I think there might be something to this. It just doesn't make any sense to me how anyone could simply "outgrow" a harsh skin reaction like acne. However, I have heard that allergic reactions take about 7 years to "pass".

So maybe it is simply an allergic reaction to wheat/dairy/sugar.

take a look at the nutritional forum

one of the most common reactions to food sensitivities (not necessarily an allergy) are skin conditions (including acne) and these can happen in under a day if you are sensitive enough

a good start would be to cut out dairy and wheat since these seem to be the two biggest sensitivities for many acne sufferers

the derms who say you will "outgrow" it are just after your $$$, same with the pharmaceuticals

don't wait that long. you can prevent it by eating foods that do not contain soya. it has high contents on estrogen mimicking molecules that causes overactivity of your sebaceous glands thus too much oil is produced. you can use ionic silver to keep bacteria from infecting it.
