aspirin, and naproxen are responsible for about 16,500 deaths annually.
Prescription drugs, in spite of extensive testing, cause more that 106,000 deaths annually. You rarely hear of a death caused by nutritional supplements.
Hurley demeans the efficacy of such vitamins as vitamin E, and blatantly omits a Harvard study of over 87,000 nurses in the age range of 34 to 59 that found a 41% reduction in heart disease risk among those who took at least 100 IU of vitamin E supplements for at least 2 years.
A study of almost 40,000 male health professionals ages 40 to 75, found a 37% lower risk of heart disease among those who took daily vitamin E supplements of at least 100 IU for more than two years.
A National Institute of Aging study of 11,000 elderly people found that those who used vitamins C and E supplements had a 53% reduction in mortality from heart disease and a 42% reduction in death from all causes compared with non-users.
There are many other half truths and ignored studies in the book.
It is unfortunate that because of the size of his following and the position he holds in the New York Times, so many people will take this to heart and believe what he written.
Tragically, creating the fear that will keep people from buying nutritional supplements can cause some people their lives.
From my point of view, Dan Hurley’s reports can no longer be trusted regarding health matters. That is most unfortunate as Dan Hurley’s reports reach a wide audience.
Ten years ago I had congestive heart failure. Had it not been for nutritional supplements, I might be dead today.
We have horrendous health problems in the US today which will not be resolved until our medical profession begins looking for answers in nutritional supplements and not in drugs.
My best wishes for you good health and longevity.

No one seems to take me seriously.
I read day after day about a lot of you that are tired and/or sick.
I use two lines of health products that keep me young and healthy. Eniva is great because of the way the liquid is designed to go directly into your blood cells. I've been using it for 4 years for allergies and knee pain.
Vibe is listed in the PDR and has been tested against other liquid nutrition products.

I highly recommend Isagenix for weightloss and cleaning toxins out of your body. I have a friend who's lost 70 pounds in five months using it.
