Avatar f tn I haven't heard of any of this anti-aging stuff with these two supplements. I use Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) to help with peripheral neuropathy. I noticed that it really does cut down on the amount of neuropathy I experience. When I did some online research for Acetyl L Carnitine and neuropathy, since it's also used. The difference is that it is recommended that people check with their doctors before using the Acetyl L Carnitine.
Avatar f tn Go to ulta and talk to their estheticians for a professional recommendation. While pregnant do stay away from retinols which are anti aging. They can cause birth defects. But look for something that has hyaluronic acid in it which is a natural chemical our body makes which helps retains moisture by 1000x its weight. So it is super hydrating which will help reduce and prevent wrinkles.

Avatar n tn t do much without some really expensive dermatological treatments, but you could try the anti-aging wrinkle reducing creams in the skin care aisle. You should also wear sun screen every day to prevent further wrinkle formation (not to mention reduce the chances of skin cancer).
Avatar f tn chard, dandelion, kale, celery, carrots and ginger. Your best bet is to blend them into a smoothie so you can eat a lot at once. Raw coco butter and almond oil rubbed directly on your skin helps with elasticity and hydration drink a lot of water.These measures will make a small difference but generally the skin has already been damaged from being stretched and it will wrinkle and sag when it's no longer being extended.

1472647 tn?1297191572 As to the original post, most natural medicine tends to look at skin problems as connected to the liver, and will often suggest a liver cleanse using herbs that have a connection to skin problems, such as burdock, yellowdock, dandelion root, and others. However, I confess to failing miserably at helping my wife's rosacea, so not everyone responds to everything. We tried liver cleansing, blood cleansing, and natural antibiotics, and no success. Never thought about hpylori, though.
Avatar m tn Here's the problem: nobody ever claimed gingko by itself did anything about dementia. It does help oxygenate the blood vessels, and protects blood vessel walls' integrity, but herbs are used in combination, not alone. Problem with these pharmaceutical studies is, they always study herbs in isolation, and that's not how herbalists use them. There's a difference between how herbs are advertised and how they're used by professionals.

Avatar m tn s Gentle Iron or a tonic from Germany called Floradix Herbs Plus Iron (although this one is pricier) -then check levels again in two months. Fixing the iron deficiency will often calm the restless legs. make sure you are getting enough magnesium-at least an extra 400 milligrams a day, preferably magnesium citrate or glycinate, which are absorbed better in the body than the oxide form.

Avatar f tn Hi I'm 20 yrs old and I would like to know what anti aging face cream should I put on to prevent wrinkles.
Avatar f tn I have used 2 types of face creams I think have made it worse - both were over the counter daily anti-aging moisturizers - but thats not the only time it seems to get worse. Does anybody know what this is from and what I can do about it??? It makes it look like I have a mustache but its nothing I can wax off! I have seen Ambi, a OTC skin lightener, but I am scared to home bleach my skin.
Avatar f tn They are well hydrated and will not end up all wrinkled and aging. Avoid direct and long exposure to sunlight. Too much exposure to the sun can cause skin aging. When you are exposed to the sun’s UV rays, make sure you applied liberal amounts of sunscreen to your face and neck. Make sure that you moisturise your face and rinse with water to get rid of any dead skin cells to get that all over glow to your face.
683167 tn?1302879300 Yes, there are many Chinese herbs that have anti-viral properties. This would definitely be a situation where you would need to consult a practitioner of Chinese medicine to make sure he/she addresses both the viral component and immune system component, since your case is so unique.
1713150 tn?1314467342 I know you serious but ROFL! Who on earth is giving you this mythical garbage about MS, one of our biggest annoyances is people saying "but you look so good" lol maybe there is a wacky expectation of us all being wrinkly old prunes, cause MS has su-cked the vitality out of us lol. Genetics and life style, i've always looked 10 years younger than my age, bit of a problem in my younger years.
948202 tn?1245941816 I have not had any breakous for about 2 months since using clindamycin during the day, and sulfacetamide at night. I just recently added the retin-a becasue i wanted some anti-aging benefit. Also, i would like to add an antioxidant serum to my skin since i live in florida and want to protect my skin from UV etc.Do you recommend anything that wont break me out. When would i apply it before or after clindamycin? I use blue lizard face suncream as my spf.
Avatar f tn My dermatologist recommended 2 face washes by Peter Thomas Roth one is the anti aging cleanser and the other is the glycolic cleanser. He told me that it is safe for pregnancy and I confirmed that with my gyno. My 1st born was a boy and I had horrible acne and now this time around my skin is much better since using these. The bottles last forever too.
Avatar f tn This is pretty common all around the world these days, even in the sub tropical areas of the world because of the way we live and work in the modern world. And, because the sun has been villifed too much as the culprit or cause of skin cancer. Actually, a modest amount of sun exposure (not overexposure) will help you out. It is important not to go out so long you get burned. You can find excellent information about vitamin D and deficiency and what to do about it at mercola.
Avatar m tn I haven't seen the research, but neither of these are primarily anti-viral so I'd doubt they would work. I repeat, I haven't seen the research. But when I was in the natural medicine biz managing health food stores, my training from herbalists, nor the herbals I've owned, did not use either of these as anti-virals. Astragalus is primarily used for boosting the immune system and Pao D'Arco as an anti-fungal, particularly against candida albicans.
