I had a little acne during my mid teen years, but nothing that really affected my self esteem. Now, as a young adult, my acne is suddenly much worse. It’s to the point that I don’t like looking in the mirror, feeling the texture of my face, or even going outside of my house. I’ve no idea why it’s gotten so bad so quickly. Like you, I don’t want to go the route of intense antibiotic treatment or chemical ointments. I just don’t think they’ll help me in the long run, nor do I like the possibility of adverse side effects. I have considered seeking holistic help, and your video has really solidified that desire. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and giving such helpful advice!💕
Hi Hannah! Thank you so much for those kind works and I hope you can find some real answers and find the root cause going the holistic route!! I completely understand how you feel with the acne and it can be such a discouraging process. Good luck on your journey!!❤️
@Bethany McEnaney
Thank you!
Omg we have the same wedding date! I remember trying to heal my acne in time for my wedding. I have acne in my photos, and while I wish I didn’t have acne for my wedding, I look at how happy I was that day and I don’t focus on my skin. Thanks so much for making this video, you’re gorgeous!
So true! And so funny we have the same wedding date!! Haha thank you so much for watching! 😊
I work for a holistic practice, and what you are saying about nutrition, down to what you are eating truly does impact every part of your body. Thank you for sharing your journey, so inspiring for many people! Definitely seek out an informative naturopathic practitioner if you can❤
Thank you so much for this kind response to my video ❤️ It’s always so nice knowing there are others out there who really believe in healing from the inside out! Love this!
Just came across your video today. It’s been a very hard day! My daughter is struggling with acne and this whole day I’ve been asking God for wisdom on what to do. I too believe in holistic methods and eat organic. Watching your video today gave us the answers we’re looking for. Gonna book an appointment with a natropath doc on Monday. I don’t believe in traditional western medicine anymore and haven’t in a while. Thank you so much for sharing your story and I pray one day my daughter will also share hers. The scriptures at the end also confirmed my prayers today! God bless you ❤
Hey there🥰 Thank you so much for watching and for writing those kind words. I know acne can be such a hard hard journey so I am praying for you and your daughter to have wisdom and peace during this time! I’m thankful that you came across my video and I hope it helps in the long run! Good luck with your journey❤️
I am crying to see your honest video. My beautiful daughter has bad acne since she got into highschool. It getting worse and worse. I tried so many things and methods for her. Nothing really helps. Can you share your doctor’s contact here?
I can help you. My method works.
Reply if you need the way to cure acne.
I have been there. Done that.
Trust me.
It works.
Take care❤@@感恩生活
I love how you didn't take any heavy medication or any skincare because as you said during acne our skin is already so irritated and I have realised that it gets worse after applying skincare or any harsh product .
I've had acne from the past 2-3 months and i tried medication and different ointments but it only made it worse. I stopped applying anything, I didn't even wash my face with face wash, just Clear water and it started getting better and I still have some on my forehead but I know it will go away . I think it's all about trusting the process ! But it definitely can take a toll on your mental health 💔
Awe thank you so much! I definitely felt better about the more natural approach too but everyone’s different! Thank you so much for the kind words and for watching 😊❤️
Thank you so much for sharing all of this and being so vulnerable and honest. I'm struggling with worsening acne right now and it's been truly one of the most discouraging things in my life. Like you said, it really takes a toll on your self-esteem and mental health. I'm going to look into natural path practitioners near me and see what I can do! Thank you for making this video, Bethany!
I’m so sorry you’re struggling with acne right now. It’s so hard to deal with! I hope you can find some answers! ❤️
I admire your bravery!! This video was super helpful & I’m a huge proponent of healing from the inside out :)
Thank you so much Lily, I really appreciate that! And YES! healing from the inside out 🙌
Unrelated to acne but you look like Anya Taylor-Joy. I’m so jealous!
i have watched this over and over again as its the only thing that can give me hope. I have horrible cystic acne that makes yours look mild. My life is hell. I am never going to get this time back i am 19 and i just hide inside. i follow the medical medium diet with celery juice and am praying that a heavy metal detox can shift this and my life can come back. Thanks for sharing your story it helps
Wow Adam I’m so sorry! Ugh I hope you can find some healing and answers VERY soon! Stay strong and keep up the good work! I know diet changes and detoxes can take awhile before you start to see results so hang in there!
I totally feel you. I think about that all the time, being 19/18 and hiding myself away because of how awful I feel, wasting my youth… it sucks. Just know you’re not alone and more people will understand and accept u and me than people that won’t. Head up bb
Hi take
1 vitamine D3 2000ue
2 Cut carbs sugar milk pasta Rice
3 take cod liver Oil
4 fasting Have 1 metal or 2
5 eat salmon or fatty fish
6 vitamin A
Good luck
How has it been now?
@@Xoprettycam Hi Cam! My skin is still doing so much better! I have noticed some acne will come up if I'm not paying attention to my diet or not keeping up with my lymphatic drainage. Usually too much sugar is when I'll notice some pimples pop up, but then I just adjust my diet accordingly and make sure I'm being mindful of my diet :) I also will celery juice occasionally if I see any pimples. Now that I understand more of WHY it's showing up, it's a lot easier to manage and quickly resolve any acne if it comes up! But in general, it's still so much better! I'm about a full year out from when I cleared up my skin perfectly, and I think doing a routine heavy metal detox once a year might be what I start doing as sort of a maintenance, but we'll see! 😊
I know you said many times the diet didn’t clear up your acne it was the supplements but then around 19:00 mins you said that they found ingredients linked to your heavy metals in your system that were found in pesticides, so eating organic was important to you. I’m not shaming you in any way I’m just trying to educate you from someone who grew up on a farm and is getting their masters in Agronomy, those same ingredients are found in organic pesticides as well and it actually takes more pesticides to raise a organic crop than it does conventional crops so please don’t fall for the marketing scam of non gmo or organic is better for your health because it’s 100% not. The less processed Foods are better for you absolutely but it’s not non organic that would ever cause any issues with health. I came here to hear your acne story as I too have acne and just thought I would tell you that as someone who grew up with it and works in science
Hey Cassie! I actually grew up on a farm too and still work on our family farm full-time. I don’t know if you’ve watched all the videos in my Health Journey playlist but I had a lot of other tough issues going on alongside the acne and some of the biggest ones were leaky gut, worsening asthma and newly developed food sensitivities. I definitely know that some pesticides are still used on organic crops, but in my case with my health journey, eating organic fruits and vegetables drastically helped my asthma decrease and my reactions to fruits went way down. Everyone’s different so what helps one person might not help the next, but it’s definitely worth trying out organic if someone is struggling with their health and is looking for answers. There are lot of harsh chemicals used in agriculture, a lot of which make it into our food, so I want to promote organic because in my case it helped my asthma and food sensitivities a lot. Eating organic could most definitely help someone so I always want to share that as an option for people to play around with just incase it helps them. It’s true that I couldn’t tell a direct link between my acne and gluten-free dairy-free, but I 10000% felt the connection between diet, my asthma and food sensitivities.
Thank you so much for being Authentic . Stay blessed. Stay healthy ❤
I'm 29 right know I've had acne since I was 14 and never experienced what it feels to feel absolutely confident with yourself.
This might be the light at the end of the tunnel if it works.. just purchased kidney + metal-x due to the other one only delivers within the US.
I'll update the progress in 2 months, see you till then.
Update?
The way people judge , don't how can they say something so bad ,as if I'm the one putting up all the acne knowingly on face . One of my friends,told me , ... Don't you feel disgusted by seeing your own face in the mirror , it's been a year to this ,may be she has forgotten it ,but it's gonna stay with me for life ik🙃
I wouldn’t be friends with that person anymore 😭
I started accutane last week, I was so excited but this Saturday I had a severe headache (had a dove one all week but thought it was normal). Speed up to Saturday, visiting my parents they found me unconscious and yeah I’m of the meds so this will be my journey. Hopefully I can heal it naturally ❤happy to be here
Oh my gosh that’s wild😱 I’m glad you’re ok! And I’m glad you’re here!😊 I do really believe people can heal their acne naturally once they figure out what’s driving it! Good luck and let me know if you have any questions along the way!
@@bethanymcenaney If your vacinnated or recently boosted, I would wonder if there was a connection or adverse interaction with Accutane and a MRNA based vaccine ?
Hi Flo! I haven’t gotten either of those, and I’ve never been on accutane so I can’t really speak on that!
@@bethanymcenaneyWhat’s the name of your naturopath?❤
I saw a naturopath in Roswell, GA at Longevity Health Center. There’s a handful of naturopaths that work in the office!
This video is proof that life does get easier
So true❤️ it gets easier
As someone who has acne, I never want anyone to mention it. I would have someone look at me and say “don’t worry we’ll get this fixed” I was feeling ok that day too😢
Oooomg the best video of acne ever i swear.....how amazingly u explained..... God bless me...u helped me todayy... I'll be thankful

Such an amazing story, thank you for sharing your journey, I loved hearing a different take on what you were experience . the heavy metal situation was an eye opener. I am def going to look at your other videios because I want to see your approach on having such a strict diet. I find it difficult to stay away from gluten!
Thank you so much for your sweet comment❤️ I’m glad it was an eye opener! I hope my other videos will be helpful!
My suspicion is that you had a Candida problem and the product for heavy metals which contained Chorella functioned as a very effective botanical anti-fungal.
I'm in the same boat now!! I had clear skin my whole life. Grew up in The Bahamas, no issues. As soon as I moved to the US, my skin went nuts and different things started happening to me health-wise that were out of sight and I truly believe it was the food. I was exposed to foods that were processed and just grown/harvested differently to what I was used to. Also had no idea about detoxing or anything like that so I was completely clueless. I've been on my acne journey since late 2019/early 2020 I'd say. Tried Curology and other popular skin care products, nothing worked. The acne kept coming back and got worse.
In the past 3 weeks or so I've JUST managed to figure out how to stop my breakouts. Personally for me, I started washing my face once a day only in the evening after my workouts and using my current acne medication every other night (which I will completely stop after it's used up). I heavily dialed down the use of treatments on my face and it's now balanced in terms of oil production and moisture so that's helped. I no longer have oily skin to where I have an oil slick at the end of the day and my pores are no longer clogged with oil and whatever else so now I have a fighting chance at clear skin. Prior to that, I switched to clean eating and have been taking a daily cleanse supplement by HUM. All of that has worked for me thus far. Cutting out garbage ingredients in your food that lead to inflammation, leaky gut etc + detoxifying makes a world of difference across the board!
This video has really prompted me to see a naturopath so I can discover the root cause of my acne though. I'm not 100% certain it's food/toxins but I have a very good feeling it is. Can't wait to seek out a naturopath real soon and find out everything that's going on. Thanks for sharing your journey and I'm so stoked for you!!! I've finally gotten pass the stage of looking in the mirror and crying or hating myself for how I looked because my breakouts have now subsided. Totally get the feeling of desperation to just have your skin clear up! Next stop is targeting these dark spots + ensuring everything's jiving internally. SO happy for you and thank you for this
Hey Bri! Wow hearing your story is incredible!! I’m so happy that you’ve been able to find a routine that has helped calm down the acne!! Yes it can be so hard and discouraging so I’m so thankful you’ve found some things that work for you!! I love my naturopath and it has helped SO much so I highly recommend!! Getting to those root causes can be LIFE CHANGING! Thank you so much for watching my video and commenting! I love hearing those success stories🥰
Check out Anthony Williams medical medium on acne !! His advise saved my skin
❤️
@@bethanymcenaney hey Beth, thank you and I appreciate the kind words🥰🥰🥰. It really is tough and discouraging and times but such a huge relief when you finally figure it out! Getting to those root causes are so important forreal!! Thanks for the support and you’re welcome!!! One of the few acne videos I’ve ever watched that was different and just helpful in every way!
@@Jessilavender will check him out hun, thanks for the recommendation ❤️
That makes me so happy to hear🥰 I’m glad this video was helpful! Thank you so much for the kindness and support!
I’ve had chronic cystic acne for 8 years now. I cry everyday. It’s so painful and nothing works. I’m hoping cutting out eggs will work for me!
It could be hormonal such as too high estrogen, which means you should avoid processed foods. It could also be caused by too high androgens, which in that case means you should take zinc supplements. Foods like milk that contain growth hormone can cause it too. Pay attention to skin care and hair care products since those can also clog pores.
I really wish I could see your specific naturopath she seems so thorough and knowledgable and I feel like ones I’ve seen don’t know what to do or just want my money :/
Yeah I’d be curious to see if you found one that did the same or similar tests that I got done maybe you’d have a better experience? I really appreciated that my diet and supplements were very specific to me based on the testing I got done! It was all backed by evidence not just guessing! I got the bioenergetic test, thermography, and a urine analysis!
do you know the company you got it done through? @@bethanymcenaney
Thanks for sharing Bethany 🫶🏻 Great video!!!
Thank you so much!❤️
Did you reincorporate egg, coffee and other food after healing your gut?
Did your acne get worst before healing?
Did you have any symptoms while detoxifying?
Thanks for a great video! I’m doing my Rea search, because at this point I tried EVERYTHING 😢 and will follow the naturopathic route 💕
.

Bethany your doctor sounds so educated and aware of all these things ive been studying for years but havent found a naturopath yet who understands the instracies of these things can you please please share her name and the clinic because i wsnt to go to her only
Also what the name of the tests that you did the heavy metal test and the test to see what is compatible with your body ( the one that helped you choose your supplements
Hi Angel! I went to Longevity Health Center in Roswell, GA. They have a handful of naturopaths who all work there and can run all the same tests. The bioenergetic test is the basic test they do with everyone no matter what! That’s the one that found the heavy metals, food sensitivities and a lot more! That same bioenergetic testing is also what they use to find the perfect supplements for you! They do have other tests that I also got done, but the bioenergetic one can tell you a lot!
This is Awesome! Thank you So Much for Making This Video & your honest, candid, insightful, and encouraging perspective!!!! I’m excited to start my journey with healing my skin 💟💜🤍 And thank you for the great idea - to find a naturopathic doctor!!!! I have avoided doctors offices for years because I don’t agree with their medications approach vs. lifestyle changes & finding the root cause approach, and so a naturopathic doctor is a Great idea 😃 💡 ! ! ! !
As for the scarring!- I just came upon a cool video talking about hair regrowth and using a microneedling roller on the scalp and they were referencing how it’s now being shown to start working wonders for acne scarring!- Because it causes the cells to go into wound healing mode and repair it in a way it wasn’t before so if it resonates to - look into that! Thank you again! Blessings and your transformation was absolute incredible!!!!! How your beauty is coming through so clearly! Blessings 🙏 👐
Thank you so much for this sweet comment! I’m so thankful this video has resonated with so many people! And yes! I have actually looked into getting some microneedling done so that might be my next step in healing the scarring and hyperpigmentation! 🥰 Good luck on your healing journey! I’m rooting for you!!
This is really an inspiring video…and is going to be helpful for many people. Can you pls also make a video on what you did for scarring or the skin care you do follow to reduce hyperpigmentation?
Thank you so much for your kind words Deeksha❤️ I do plan on doing an update video soon about my overall health, and I’ll definitely share what skincare I’m using. I haven’t fully figured out the scarring situation yet either but when I do I’ll share!!😊
Hi Bethany! So happy your mental health was healed as well....I wish that for my teenage daughter! Do you mind giving us the reference of your naturopath, or at least tell us what her specific credentials are so I can find the right one in my area?
Hi! I saw one of the naturopaths at Longevity Health Center in Roswell, Georgia. I believe naturopaths have a doctor of naturopath medicine degree for credentials I think? So I’d just search for a naturopath in your area because I think they all have to have a four year naturopath degree for their credentials! As far as the testing I got done I think those would be specific to the office you visit and what tests they run. I got a urine analysis, thermography scan and bioenergetic test!
@@bethanymcenaney I think the reason @melaniechristman3728 asked for a naturopath recommendation is because not all naturopaths are the same:) I have been working with a naturopath and had quite a few consultations and testings, but the issues never resolved (digestion, hormones, acne). I believe that maybe she was not taught some methods of testing or because these kind of testings are not present in my country:)
❤❤Your channel is literally my comfort place. You make me so happy. 🤗❤❤
Awe that’s literally the sweetest thing to hear🥰 Thank you so much for being here!❤️
Girl you look so much like AOC i had to do a double take when the video started
You’re so beautiful and I love the way you think as far as holistic approach. Congratulations on your self improvement journey!
Thank you so much! That’s so kind
You Go Girl!!! Well done
Thank you!
Hi Bethany, thank you for sharing your Great Story 🙏
How did you test your heavy Metals ?
I believe we found the heavy metals through the bio-energetic test I took with my naturopath! It was years ago so I’m trying to remember exactly but I think that’s the test that they showed up on. You can take blood work though and get heavy metals tested for!
This was such a great video! Congrats on beating your acne! I'm really sorry for what you went through. I know how it feels because I've had acne for a very long time. I'm in my forties and I finally figured out what was actually causing my acne. It had to do more with what I was and was not eating. That affected what was happening in my body and caused me to break out. For me, it was my gut. I noticed that I would get acne whenever I was constipated, which I thought was strange. Once I started eating a high fiber diet, my constipation went away. And guess what, so has my acne. I also try to eat as little or no sugar as possible. The only sugar I use is coconut sugar or fruits like berries. I drink lots of water. As for dairy, I switched to lactose free milk. That helped ALOT. I am a big cheese lover so I also make sure to only eat cheese that doesn't have any hormones, same with my chicken. So yes, what is going on in your body has ALOT to do with your acne. I hope this helps someone.❤
It really gives me hope.. 😭 thank you for sharing..
You’re welcome! I know acne can be so tough and defeating but I wish you best of luck on your journey!
I've had acne now for about 30yrs. I will be 40 in a cpl months. I know my body has something off inside and have been to multiple derms. with just getting prescriptions. They don't ask questions about diet, don't take any test or anything just hand out prescriptions. This last one gave me Sprinaolacone (spelling?) and I had seen other ppl say it worked for them and what not. Basically, it's blood pressure medication that may help with hormonal breakouts. My hormonal breakouts did get better but not my overall acne and I had that all over face, back, shoulders, stomach..... All over and non of that acne cleared at all. Not to mention I had side effects of mussle spasms or twitches in my neck. I would get that a lot to where my boyfriend even saw the twitch/spasm in my neck once. It was a bad one. I stopped taking the meds on my own. And the symptoms went away. When I took it again they came back. So I knew it was from the meds. I recently stopped takening them again and my regular all over acne remains like normal as well as all the big breakouts returning as well. I have not been back to the derm. and have been thinking about going to a naturalpathic doctor. I always thought it was off for my derm to prescribe me something that would help hormonal acne without even doing any hormonal test. I know I need to change what I ear and that is a huge struggle for me since I have are crap my whole life and am terrible at cooking so trying to cook healthy hasn't went so well. I definitely won't be giving up and will continue to try to get to the root cause of mt acne.
Hi Jennifer! I’m so sorry you’ve been struggling with acne for so long. I would definitely recommend looking into a holistic approach if that’s something you’re curious about! It definitely helped me tremendously!
Are you able to share what testing you got? Or the names of it all? I’m not from Georgia, but I wanted to find a place equivalent that is able to test for the same type of stuff :)
Thank you so much for sharing your skin journey ❤️ im so glad I found your content im struggling too I will try the supplements
Thank you so much for sharing! What tests did you do?
Hi Megan! I did a bioenergetic test, a urine test and a thermography test all at my naturopath’s office. The bioenergetic test found the heavy metals,food sensitivities and vitamin deficiencies mainly (it checks a LOT of things though) and then the urine test tested my adrenals, kidneys, oxidation levels, vitamin C levels and a few other things, and then thermography was a body scan essentially that saw where I had lymphatic blockages!
I had backne in my teens i finally got rid of it when I turned 20. Got i back at 26 year later i am so frustrated i tried everything that i had done to get rid of it I just can not get rid of the scaring and sometimes it becomes active again i really tried everything
I needed to hear this
Hi Bethany, did you experience purging when starting to consume those supplements? Anyway, your story gives me hope since I have been having a broken face (due to acnes) for 17 years and spent millions for nothing. I hope this will be my last try. Thank you for sharing it!
Hi there! I personally did not experience purging because my naturopath and I worked on supporting the liver and kidneys a few months before starting the heavy metal detox supplement. Focusing on supporting the body’s detoxing pathways such as the liver, kidneys, sweating is important to do first before trying to detox. Hopefully by doing that you won’t experience as extreme of symptoms. I would highly recommended working with a holistic practitioner to help you during the process!
I am so sorry you’ve been struggling for so long though and I hope you can find some answers soon! Getting to the root cause of the acne is key though, whether it’s toxins, leaky gut/poor gut health, hormones, etc! Good luck ❤️
@bethanymcenaney Thank you for your kindness 😊
Thank you very much!!!This video is very helpful🥺🌷♥️♥️
You’re so welcome! I’m glad it was helpful❤️
Hi Bethany, could you be more specific about the tests you've done? for the kidney, were blood test? what about lympathic system and heavy metals? Thanks :)
Hi Lara! Yes! I think in some of my earlier videos I go a little more in depth about the tests I got done but for kidneys it was a urine analysis that also tested for a lot of other things, and then the lymphatic system was a thermography scan, and then heavy metals were mostly from the bioenergetic test. The thermography scan can give recommendations as to what they think is the problem and heavy metals and toxin buildup was also in the thermography! I got all those done through my naturopath! The thermography also indicated that my lower back/kidney area was not responding the way it should on that test. So it was a combination of urine analysis, thermography, and bioenergetic test! The bioenergetic test can also tell you exactly which heavy metals and toxins are in your system as well as like parasites, viruses, food sensitivities and a lot more!
@@bethanymcenaneyThat must've cost a fortune. 😅
It actually didn’t! All of those tests plus the consultation with my naturopath and her going over my results cost around $400. I unfortunately had already spent way more than that at allergists, primary care doctors, etc trying to figure out what was wrong. So $400 to have multiple tests done and get results that same day blew my mind! Haha And was worth every penny! Haha
@@bethanymcenaney So happy for you. Am planning to see a naturopath but still looking. Please can you share yours with me? TIA
Hi Jenny! I saw one of the naturopaths at Longevity Health Center in Roswell, GA! They have multiple in the office so you can see any of them!
Thank you for sharing, which clinic did you go, any specialty in homeopathy, Dr name pls?
I wish I saw a naturopath instead of a dermatologist. I wrecked my gut by taking accutane and antibiotics. It affected my general health in long term.
Hi! Thank you for sharing your story!! Any advice on how to find a naturopath??
Hi Lorraine! Truthfully I don’t have any savvy ways of finding a naturopath! I found mine through word-of-mouth, but usually when I’m looking for a more holistic option I Google search like “holistic doctor near me” “functional medicine near me” “naturopath near me” etc, and then from there I just go through everyone’s websites and look for their certification or what kind of practice they are! It can be time consuming but it’s usually worth it for me in the end. I did all of that when looking for a functional dentist!
What kinda test you did before getting the supplements???
I took a urine analysis, thermography body scan, and a bio-energetic test all with my naturopath!
Can you list multivitamin? Are you able to eat dairy again? I often read to ditch dairy but what about raw…
Im living the worst days because my wedding is coming up and im having the worst acne. The worst part is that i dont have any naturopathic doctor around me that can be covered by my insurance
Thank you SOOOOO much I really think this will help me!!!!!!!! So much appreciation!
You’re welcome!! I hope you can find some answers!
@@bethanymcenaney thanks! Out of interest why did they make u cut out nuts? I've cut out the other stuff already cos of mine but never considered nuts
@@bethanymcenaney Also do u know what type of tests you did? Was it a blood test to detect heavy metals and kidneys or different types of tests? I have tried everything but my acne is so similar to yours in area etc that I'm convinced it could be the same cause
Yes! So my naturopath did a bioenergetic test and I think that’s the one that found the heavy metals and food sensitivities, and then I did a urine test that showed my kidney and adrenal stress along with other things, and then I did a thermography test that showed where my blockages were, which showed how blocked up my lymphatic system was especially near my face! So bioenergetic, urine analysis and thermography. My naturopath did all those tests in one appointment, so you might have to find a naturopath that does similar tests. Bioenergetic testing is used a lot in the holistic field I think though so you could probably find somewhere that at least does the bioenergetic testing!
I didn’t have any actual food sensitivities for nuts show up on my testing, but I personally felt like they made me feel off so I actually was nut free for awhile! I still kind of am but I’ll have coconut fairly often now!
This has been so helpful! Thank you so much for sharing!!
You’re SO welcome!! 😊
Thank you so much!!!❤️
You’re very welcome!☺️
I'm having terrible breakout..... During Jan this year I had almost total of 4 swollen lymph node.... Had to removed the biggest one to get it checked.... But after getting it checked Dr said tht it was because my body can't detox properly and drainage was clogged... Gave some mess but today I got a new swollen lymph node and tons of acne😢 not sure what to do and where to get help....
I’m so sorry to hear this! Our body’s ability to detox properly is very important to overall health. I would personally recommend seeing a nutritional therapy practitioner that specializes in detoxing. We detox through sweat, our liver, our kidneys, our lungs. When my lymphatic system was backed up I would do hot epsom salt baths to try and sweat as much as I could. I went to saunas, I would do dry brushing to get the lymphatic system flowing again. Walking/exercise can also help get things flowing. One thing I learned with my toxin-induced acne was the importance of supporting my liver, kidneys and trying to sweat so that my lymphatic system isn’t having to work as hard. supporting the other ways our body detoxes can be a big help too. Go to caitcrowell.com if you’re interested in working with a practitioner who could run some testing. Her team specializes in detoxing/root cause issues!
@@bethanymcenaney thank you for the knowledge shared❤️ I'm hoping my skin will clear up... May I know what heavy metal supplements there is available in Malaysia?
I’m not sure what supplements would be available in Malaysia, but helping the body’s natural detox pathways could be a good place to start until you find a practitioner who could maybe help you along the journey. There are some different teas that support your liver and kidneys, which could also be an option when starting out. Dandelion tea and milk thistle tea are good for liver detoxification, and nettle leaf tea can be good for kidney support.
Thank you for sharing this.. very helpful!
You’re so welcome!😊
Thank you so much for this video! Does your naturopath offer telehealth consultations? I'm struggling with finding a suitable functional practitioner who specializes in adult acne near me
I don’t know if they do but I would lean towards no. I know they do some testing at each visit so if they can’t run those tests I’m not sure if they would offer telehealth. However, I would recommend a nutritional therapy practitioner as most of them do business online and can order labs to be done and have the results mailed back to them!

Has anyone tried the medical medium heavy metal detox?
Gurl how much u paid for the total treatment 😮
Ive eaten eggs and dairy most of my life and never had a problem with my skin from it so i domt know if that will really make a differcne to it now even though ive had sudden acne since december
I’m sorry you’ve had recent acne pop up! I know that’s frustrating. People can develop food sensitivities later in life, which is what happened to me! I grew up eating gluten, dairy, eggs, etc but I developed food sensitivities later on. It’s not necessarily the cause of acne for everyone so in your case it might not be!
Hi! How did you find your naturopath? What kind of certifications or background did they have? I want to look for one but want to make sure they are legit 😞
This video is so good ❤
Tyfs
Thank you so much! ❤️
I had severe chronic acne! Turns out I was celiac! Took many doctors to figure it out
So glad you were able to get to the bottom of it!! Crazy how so many things can affect acne!
Longevity SAVED my life 👏🏼
Thank you Lily! I appreciate you more than you know for steering me towards it!
Which all tests did you get done?
What test was that, that found that your body wasn't detoxing?
what was the cause of the heavy metals in your body? did you eat a lot of fish? do you still eat fish?
Hey there! Heavy metals are in a lot of things so it can be hard to pinpoint exactly where they came from, but some of the specific ones that we found for me are commonly found in pesticides, herbicides and fungicides. I grew up on a produce farm that used those so I was probably exposed a lot more than the average person, so I personally started switching to organic produce and packaged foods as one step. I don’t eat a lot of fish so I don’t think that was part of it for me personally. Aluminum was also a common one they found so I switched deodorants and stopped using aluminum foil when cooking. It’s impossible to avoid all toxins, heavy metals, etc but I try my best to make simple swaps and then support my body’s natural detox pathways like the liver and kidneys the best I can❤️ Hope that helps!
Hello can you share what you took for your adrenal glands and what multivitamin you were recommended by your NP Doctor?
Hi Sandra! Ok this was a few years ago so I’m going off memory some haha I don’t recall taking a specific supplement for my adrenals, but I believe my kidney supplement had some herbs like ashwaganda and some others that were also good for my adrenals so it was a supplement that supported both. I also drank Holy Basil tea morning and night that’s another herb that supports adrenal function. I also tried implementing stress-reducing lifestyle practices like relaxing baths, breath work, prayer/meditation and things like that! Essentially anything that calms or relaxes the body can support adrenal function. Your adrenals are what produces cortisol, the stress hormone, so Holy Basil, Ashwaganda, Magnesium and some other herbs can be helpful in calming down the adrenals.
Hey! Are you no longer taking the metal detox supplement?? Thank you!
Hey Teresa! That’s correct! It’s not a supplement that you stay on long term because sometimes doing a heavy metal detox can deplete other vitamins so this was like a “one and done” sort of detox! And if I ever need it again I would do another detox and finish out probably one full bottle of that supplement!
@@bethanymcenaney This is helpful! Thank you. I have had horrible acne for years, still do. But i recently found out I had lead poisoning, as well as a couple other things like bacteria and yeast overgrowth and an ulcer in my gut. Crazy stuff. I tried detoxing it all at once but the metal detox is what I think hurt me the most. After I finish taking care of the other stuff I'm going to try that supplement you used! I admire you for taking the holistic route and finding your root causes it is NOT an easy journey, I know. Thanks again.
Yikes lead poisoning is no joke! And dysfunction in the gut is no joke either! I’m so sorry you’re dealing with all of that. Feel free to reach out anytime with questions! It nice chatting with you on IG! Best of luck!!
Look into coffee enemas to aid detox. Superb !!!
What makeup are you using on your face in this video? It looks very natural. :)
Hey! I’m using Maybelline SuperStay foundation and their SuperStay concealer!
all these supplements you take forever? and the eggs you never eat again?
Hi! No I won’t take these supplements forever. I took the heavy metal detox one for about 3 months and it cleared up my acne 100%, I took the kidney support ones for maybe 6 months? I started the kidney support maybe 3 months before I started the heavy metal detox supplement in efforts to prepare my kidneys to help detox. Food sensitivities can fluctuate a lot and the rate at which someone can reintroduce food sensitivities can depend on their efforts to heal their gut lining, support the immune system and other factors! I do eat eggs now. I don’t eat eggs every day but I tolerate them now after working to heal my gut!
@@bethanymcenaney thanks for the answer. it's just that my english is bad I didn't understand it right. I want to buy it but I can't find it on the site. do you always buy from this site?
Recommend using banish the brand for clearing acne scarring
So you never needed to use probiotics to heal your acne? I find it interesting that you never mentioned them because I’ve found that probiotics make my acne worse. Makes me think that I’ve been going at the approach and knowing there’s hope for other ways to heal acne besides the conventional advice
Hi! That’s correct. I was never on any probiotic during my main portion of healing when my acne cleared. I can’t remember exactly why my naturopathic didn’t recommend them for me, but sometimes they’re not for everyone! There was more to do be done with my actual gut lining that needed help, instead of the bacteria and microbes in my gut.
that ur crying clip hurt me . I know what it feel
I went to go look for the products but it says I need to log in, and it doesn’t give me the option to create an account. Could it be that i need a doctors approval or some sort?
Hi Cinthia! You might be right! You might need a practitioner to order it but I’ll double check that!
So like healing naturally take months? Please reply i am worried
Hi Yashal! Everyone is going to be different with how long it takes them, but yes it can take months if not a full year or more for some people.
@@bethanymcenaney i am faving benzoyl peroxide withdrawal covered up my every root cause but skin is in stabilization process it gives me severe depression that what of my skin doesn't heal on its own.. The derms and aesthetician gives chemical to apply and i don't want that either i don't know i am confused
I didnt understand in what type of doctor you went
I saw a Naturopath! So not a conventional medical doctor, but a naturopathic doctor!
What helped drain your lymph nodes?
Hi Sydney! There were a few things that I did! I started taking really hot epsom salt baths to work up a good sweat and help the body detox, but if you have an actual sauna near you that also would be great! I got a lymphatic massage done and would do lymphatic drainage massages on myself at home! There are some great guided lymphatic drainage videos here on TH-cam that I watched. Dry brushing also stimulates the lymphatic system so I did that as well! I really focused on just stimulating my lymphatic system through those methods since my lymph nodes had become stagnant! Hope that helps😊
Emos wouldn't agree with a heavy metal detox
I have a clean diet. I dont eat junk food and processed food and also packed food. I only eat what is made in home. I don't eat sugar and dairy. But I do eat home made curd ( I have my own cow). I have never had acne before in my life. I'm 21 btw. I drink one green tea and one spearmint tea a day. And I also use minimal skincare. But still I have some pustules that are painful. I try to keep my gut healthy and eat healthy fatty acids like a tablespoon of flaxseed a day, salad, drink 8 glasses of water a day and what not. But I still don't know what is it that I'm doing wrong. Please help me its so frustrating.🥲
Hormonal imbalance maybe ?
It might be lack of sleep,stress
@@adellekonrad7375 no I checked it
@@babyangelxoxo i guess....
But my sleep schedule is okay..however I don't know how to check stress levels...
@@myselfly4807 meditate 2 times a day it helps to reduce stress
But how did heavy metal ended up in you organism?
Hi! Heavy metals are found in soil, pesticides, food, water, vac*ines, paint, and a lot of other things. We can inhale these particles, drink/eat them, be injected with them, etc. Usually the problems come when there’s a buildup of these heavy metals and the levels are too high in your body. If your body has a hard time naturally detoxing them, that’s what can lead to symptoms. Hope that helps!
how long did it take for your acne to clear?
I did about 3-4 months of very intentional gut healing protocols and kidney support first, and then once I was able to start my heavy metal detox supplement my acne was completely gone in about 3 months but I started noticing it getting better within about a week of starting my heavy metal detox supplement!
Thanks for sharing your story, you are so beautiful
Thank you so much! That so sweet😊
Hi any recommendations for a naturopathic Dr. And where is the location pls .
Hi Vie! I saw a naturopath in Atlanta, GA at Longevity Health Center❤️
Did u change your diet by going into vegan or vegetarian eventually even after your skin has recovered?
No I didn’t! Currently I’m still gluten free and dairy free, and I just kind of watch my sugar intake!
@@bethanymcenaney my daughter is 18 and suffering from acne and eczema. She did similar tests on IgG food allergy, saliva on adrenal hormone and organic acids tests/metabolic markers in urine
I happened to come across your channel and found about the similar tests and supplements brand - Design for Health both of you are taking.
She is also allergy to gluten and dairy but is ok with red and white meats.
Hi Miki! First of all I’m so sorry your daughter is struggling! I know it can be such a hard and discouraging thing to go through. One thing I’d also mention is there is a difference between a food sensitivity test which is the IgG testing, and an actual food allergy test which is an IgE test that an allergist would conduct. It might be worth also doing a food allergy test and getting an IgE test done along with the IgG test she got done. I know my eczema will flare if I use poor quality topical products that are more toxic and not as clean. I love using the EWG website and products guide! They have a ton of research and data on ingredients and can tell you what brands are super clean and pass their standards!
What 3 tests did you take?
Hi Bella! I did a Urine analysis, thermography scan, and a bioenergetic test!
Plz clearly mention the products you used for acne please...thanks
Hi there! I didn’t use any topical products for my acne, but I did mention the supplements I took and the process I took to healing the acne! It was just all 100% healing from the inside out with nutrition and supplements that cleared it!
Ok ma'am thanks alot
Do naturopath’s accept health insurance?
I think some do! I think it just depends on the person/practice and your personal health insurance policies.
Now my situation is same
Hey Diana! I’m so sorry you’re struggling! Let me know if you have any specific questions about my journey and I’d be happy to answer any questions!😊
Who was your natropath?
I saw one of the naturopaths at Longevity Health Center in Atlanta!
I’m in California but think I would consider taking a flight to visit this place
@@Sara-im4ex Hey Sara! There might be some naturopaths in your area who use similar testing. One thing you could maybe do is google "bioenergetic testing near me" and see if there are any naturopaths or holistic practitioners who use it near you. I did a bioenergetic test, urine test and thermography test if that helps!
Hello! How much did you pay for all your tests/appointments for the naturopath? Can you give an approx number?
Our story is….well no-not our story exactly but like the way you FELT about your acne was/is EXACTLY how I feel about mine. I’ve looked into naturopaths but I’m like…. I can’t bite the bullet for the naturopath. I’m afraid to drop a bunch of money and have it not work. I’ve already spent money on a regular derm and it hasn’t helped.
Hey Valerie! I believe my initial testing (3 tests), consultation AND leaving the office with all my supplements was around $700. From there on I saw her about every 3 months in the beginning and I think follow up appointments were around $120/$150, not including any supplements I needed to restock. Obviously everyone’s office and naturopath will be different in cost. To me their offerings were way cheaper than I expected because I had spent $400 on just ONE food sensitivity test at a nutritionists office before I found my naturopath, so having all the answers, 3 tests and leaving with all the supplements, a plan and peace of mind was priceless for me personally! I had also spent a lot of money at allergists, pulmonologists, etc before finding a naturopath so I completely understand not wanting to spend more money! It’s a very hard position to be in. My acne was also just one part of many other symptoms I was facing like increased asthma, developing food sensitivities, hair loss, etc so I was desperate and willing to pay anything! Everyone’s situation is different but that’s about what my stuff cost to give you an estimate! Hope that helps!!❤️
@@bethanymcenaney thank you for the response! And wow I think I am experiencing some mild hair loss too. Okay, I’m going to do it!
❤❤ beautiful thank you
You’re welcome! And thank YOU😊
Any update on the acne scars?
Hi Bethany, thx for your video. I’m currently seeing a naturopath / functional medicine practitioner and I just had a question if that’s ok... you said your naturopath tested the supplements would work for you, and I was wondering how? Mine is prescribing all kinds of supplements for me and I don’t know if all are working for me. Was it a muscle test / or a blood test or a machine measuring the electric current type of thing ? Also, did she re-test your kidney function to check it was where it needed to be before giving the metal synergy, or was it that you just gave the kidney an appropriate amount of time on the kidney support supplement? Thx so much x
Hi Emma! Thanks for watching my video! I’m happy to answer questions😊 Regarding testing the supplements, my naturopath used a bioenergetic machine. The bioenergetic test was what found the heavy metals, food sensitivities, vitamin deficiencies, and it can find a lot more like parasites and viruses. Since that same machine can find a lot of what’s going on, it’s able to test what vitamins would work specifically for you. I’ve told a handful of people to maybe Google “bioenergetic testing near me” to see if they can find a naturopath or holistic practitioner near them that uses that if they’re interested! I don’t think we re-tested my kidneys (that was a urine test and I don’t remember doing it again), but I was on my kidney supplement for 3 months before I started the metal x-synergy! Let me know if you have any other questions!
Does diet clear acne ??
It absolutely can! Sugar and dairy are two of the top foods that can cause acne, but sometimes people have other food sensitivities that can cause acne! Another big cause of acne is hormone imbalance. For me I got some tests done and found that I had a lot of heavy metal toxins in my body which was causing my acne, but I change my diet a lot too. If you’re looking for a place to start on your acne journey I would recommend cutting out certain food groups one at a time and see if it makes a difference, or you could also get your hormones checked to see if there’s any imbalances there!
@@bethanymcenaneyhow long after changes come after following the diet ?
For me, it was about 6 months of true dedication to the diet changes. But for some people I’ve heard it’s maybe 2-3 months, and if your acne is really severe, or there’s other underlying issues going on like vitamin deficiencies it can take up to a year for your body to really heal.
@@bethanymcenaney can I eat green grapes ??
Plz tell me what food u have had ?
What's the name of the multivitamin?
Hey Crysta! It’s by the brand Pure Encapsulations, and it’s their O.N.E Multivitamin! You can go straight onto their website and purchase!
I wonder if vaccines cause heavy metal toxicity. I had to take some vaccines for my job and I’ve been breaking out way more than I normally do.
I actually think heavy metals are used in them but I’m not sure how much. I believe heavy metals are often times used as a binder in vaccines but I’m not 100% sure on that! Would definitely be something to look into though!!
I know a lot of women say vaccines tend to mess with their periods and hormones too so the breakouts could maybe be rated to a hormone imbalance as well?
@@bethanymcenaney yes I definitely think it did that . Causes estrogen dominance plus depleted me of some vitamins and minerals
Yeah that could definitely be part of it! I know I was very depleted of vitamins and minerals from my birth control I was on, because I didn’t know at the time that birth control depletes a lot of key vitamins and minerals as well!
It’s so interesting because I’ve been to a few naturopaths even an acne specialist naturopath and never had these types of tests just gut etc.
Followed strict diet and supplementation which kinda sorta helped but never ever healed!
Yeah that is interesting! I mean the gut can definitely cause issues with the skin like acne, eczema, etc, but yeah the bioenergetic test is what found the heavy metals in my system which ended up being the main cause of my acne! Once I started to detox my skin started to clear up! And then the thermography test was kind of like a body scan and you could see where my lymphatic system was really backed up near my face and neck, so those heavy metal toxins were stuck right near my face, causing the acne.
@@bethanymcenaney Thank you so much for the info! It’s so nice to hear another perspective besides stop dairy gluten and sugar which I have for years! 🙏🏽💗
@@bethanymcenaney Thank you so much for the info! It’s so nice to hear another perspective besides stop dairy gluten and sugar which I have for years! 🙏🏽💗
I agree! I had seen a lot of people who said gluten free dairy free cleared up their acne and I tried that for a little bit before I saw my naturopath and never saw any improvement so that’s when I figured there had to be something more going on!
I literally cry every time I see myself in the mirror because of acne🥲 I'm a school teacher and I'm really ashamed every time I'm facing my students in class. 🥲 Life sucks😂
