Copperoverload is on a distinguished road
Skip the Aloe and MSM on face

I found something that works much better............

Nivea in the blue screw top container........epsom salt is what makes it work....Most of us need extra magnesium..

Also take the extra

Vitamin C 2,000 to 3,000 mgs daily - use emergen C packets 3 times a day -
Zinc - 50 mg
Calcium and Vitamin D and Magnesium
Good Multi Vitamin with no Copper - have to get prenatal - regular vitamins have copper in them......
I just started on DIM because I read that it helps to normalize estrogen levels.

cut down on high copper foods - eat organic everything- wash all produce really well. (they use copper as a fungicide for vegetables, fruits and grains.) Only buy organic hormone free meat, eggs, and dairy.

Get off the Pill -use condoms - look on the ingredients - copper is listed as an ingredient in the pill.

You may want to try some progesterone cream to reduce the estrogen in your body - I didn't.

If you want immediate results to "lighten" the dark patches - buy some food grade Hydrogen Perioxide from the health food store - just be careful - you have to dilute it big time - it is 35%, so you need to dilute it to 3% - which means you have to add a lot of water and just a little hydrogen Peroxide. Don't use regular Hydrogen Peroxide because it has stabilizers in it so it doesn't work as well.

My Melasma is barely visable and I haven't used sunscreen in months........
