Re: [rosacea] Red (or Yellow?) LED Therapy

I tend to buy organic grape juice either red or white if I'm going somewhere. I find it
doens't affect my skin, tastes nice and I can pretend I'm drinking wine.

I tend to avoid all the really sugary alternatives as the next day my skin can be abit worse.

is not such a big thing for me to forgo, but I was just wondering about the non-alcoholic
versions since I'm not in it for the buzz so to speak. Thanks again.
