Re: Time to accept defeat!
Ya know, I have no idea what your "Genetic" skin problem is, but personally, I would NEVER accept any Doctors (Quacks) telling me that there's "nothing you can do", "your problem is Genetic" and "natural medicine does not always work".
I would be on a mission to prove them wrong!
Iodine will flush out Bromine, which (I'm guessing you have Acne, am I wrong?) I believe may be a problem with Acne. Could be Bromine toxins, or other toxins coming out of the skin. I would keep trying other Protocols if I were you, other Nutrients, Vitamins and/or Herbs.
I would never let some Doctor tell me nothing can be done. After all they are only Humans, and subject to making the same mistakes as you or I.
Life is too important just to give it up over another Human Being's mere opinion!
