On B5 and B-Complex [b complex] [b5]

Hi

Just a few questions about B5:

1) Im only taking B5 for 2 weeks, but for the last week I started with 6 grams per day and my urine is bright yellow Fri. Before I started my urine was almost clear because I only drink water (and I still only drink water) so I know the B5, but it is ok to pee bright yellow?

2) What does the B-complex to do (apart from giving you pimples)? Can B5 and biotin, without the B-complex enough to eliminate acne?

3) of the B complex I have is “B + C Complex” and the back is in the ingredients is 200 mg vitamin C, along with other B vitamins. Is it OK to vitamin C in it?

4) I went on Accutane 3 times and each time it worked completely clearing my skin, and I saw the results within one month (and this was on a low dose of 20mg per day), this means so theres a good chance that B5 would works for me?

Reply:Acutane and B5 work by compleatly different means. The fact that you responded well to Acutane would mean nothing if you started B5.
You were on it 3 times and your still not clear. If you go to their website they make it sound like one course is all you need. I had a girlfriend go on two courses and has some really bad side effects. They said that she would never be put on the medicine again, and she has been told about the dangers of taking multi vitamins with Vitamin A in them. It's really sad. She gained 50lbs, lost a good chunk of hair, and can't go out in sunlight to this day without develping a rash on the uncovered areas of skin.

B5 works differently than Accutane. They both work to reduce the amount of oil on your skin, but they go about it differently. B5 is much safer, but takes longer to SEE results.
Search the threads on this board for B5 tips, or what to expect.
If done correctly, B5 will work for 90% of the population.

Reply:1) Yes its okay to pee bright yellow, its just the excess. I also have bright yellow tinkle after ive been taking them.

2) You need to take the b-complex, because there could be some deficiencies in other b vitamins taking b5 alone. Which is why people have been having dry hair that starts to fall out. Keep the complex in your regime.

3) Sure thats fine, vitamins c helps with your skin also, and helps your face heal faster too.

4) I don't know much about accutane, so dunno for sure. Ive been on 5g's for 5 weeks, and just went through a break breakout lasting like a week and some days. I'll see if its the b5 or not. B5 can take longer to take effect, because you aren't taking as much as you did with the accutane, and also its a different way of healing. Stick with you 6g's for a few weeks, and even if you get a huge breakout period, just stay on it.

Good Luck
