Review on Organic Roasted Dandelion Root Herbal Leaf 🌿 Tea - 16 Tea Bags (Pack of 6) by Jason Hood

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing for hormonal acne

I'm buying this in a pack of six because I'm going through this. I honestly don't like the taste very much, but you can get used to it. Like many of the other reviewers here, I drink this because (thanks to this tea!) I had severe hormonal acne that appeared along the jawline and sides of the chin. (Contrary to many reviewers, I'm a woman but I don't have polycystic ovaries, just horrible skin.) I read somewhere that people take spironolactone for this type of acne and resigned myself to waiting until my year is over . that I can go to a dermatologist, then I read on SkincareAddiction that sometimes people use mint for the same thing! Apparently it is associated with an excess of androgens. For this reason I sincerely recommend it to women, but I'm not sure what happens to men when they take it since androgen is a male hormone. I first found this product at a local health food store and dove in, starting with two cups a day and tracking the amount of blemishes around. (I'm neurotic.) The first day I had 27 spots. On the tenth day I had five. By the end of the first month I had no blemishes along my jawline - at that point I reduced the dose to one cup a day due to cost and everything else and found it effective in maintaining my new clean skin. I've been doing this for about six months now, I finally have the right to go to a dermatologist and now I'm not worried. By the way, I haven't noticed much of an impact on the rest of my face β€” other than that hormonal thing, I get breakouts when I deserve it (falling asleep with makeup on, weekends eating crappy food) and mint didn't help. has neither a positive nor a negative effect. I buy these in packs of six online because they're pretty hard to find in stores! The first box I bought was the only one in this health food store and I had to top it with Bigelow's Mint Medley which was a mix of different mints and as far as I can tell only spearmint has this effect. I saw faster improvements when I drank pure mint.
