Severe acne experience

2 people found this helpful

PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW! DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT. It’s hard to believe that these two little pills could cause such issues, but this supplement made me feel dreadful. I lost hair from the first day and broke out in acne. I experienced itching, depression, and severe migraines. This experience was among the worst of my life. I highly advise against buying this; find another product to help yourself.

High B12 causes acne

5 people found this helpful

This product helped flatten my stomach, likely from probiotics, but I experienced severe acne due to the high B12 dosage. I couldn't understand why my face broke out; it got worse and left scarring. After analysing my diet and health, I realised that stopping the supplement cleared my cheeks completely. High levels of B12 or iron can trigger acne; consult a doctor before taking this.
