GLYCOBALM is made with a complex gathered from what the snail Helix Aspersa Müller leaves on it's wondering paths and uses to regenerate his own shell and skin whenever damaged.

Laboratory studies have shown that the snail's slime has a powerful antibiotic action on different types of bacteria commonly found in human skin infections, such as Escherichia Coli, Staphylococcus Aureus, Pseudomona Aeruginosa and Propionibacterium Acnes.

Pharmaceutical antibiotics versus natural antibiotics

Pharmaceutical antibiotics are frequently used to reduce the number of bacteria but they often lead to bacterial resistance.

Some strains of bacteria mutate and become resistant to known pharmaceutical antibiotics. Bacteria, like all life forms, follow the simple rules of natural selection. Genetic changes that help an organism survive and reproduce in a challenging environment will be passed down to its progeny and thus become more prevalent. Bacteria cells can reproduce every 20 minutes; therefore, genetic change is very quick for them. Since even the most common bacteria become resistant to antibiotics within 2 to 3 months, acne sufferers face repeated trips to the dermatologist for new antibiotic prescriptions. Darwinism, or "survival of the fittest," has created micro-organisms which cannot be killed by normal antibiotics. By using GLYCOBALM now to guard against resistant bacteria you will be able to use pharmaceutical antibiotics latter if you have to face emergency situations.

Studies published by several dermatologists have revealed that acne-causing bacteria, called Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes), have developed strains that resist treatment by both systemic and topical forms of erythromycin, the active ingredient in many prescription acne medications.

Other studies have shown that at least one out of four acne patients have some strains of P. acnes which are resistant to tetracycline, erythromycin and clindamycin and are less sensitive to minocycline and doxycycline than in the past. The clinical significance is not entirely clear in those who have small numbers of resistant strains, but can be associated with treatment failure in those with high numbers of resistant P. acnes.

The current situation of antibiotic resistant bacteria is creating alarm throughout the medical community. The over-prescription of antibiotics and people not taking the full recommended dosage, has created some super bacteria that are quite deadly because they are resistant to antibiotics. A good example is the new form of pneumonia that usually ends with infected people being placed in an Intensive Care Unit.

So what do we do now? One thing we can do is to look at how humans and other organisms ward off infections. The answer for many of humans infectious problems may lie with antimicrobial peptide antibiotics which have been found to be produced by all living animals tested to date.

This includes frogs (Journal of Peptide Research - Amphibians, The antibiotic and anticancer active aurein peptides from the Australian Bell Frogs) cows, fish ( Characterization of a Fish Antimicrobial Peptide), pigs Natural antibiotics help aid swine health and food safety, insects Antimicrobial peptides in insects), snails, snakes, birds and plants. And they are produced by many different tissues and organs of the body, including our skin.

Their natural antibiotic action destroys the pathogens present on the surface of the skin and in the skin pores and acts like a barrier between compromised skin surfaces and the environment.

Pathogens such as bacteria and viruses enter the body through breaks in your skin, or when they find a rich environment for their development such as in clogged and broken sebaceuos glands within the hair follicles (acne infections). As they gain access to the blood stream they cause an increased immune system reaction. This activity interrupts the repair and healing process of skin that has been damaged, and interfere the normal lay down of your skin cells. Additionally, we see evidence of erythema (redness) around the affected site, as well as some superficial edema (swelling) and an excited production and lay down of collagen.

The human immune response is a two-pronged attack. Innate immunity identifies infectious agents by their pattern or structure, and mounts a broad, rapid response. Phagocytic cells (such as neutrophils and macrophages) and natural killer cells are released to fight the infection. A second form of immune response, adaptive (or acquired) immunity, takes several days to gear up its more targeted attack. Adaptive immunity recognizes previous contact with a specific microbe and directs its defense against that specific invader with antibodies and T-cells. Because many infections spread quickly, a fully functioning innate response is crucial to the health of an infected individual.

The snail slime contains specific peptides with anti-microbial properties, that act as natural antibiotics. These small portions of a protein provide the body’s first line of defense against invading bacteria and keep fast-moving infections in check. They also signal the immune system to mount a full-blown attack.

The natural antibiotics in the snail slime have continued to be effective in killing bacteria that attacks the skin of the snail (similar to the human skin) for tens of thousands of years.

By blocking the microbial pathway to the blood stream, the snail's secretions allow your immune system to heal the damage in an environment similar to that in which a broken bone heals inside your body.

GLYCOBALM™ also contains in a natural bio-available form, the most valued skin-care-ingredients, the cosmetic and dermatology industry has thrived to combine to reduce acne scars or erase marks and restore a healthy and beautiful skin.

They are biological enzymes, glycosaminoglycans, cooper peptides and glycoproteins in one complex bioavailable compound. And address all the factors involved in acne inflammation and acne scars and skin blemishes. Now, in one unique balanced complex, combined by nature's wisdom itself.

GLYCOBALM™ acts as an exfoliant eliminating dead cells, destroys pathogens, heals and regenerates damaged tissue. It nourishes your skin and protects it from free radicals. Improves the skin's elasticity, and leaves it silky soft and soothed.

Once inside the follicle the bio-available compound in GLYCOBALM will stimulate the formation of new elastic cells, collagen and pigment, filling in scar cavities. It will also shrink and replace the old fibrous collagen formed to repair damaged tissues. Soon new 'invisible' hair, known as lanugo, will come through the restored hair follicles in those areas. It will also "pump" up the cells and the "ground substances" in the skin. That also reduces wrinkles on the surface of the skin.

The secret of GLYCOBALM™ is not only that it provides the normal ingredients which may be deficient in the skin, but also restores the skin renewal process by stimulating the germinal cells. The result is a healthier appearance of the skin with more thickness, a normal skin color, normal skin texture and normal skin tissue turgor.

What our customers say: "I am 27 years old and last year I started to get severe acne on my face and neck. I went to a dermatologist and they gave me Retin A and a few other products which only made my face worse. Being extremely desperate since I am getting married next year, I want an outdoor wedding and could not imagine being outside in the sunlight and having everyone see the flaws. I put in a search on the web and it pointed me to this website. I bought this product and have been using it for about 6 weeks now. I saw results within the first week. I feel like I have found a miracle cure. This is the best product I have ever used. Thank you so much!!!"

GLYCOBALM for Acne Treatment
A gentle yet powerful solution for acne breakouts and even stubborn acne cysts that have not been amenable to other treatments

This acne cream yields what no other natural acne product does for recurrent stubborn acne and acne cysts because of the synergistic benefit of combining our biological serum with the most potent botanicals:

a) Inca Inchi Oil the richest vegetable oil in Omega-3 fatty acids. A powerful anti-inflammatory and with the ability to correct the deficit of linoleic acid in hair follicles which is a trigger of immoderate inflammatory reactions from our immune system. The oil is also a factor that reduces sebum output;

b) Helix Aspersa Müller Glycoconjugates, the miraculous serum, from a living creature with skin similar to human skin who never suffers from skin infections and acts as an effective adaptogen, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, trigger of skin repair and skin regeneration, and enzyme dissolver of blocked pores;

c) Licorice Root Extract (*) an antimicrobial with potent activity against acne bacteria, anti-inflammatory, anti-irritant, antioxidant, and an inhibitor of sebum production;

d) Alpine Willow herb extract (Epilobium Fleischeri) a botanical source of keratolytic salicylic acid in a natural form, and an antimicrobial;

e) Essential oil from the roots of Coleus Forskohlii with strong antimicrobial activity and a strong medicinal smell that you might not appreciate for about 20 minutes until it fades away.

The smell is a small price you pay for an "essential" component of BIOSKINFORTE for it activates many of your more than 10 million olfactory receptor neurones. But its nothing = "nada" when compared to the value you get: the strongest remedy that effectively heals and contains acne breakouts without any side effects on your body or skin. You always have the choice to behave as if you were a warrior and just use the product without previously messing with your nose inside the jar.

f) Hyaluronic Acid a glycosaminoglycan (also present in the snail serum) that deeply moisturizes the skin and restores the capacity of the skin to hold in water;

g) An extract from the fruit of black pepper which enhances the penetration of the active ingredients.

Apply a little of this acne cream twice a day on all the area affected by acne cysts or stubborn pimples (whole face, chest or back).
