This is my big thanks too to Kathy and Kim from Chicago (who mentioned about Pauling Therapy).

I've had very fragile capillaries all my life and had them treated on my face once with an IPL. It helped for a bit but then they returned. A few years ago I was diagnosed with rosacea on top of this. I tried metronidazol gel but it only worked for so long. It went so bad recently that my face normally pale would have a bloody red nose and redness on the cheeks close to the nose. This striking skin contrast and inability to do anything about it (metro no longed helped) was driving me nuts and prompted me to research this website.

I started taking Vit C, 3000 mg Lysine, 3000 mg Vit K2, 100 mg of Kathy's bioflavanoid concoction. Of course, the huge dosages of Vit C and Lysine were frightening at the beginning. But then I read info on this scientist, Pauling, and the research he had done and that he is actually a Nobel Prize winner for Chemistry as well as for Peace; it made me convinced that such large dosages shouldn't be harmful. In fact he advocates for even larger dosages than these. And so as Kathy and Tricia say the results are dramatic already in the very few days but then they level out somewhat.

After two weeks I see a huge improvement - my capillaries are almost gone (faded or dissolved to the point that they are barely visible) and my face complexion is awesome with just a bit of redness on the nose but none on the adjacent cheeks. I can see that the pores are shrinking too (these two weeks I have also been drinking non-pasteurized ACV and putting it on my face before moisturizer at bed time) but this may partially be the effect of ACV. In the last five days I increased the dosages of Vit C and Lysine to 4000 mg 4000 mg as I saw enough evidence that it was working right and plan to stay there for the time being. So once again my big thanks to Kathy and Kim from Chicago for sharing their knowledge and thoughts with us.

To Ted & Kathy fron Dubois- Thank you. Ted's remedy for rosacea (HP & borax) has taken the permanent red flushing out of my skin.

Thank you Ted.

And Kathy's advice for the spider veins has reduced remaining redness drastically. A friend whom I hadn't seen for a while kept asking me if I was feeling alright cos I'm looking so pale. I still have broken veins and some redness so I know she means paler than normal. For the capillaries I had been taking Vit c 1000mg, Vit k 100mcg. Also using Vit c and K (separate products) skin cream. Then I added the flavenoid recipe and bingo within 2 weeks there was a marked improvement. Between the two regimes I can see freckles that hadn't been noticable for nearly ten years. With basic make-up I can make them disappear altogether. And also my skin has become much firmer.

So thank you too, Kathy. A big yea for your recipe.

You might also want to take Vit-K and bioflavanoids internally, too, because what is happening to your face is also happening internally. I had broken capillaries on my face, too, and although I was taking 3,000mg of Vit-C daily, I saw no improvement until I added a lemon/orange peel concoction I made, but the real improvement came when I added a Vit-K supplement to my regime. Bye-bye broken capillaries! Bioflavanoids and Vit-K are also important for healthy bones and periodontal ligaments. The recipe for the Bioflavanoid Brew is as follows:

-3 or 4 organic oranges or a mix of organic oranges and lemons to equal the amount of oranges in the recipe (it is important that they be organic because you are using the peels)
-1 tablespoon sea salt or pink salt
-1/4 cup whey (not whey powder...drain a quart of plain whole-milk yogurt with active cultures to obtain whey for this recipe)
-1/2 cup filtered water or other kind of non-chlorinated water
-1/4 cup of dried sugarcane juice or honey

Proceedure: cut the fruit into quarters the long way and then cut the quarters into very thin slices the short way (a food processor works great for this...use the thinest slicing blade you have)
-Place sliced fruit into a widemouth quart canning jar and press down lightly with a wooden spoon or some other sort of non-reactive implement.
-Combine the rest of the ingredients well and pour over the fruit in the jar. The fruit/liquid needs to be at least one inch below the top of the jar.
-Cover tightly and keep at room tempurature for 3 days before transfering to the refrigerator. You read that right...this is a fermented product and needs to sit at room tempurature so that the lactic acid bacteria in the whey can grow and preserve the product*

Eat about a tablespoon full per day. I fish it out of the liquid with a fork. It has a unique flavor...bitter but still kind of sweet/sour/ salty. It is something of an aquiried taste, but it works wonders and is much cheaper and more effective than bioflavanoid capsules. It also has the benefit of being a live-food/raw-food product and is also very good for the digestion because of the lacto-bacteria from the whey.

*If the product developes a little bit of white mold, just remove the mold with the tip of a spoon.

p.s. I don't remember where I got this recipe, but I would like to give my sincere thanks to whoever invented it...hats off to you, whoever you are!

i have broken capillaries on my face- i heard vitamin k cream would help, but even after 2 months constant application had no results- however when applied daily with vitamin c cream i am seeing NOTICABLE improvement in only 10 days!!! Apply vitamin c cream generously, which absorbs into skin then apply vitamin k cream thickly on top and let dry--leave on as LONG as possssible.
