This response from Jason illustrates why he should be banned from
Usenet, or at least prosecuted for attempting to practice medicine
without a license. Not to mention the idiocy of going to a vitamin
store for "professional" advice. Sheesh.

As for Riz, there are blood tests that will show your vitamin status,
but it would take a doctor to administer them. Having dark circles
under your eyes, or having acne, are not typical symptoms of vitamin
deficiency. Acne can have multiple causes, especially at the age of
25. You might react badly to milk, or too much sugar in your diet, or
even iodized salt! In any case, acne can be treated -- I think the
drug is called Roaccutane in Europe. It's powerful stuff, with many
side-effects, but it does work wonders. I have no idea what might
cause your skin color to change, especially to become darker.
