Re: More olive leaf questions help please
I had a massive die-off effect that was like flu symptoms; achey. As far as the acne, I noticed in the first week that cyst-like types that never come to a head began turning clear liquidy, not bursting open but sort of "leaking" before they went away. Also, I noticed a general lack of inflammation even in the current pimples...usually mine stayed inflamed forever, hurting, itching, etc. But they calmed down before eventually disappearing. Also, I opened the capsule, made a tea and applied to my face, where it instantly felt less irritated (I heard candida is very much alive on our skin also)
I'd judge the results after the period break-out to be sure the hormonal rush isn't skewing the results. I would say it shouldn't take any more than a week or two to tell if it's working for you...I'm not saying instant clear skin by that time, but you should notice a difference in the way the pimples react, as opposed to their usual behavior.
Good luck and let me know if you've had any improvement!
