As a Mom to teenagers, we quickly ran across a pretty bad case of acne in one of my children. We tried all of the traditional routes with benzoyl peroxide, sulfur masks, salicylic acid and even stronger pharmaceutical grade skin care products from a dermatologist. When our pediatrician pointed out that my child's skin was actually scarring, I finally got fed up and realized we needed to look at food again. The solution was so easy! Carrot juice. See, I told you it was simple! I would end up using 10-15 carrots, depending on the size of the carrots and would make 12-16 oz of carrot juice every other day for my child. The difference was outstanding! His skin started to clear and eventually the acne was gone. With time, the scars began to fade as well.
The problem was solved and at some point we slacked off and quit making carrot juice. It took a few months, but the acne is back again and I am reminded of the importance of it for my teenage son. So, we started the carrot juice and I am watching it clear the acne from my son's face again. We have shared this with our friends, that had also been suffering with acne, and it worked for them as well. Amazing. It reminds me of the quote by Hippocrates, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” With the carrot juice, there is no longer the need for the medicines.
