How
well does B5 work? What percentage of people does it work for?
In Dr. Lit-Hung Leung's clinical study, the results were over
90%. However, this was in a controlled group where patients
followed instructions carefully and were under close supervision
of a physician.We believe 80% to 85% is more realistic, which
is about the same percentage as Accutane's (isotretinion) effectiveness.
The most common reason for failure is not taking enough, not
giving it enough time, and not sticking to a consistent amount
on a daily basis.
How
long will B5 take to work? Will I be able to see results by
the end of my first bottle?
As with Accutane (isotretinion), B5 is not something that works over
night. By the end of the first bottle, most people will start to see signs
by their reduction in skin oil. That is not always the case however, especially
for those who decide not to take the full 20 capsules per day. The body
has to be jarred into producing additional coenzyme A. It generally takes
up to 3 months to see B5's full effects. Because of this, we do not offer
a money back guarantee after the first bottle. We recommend giving it
at least three bottles for B5 to work. We offer a 100% money back guarantee
for all three bottles plus an additional $50 bonus, if by that
time it hasn't worked.
Yes, Evolution-X B5 is effective for both adults and teenagers. You might
be surprised, but the majority of people who use Evolution-X B5 Supplements
are adults.
Why
do you ask that everyone who orders B5 to report their results?
To help us gain support for clinical studies on B5 and to show that it
is truly an effective treatment for acne. This is what must take place
before B5 can become accepted by the mainstream medical industry. Our
goal is to collect results from as many people as we can (note: personal
information is never released to others). We want the results to be completely
open and honest, which is something extremely rare for acne websites on
the Internet. As incentive to report back to us, we offer $10 back in
credit towards anything on the website for each of the two surveys completed.
They each take only a minute to complete.
• For the first three days take 5 capsules, twice a day, for a total
of ten capsules per day.
• After the first three days, take 5 capsules 4 times a day, for a total
of twenty capsules per day (You only have to take this much initially).
• Continue taking 20 capsules a day for the first three months or until
your acne is clear (three months is generally the time it takes to see
the fullest extent of B5's benefits).
• Remember to take all of your capsules as consistently as possible.
Write it down or keep track if you have to. Remember, clear skin is just
around the corner.
• Once your acne has cleared up, slowly start reducing the number of
capsules taken per day. 4 to 15 per day is generally enough depending
on the extent of your acne. If you notice the return of pimples and oily
skin, it means you went under your optimal daily amount. Return to the
amount prior to your last reduction.
• Keep in mind that B5's effects are delayed roughly 2 weeks after consumption.
If you have just started B5, it may take longer, as the body must first
be jarred into producing additional coenzyme A.
Although it takes time to see the full benefits of B5,
it also takes time for it
to fade on a lower amount. Sometimes people don't realize this until two
or
three weeks after they've gone below their optimal daily amounts.
Doesn't
20 capsules a day seem like a lot to be taking?
This is the most common question that we get. The capsules
are very easy to swallow. Keep in mind it'sonly temporary,it's 100% safe,and it'sextremely
effective.The purpose of the 20 capsules per day is to
force the body into producing more coenzyme A. It has to be initially
jarred. After greater coenzyme A production has started, the number
of capsules taken per day can be reduced to a maintenance dose of between
4-15 capsules per day.
We used to think offering larger capsules would be better, because it
would allow for less capsules to be swallowed per day (ours currently
have 510mgs of B5). We soon realized that having capsules in that size
was not the way to go, because they were just too difficult to swallow.
Believe us when we say you do not want capsules in that size.
The problem with larger capsules (especially when a person is taking
more than one at a time) is their tendency to get stuck in a person's
pallet (the throat). They don't get stuck in the typical sense of a person
choking. However, it has the potential to be uncomfortable, painful, and
even dangerous. This is especially true if you're eating when a capsule's
stuck in your pallet. This never happens with our capsules.
Why hasn't the medical community begun
to realize the great benefits of B5 already?
•Vitamin B5 is an all natural treatment.
•There is no incentive to spend the vast resources of getting
B5 approved as a drug, when it is not patentable.
There are established protocols about how to show if a treatment
is effective through clinical studies. Clinical studies are very expensive,
and in order to compensate for these costs the FDA grants patent rights and
other benefits to companies doing drug research. There are restrictions about
what qualifies as patentable. Drugs are not naturally occurring substances,
but are man made, synthesized through chemical reactions in laboratories.
Natural treatments on the other hand, are composed
of substances that are naturally occurring. By their
very nature, they are not patentable. Companies are
not granted any form of compensation for doing clinical
studies on natural treatments. What is the end result?

on the medical community and B5
•A lightening of the stool is the main side effect.
•Mild diarrhea happens in some cases but is not very common.
•Severe diarrhea is very unusual. Please stop taking B5 however, if you
get severe diarrhea.
Generally within the first three
months, the body will adjust
to the high B5 intake levels and stool thickness will return to
normal.
Our preliminary data indicates the following during the first month of
Evolution-X B5 use:
Did Users Experience a Lightening of the Stool?
•Mild stomach irritation happens occasionally. Take B5 in lower amounts
and at greater frequencies if this happens. Try to take it with food.
If it persists reduce the amount of B5 taken per day. Again, the body
tends to adjust to this, and the stomach irritation fades over time.
Our preliminary data indicates the following during the first month of
Evolution-X B5 use:
Did Users Experience Stomach Irritation?
Please note that these graphs are
preliminary data from our anecdotal study. The actual study will
not be published for some time.
• Sensitive teeth is an extremely rare side effect.
• Possible headaches during the initial detoxification (the 1st
week or so of starting). It is a rare effect. It is more common among women.
• Some people experience an increase in energy and sense of well
being.
• Some people experience a decrease in energy and sense of well being.
• If you have any adverse effects from B5 Supplements, please stop
taking it immediately and consult a physician.
• Do not take B5 Supplements if you are pregnant or breast feeding.
Vitamin B5 is a water-soluble vitamin and is very safe to take in high
quantities. It is impossible to overdose. Besides the
minor side effects, no adverse reactions have ever been
reported. Numerous studies have confirmed it's safety.
We advise against taking it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding
however. If you would like links to other sites with
more information about B5's safety and possible side
effects click here.
No. B5 is an all-natural treatment. It will not conflict with any other
medications. Please talk to your physician if you have any doubts or if
you think you've had adverse effects from B5.
What
if I just have mild acne? Would
5-10 capsules a day be enough?
For some people with light acne 5-10 capsules a day is more than adequate.
However, this isn't always the case. The B5 threshold must be taken into
account.
B5's effects tend to be enhanced the most above the 10 capsule per day
range. This is because the body must be forced into producing additional
coenzyme A in order to be effective. The initial threshold must be reached
if you will. This is why we recommend 20 capsules per day until your skin
is clear. If you have light acne it will clear even more quickly, so you
can subsequently reduce your daily amounts.
Is
it possible to take more than 20 capsules per day for very severe acne?
We still recommend 20 capsules per day even for severe acne. There is
a small category of people with acne severe enough that it could warrant
them increasing their intakes above 20 capsules per day. However, do
not take above 20 capsules a day without first consulting a physician.
In the study by Dr. Lit-Hung Leung there were patients who took more
than the equivalent of 20 Evolution-X capsules per day and improved their
results. This should only be done under the direct supervision of a
physician.
Can
I take Accutane (isotretinion) and B5 at the same time?
B5 will not interfere with Accutane (isotretinion), but it is not recommended
to take them at the same time. They both prevent acne in similar ways
and taking both at the same time isn't necessary.
Can
I take B5 as I'm coming off of Accutane (isotretinion)?
Yes. However, if Accutane (isotretinion) has already cleared your skin
it may be perfectly possible to remain acne free just by keeping good
maintenance with applied products. Otherwise, start taking B5 two weeks
before you stop taking Accutane (isotretinion).
How
important are the added ingredients in your Evolution-X B5 formula?
The added ingredients are very important. The two most important ones
are niacin and biotin. The niacin increases bloodflow to the epidermis
and helps cleanse the skin of toxins. Skin flushing is a common result
of this. This increased bloodflow also makes it easier for fatty acids
to be re-circulated into the bloodstream, instead of being released on
the skins surface.
Biotin helps in the absorption of the B5. It is also a key component
in helping the body break down fatty acids as well as proteins.
Riboflavin and thiamin assist the body in digesting food and allow for
higher B5 absorption rates. Manganese is important for carbohydrate and
fatty acid metabolism. There are various other components to our formula,
and they're all very important.
In addition, the molecular structure of B vitamins are very similar.
If a person takes large quantities of vitamin B5 by itself, it can create
a deficiency in the other B vitamins. Normally, it is important to take
a B vitamin complex along with the high quantities of B5. Our B5 Supplements
have this built into the formula however, so there is no need to take
an additional vitamin B complex.
Another important thing to consider is there are different grades of
quality for vitamin B5. Vitamin discounters will often buy substandard
vitamins in order to sell them at a discounted price. Lower vitamin potency
will bring lower results. It is much better to take high quality B5, because
it allows you to take less capsules per day and increases results. Evolution-X
B5 Supplements are made with the highest quality ingredients available.
Their potency cannot be matched.
Are
there any physical characteristics that would increase
a person's chance for success with B5?
To a small extent, yes. It depends on a person's acne to oily skin ratio.
For example, some people may have extremely oily skin, yet only have light
to moderate acne. These people have a slight advantage with Evolution-X
B5. Other people may have less oil on their skin, yet still have an equal
amount of acne. This could be from differences in skin texture, the immune
system, and other things. However, acne is still not possible without
excessive skin oil. Evolution-X B5 is largely effective for everyone,
and this ratio is just a small thing to take into consideration.
I
just started taking B5 and my acne has increased. Is this normal?
During the first week of starting B5, some people notice an increase
in their acne. This is possibly a result of the B5 pushing pre-existing
pimples to the surface of the skin. It is nothing to be alarmed about.
Keep in mind, the positive effects of B5 generally take 2-3 weeks, sometimes
longer before they occur.
Evolution-X B5 is something that falls in between traditional applied
skin products (soaps, cleansers, toners, topical treatments) and Accutane
(isotretinion). There are many people whose acne is not helped by applied
products, yet it simply isn't bad enough to warrant the step up to Accutane
(isotretinion).
If applied skin products have not worked for you, Evolution-X B5 is something
you should seriously consider. If you have not tried the more powerful
topical treatments (Retin-A Micro, Benzamycin) then those might be a good
option as well.
Something else to consider is:
•Evolution-X B5 will significantly reduce the amount of time you
have to spend manually cleansing your skin, which is a definite plus.
It also reduces the amount of money you have to spend on applied products.
In the end it's up to you to make the judgment call. We've tried to make
this website as informative as possible. Please do not hesitate in talking
to your physician if you have any doubts about Evolution-X B5 or your
other options.
