This made me nauseous. I used Proactiv for a decade. I have two teens now and a 30 year old. Proactiv has been in my home for my whole adult life. My son has acne and we tried all the products to no avail. I now have him using a product that is not designed to treat acne but it is working beautifully. I have had ITP as a child and Breast Cancer as an adult along with Cardiac Arrest seemingly from one of the cancer meds. This all makes me so sick. My eldest now lives in A place where she gets her meat from local hunters and vegetables locally grown. Her health is so much better. I am throwing out right now all the other acne crap that I have had sitting in my home evidently poisoning me and my children. I also signed up to Valisure labs to get their newsletter. Thank you Dr. Malone.
There are so many legs to this report. First, most generics now consumed by Americans come from China and India who are low cost producers and there are major quality control issues some of which have been documented by the FDA, but there has been no major effort to shut down and stop contaminated drugs from coming into the US from marginal suppliers. When Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State, the FDA was moving to shut down an India producer and she stopped the effort.
Valisure documented the Zantac debacle. My friend died of stomach cancer as well as his son.
I was prescribed a generic antibiotic from India that caused side effects. My research of the FDA inspection reports showed the manufacturer in India was not following GMP's. Destroying records and more. Should have been shut down.
President Trump championed that Kodak should start producing generics in this country and he was deeply criticized for his efforts. Now TrumpRX is supporting the distribution of these generics from China and India. Selling directly to the patient and bypassing the community physician and pharmacist in the process. Monitoring of side effects will be absent. Will reduce the reporting of ADR's to the FDA. Lilly and others are selling directly to patients and by passing the community physician and pharmacist. Argument is it will reduce drug costs, but surveillance will disappear. Reports of GLP1 side effects keep climbing. It will now cause vertical integration from production to consumption of RX drugs to be controlled by Big Pharma. Our Congressman will not speak out on the issue because they stay in office by being funded by Big Pharma and other entities that control the regulatory process. That is why they stay silent on the autism issue.
The American Academy of Dermatologists should be front and center in sounding the alarm about Benzene contamination. They are not. They are not sounding the alarm that most of the sun blocking chemicals in sunscreens have never been tested for absence of carcinogenic properties. They do continually pump out warnings that Vitamin D can be harmful. It is not. They do prescribe Vitamin D2 which is poorly metabolized. They do not encourage studies that measure the blood value of D versus the risk of developing melanoma. Higher the blood value of D the lower the risk.
The only bright spot is that Mary Kaye produces a line of cosmetic products that address these issues. My Gail sold the products and at 80 years old her facial appearance was radiant.
Thank you Dr. Malone for another provocative article that has deep meaning and needs to be addressed. What say you Congressman. Big Pharma got your tongue?
And here I thought (soon-to-be-former) Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. was monitoring the FDA during his tenure as Chairman of the Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee. What a surprise!
Thank you Dr. Malone for another great article. It’s frightening to realize the scope of chemicals everywhere and we wonder why we are sick all the time!
Just read/saw something that shows that Dawn dishwashing liquid (the one touted for use to clean all water fowl of toxic oil spillage), is full of carcinogens like blue dye. Dumb me, I bought 3 pack when it was on sale at Costco. Duhh.
"with benzoyl peroxide" I can remember hearing that probably on a tv commercial. We were fortunate to not have acne. My dad said it was due to him putting brewers yeast in our milk (yukk) I do have eczema and want to try HOCl. I'm also interested in its use for rosacea. Would your product for acne work for that as well?
Great article. Benzene is in a lot of products, last I checked, many top sunscreens still have it in their formulas. I’ve always believed that it accounts for a large number of the basal/squamous cell diagnoses.
Another case of regulatory incompetence and/or corruption. Although, citing Rosa DeLauro - the purple haired harridan from CT - doesn't prove much although a minor criticism of this damning indictment of the deep state clowns who preside over our food and drug safety.
Regarding acne, I remember years ago when I sometimes assisted the pharmacists as a drug store clerk being surprised by how many prescriptions were written for tetracycline for acne. Now, decades later, the once valuable antibiotic is virtually useless. Always wondered about that.
Hopefully Makary's replacement at the FDA won't buckle under to industry pressure. If you knowingly sell a product with many times the FDA limit for a harmful chemical, you are a criminal. Sorry, there's no getting around that and the officers who did so need to serve jail time.
I have been using HOCI, sprayed directly on my eye that had a stye that wasn't healing. I spray it a few times a day as well as DMSO gel applied directly on the stye. It is slowly healing, patience seems to be important as most are wanting fast results. Not that there can't be quick results too. We used the disinfectant HOCI instead of bleach for sanitizing our under sink reverse osmosis. I called the Curitiva Bay number, and talked with a rep., he was interested, patient and not trying to sell me anything. I have used the animal solution for cleaning my cats ears and chin acne. Great product that I feel good using! (p.s. I went to the doc, what a joke. Antibiotic gel for the eye that even the doctor poo-pooed.)
As repeated several times here, I am now in my early 70's. I used and had my boys use a variety of products that had Benzoyl Peroxide in it. Proactive was one. Think about that - we would have been using that particular product at least since the 1980's when I was a young woman.
I have found CO3 to be a great skin product. Those occasional bumps that crop up just disappear overnight. Seems counterintuitive as the CO3 is greasy. Yes, you can get an occasional zit even into your twilight years. Go figure.
Yesterday pm, I read Chapter 13 in Sonia Elijah's new book (reviewed on this Substack), so I am just past a refresh on Kevin McKernan's findings of plasmid DNA contamination in the COVID jab vials, and ribosomal frame-shifting. The dismissal of such concerns amounts to more than mere regulatory negligence as far as I am concerned.
In the wake of RFK's talks about artificial dyes and their toxicities, I have noted that my aftershave lists Yellow No. 5 as an ingredient. I have wondered if such toxicity applies to topical application. Many aftershaves incorporate coloring of one sort or another; perhaps I should seek out a clear alternative (?)

Great article.
When I worked as a gas station regulator in the 90’s in CT, the benzene action level in drinking water was 1 part per billion. Hmmm.
A Midwestern Doctor on Substack touts DMSO as a safe, FDA-torpedoed medical Duct Tape - good for skin ailments.

Great article! Now do Benadryl. After taking it, I experienced a blackout. My doctor said it was a known complication. Why is it still being sold?!

Might ask about Ivermectin cream for rosacea.

The article states that HOCl degrades to saline. Salt is NaCl. Where does the Na come from in the degradation process?
BTW, I really appreciate the article. I value Dr Malone's expertise and warnings.
For the last several days, audio play for regular articles stops after 5 seconds and I cannot find a fix. Any suggestions?

So course Big Pharma owns the FDA and JEW Elites Zionist own or control BIG PHARMA
