I Discovered lactoferrin for Acne

I stumbled across lactoferrin in my journey to find an effective acne treatment. It was after my experience of the highly toxic drug Roaccutane that I decided to go in search of a more natural remedy. I just felt as though the course of Roaccutane I had completed had taken something out of my body. It just didn't feel right exposing my system to that level of toxicity, and I wanted to counteract that with something natural and good for the body.

So, this the first entry on this blog. It is here to document the Internal Health benefits of lactoferrin supplements and also to promote further ways to improve your internal health.

Inner Health - The Key to Vitality

I first discovered lactoferrin 3 years ago. I was in search of a remedy for my Acne prone skin. After having been prescribed every anti-biotic in the book and bought every over the counter, cream, lotion and potion, I discovered lactoferrin.

I had used a "Complexion Supplement" the name of which I will not promote here, and its main ingredient was lactoferrin. I used this supplement over the course of 2 weeks and noticed a reduction in the oil production of my skin. I began to see improvements. However there was only 60mg of lactoferrin per capsule. So I went in search of a pure lactoferrin supplement.
