Helpful Review: "[...] The reason I ordered these is because I was looking for something all natural to help clear any toxins in my digestive system, I have been having a lot of stomach pain, as well as very stubborn acne for the last year. The acne I've had was like never before I lasted forever and left terrible scars. [...] I drink a ton of water a day, and I recently stopped eating meat, besides the occasional ground turkey. But I don't know if it's due to the supplements alone or the decrease of animal product but my skin hasn't been this clear in over a year since the bad acne started. Even when my cycle started I didn't get any new pimples! I am so impressed, best $25 I spent in a long time!"
