Praventin® bioactive complex. Clinically proven nutrients for healthy skin and complexion. Healthy Skin Action Plan. Often considered a challenge for teenagers, acne can affect women and men of all ages. Such skin problems often result from a combination of hormone stimulation, an increase in sebum production, bacteria, stress and poor diet. However, with proper nutrition, healthy stress-reduction techniques, select nutrients and other strategies, blemishes can be both controlled and prevented. Dietary. Along with Futurebiotics AcneAdvance™ and a comprehensive multi-vitamin, eat a well-balanced diet that includes plenty of whole grains, fruits, vegetabales and lean protein. Increase intake of foods naturally high in vitamin A (dark colored fruits & vegetables, lean protein) and zinc (nuts & legumes) as both are important to skin health. Avoid refined and/or concentrated simple sugars and iodine. Physical Activity. Exercise can help reduce stress and increase circulation. Get at least 30 minutes of daily aerobic exercise. Exercise also benefits the skin and aids in maintaining a clean, youthful complexion. Complementary Therapies. Stress can play havoc with your complexion. Simple deep breathing exercises or meditation can help reduce stress. To help reduce the incidence of hyperpigmentation, the dark spots left over from healed blemishes, use SPF 15 sun protection on exposed areas and reapply throughout the day.Do's and Don'ts. Drink plenty of clean, pure water to help flush toxins and keep skin hydrated. Chronic use of antibiotics often triggers intestinal overgrowth of the yeast Candida albicans. This chronic yeast condition may actually make acne worse and should be treated if present. Clean skin gently. Over-washing is actually irritating and excess irritation can worsen acne. Use bare hands to wash and only wash twice a day. Wash your pillowcase regularly in chemical-free detergents. Use oil-free cosmetics. When possible, use products that are labeled as noncomedogenic (not tending to clog pores). Measure your Progress. Clear, healthy skin is possible regardless of your age. With proper nutrition, exercise, good hygiene and effective stress reduction techniques, you will see a visible difference that benefits both your physical and emotional well-being. Praventin® - Patent-pending, clinically proven to reduce blemishes and redness. LinumLife® - Phytoestrogen lignans from Flax, clinically shown to help balance hormones. Natural "skin support" herbs and select nutrients including Zinc. Clinical research has shown that the ingredients in AcneAdvance™, including Praventin®, LinumLife® and Zinc help improve the look of skin by helping to balance hormone levels and by reducing redness and inflammation associated with a poor complexion. Praventin® is a patent-pending, natural protein complex derived from milk. Clinical studies have shown that Praventin® significantly reduced blemishes, with visual results seen within two weeks. This all-natural ingredient promotes a healthier complexion by enhancing the body’s natural defenses to assist in fighting bacteria, reducing redness from inflammation, and helping to repair damaged cells caused by blemishes. LinumLife® Complex provides lignans from Flax, a well-recognized group of phytoestrogens with estrogenic and anti-estrogenic action, which may help in the treatment of acne. Produced through a proprietary process, LinumLife® Complex is concentrated and provides between 10 to 30 times more lignans than whole flax or other flax ingredients. AcneAdvance™ is further enhanced with select herbs and nutrients. A recent study using an “inflammatory score” showed the effectiveness of Zinc Gluconate on acne, while Chromium has been reported to improve acne by supporting glucose tolerance. Burdock, Yellow Dock and Red Clover act as natural internal cleansers to help remove toxins. Centellin®+, a standardized extract of Gotu Kola, helps increase blood circulation to the skin’s surface and provides cleansing and healing actions. Whole, unextracted Gotu Kola is included to provide natural plant co-factors. AcneAdvance™ is potency-enhanced with Futurebiotics BioAccelerators™. Clinically-proven Bioperine®+ (Piper nigrum extract) improves nutrient bioavailability, while our proprietary natural compound of Ginger extract, Trikatu, super-potent Digezyme®+ and Lactospore®+ boosts digestion and absorption. Oral supplementation with Pravetin® resulted in a median decrease of 71% in complexion blemishes after one month and 95% after two months.

"Since I don't want to take medication and am still dealing with sporadic adult acne, I was hopeful this product would make a difference. Unfortunately, I didn't really see a difference. Follow the directions... EAT IT WITH FOOD or just after you ate. It does have a tendency to make you slightly nauseous if you take it on an empty stomach. I since have moved on to Chinese herbs which are working much better for me. This product may work wonders for some people but for some reason, it just didn't do much for me."

"I got this as a free sample when I purchased my first bottle of Futurebiotics Hair, Skin & Nails. Now I take it every day. My skin had occasional adult breakouts - which this product totally eliminated. I live in the mountains - lots of sunshine & low humidity. These 2 products are my daily musts."

"As an adult acne sufferer, now 41 years old, I have to say that this product is fabulous. I have suffered from cystic acne that would flare up on my chin, around my hair-line and on my cheeks. Since taking this product for the past 8 months, I no longer have these problems. If I stop taking the product, the acne comes back, but disappears again in a few days once I start taking the product again. I love the smell of this too. When you open the bottle, it has a very slight fresh grass, tea kind of smell. It makes it very pleasant to take. Great product! It also is the only natural acne product to be backed by scientific research."

"I've taken the tablets for a month and have seen no improvement in my skin condition. It says results can been seen in a month and more improvement will come after 2 months, but the taste of the pills and that lack of evidence thus far have made me not want to spend the money on another month's supply."

"I am 58 yr. old male. I have always had ongoing flare-ups with acne, sometimes very painful welts all over the face. This product has really worked in stopping the welts after two days, all trace of welts gone within a week I am going to continue use of this product and hope that my praise will continue as well. I have had no side effects of any kind."

"I have never written a review before but I had to about this product. My pre-teen daughter was desperate for something to work on her severe acne and I did not want anything with chemicals and medication in it so we decided to try this. The box says to look for results in about 6 weeks, we saw a significant difference in about 10 days. Her acne and scaring have all but disappeared. This may not work so well for everyone but for the price it is sure worth a try! My beautiful daughter now feels beautiful and you can put no price on that !!"

"I did notice an improvement on my skin after taking it for 2 months. It does take some time to get results but it is worth it. I have very little acne but a very greasy skin and since I have been taking this product my skin looks perfect. Furthermore, I digest well the product. Lastly, it has a great composition that you do not find in any other product. I think this is a great value product and I do recommend it."

"While I am generally a big fan of Futurebiotics and I think they have some really quality formulas, after taking Acne Advance for a full month, I can't say that I noticed any appreciable difference in my acne. While the formula looks promising due to its ingredients, I am dissapointed with the lack of results."
