Answer 2

Yes it does! Some people experience darkening of the skin, or yellowing. Changed coloring in the whites of your eyes ( slightly red, or possible yellow). Break outs on your skin, face, back , shoulders, like acne. And for women hair breaking off, or falling out, getting thin. One main reason for this is because the body is being constantly drained of protein and vitamin when we dialyze, so that causes us to have anemia, and to be depleted of zinc. Ask for some dialyvite vitamins with zinc to improve this.
