Alright so I've been waiting like 3 months before posting this thread because of fear that it might stop working or something but I have recently tried something that has made my acne go away and i'm pretty confident that this is what has cured me

So before I begin let me tell you that I had been struggling with acne for about... 7 years. In those years i've tried EVERYTHING from not eating certain foods, to starving myself, to creams, to taking vitamins and supplements. Almost everything.

But one day I head someone talk about how drinking water with your foods dilutes the acids in your stomach that break down food. So I reflected upon myself and realized that I have always been a heavy water drinker with my meals. Sometimes I would watch my friends eat food without drinking a sip of water and I would ask them how that was possible. (this particular friend happens to have no acne but forget about that for now)

Anyways so I tried this... I began to eat food with NO WATER and then wait 2 hours and drink like 2 glasses of water...then wait 2 hours again before my next meal. At first I was still following a diet with no chocolate, no cheese, (and other things that people say cause acne) But after i started getting results from my experiment I started eating those foods too and I have not gotten acne since!

THERE is one thing i'm still avoiding and that is milk. My theory is that it isn't the hormones in milk that might cause acne but the fact that milk IS like drinking liquid and eating food at the same time (since it is so rich in nutrients) I also figured that maybe the reason milk might be associated with acne is cause milk is almost always taken with food. (like cereal, cake etc.) But, I still have not tried drinking milk cause i'm almost sure that is an irritant of acne from my past experiments.

Anyways I'm sure you guys will tear apart my theory but I would REALLY like some of you to try it for at least a month and report back on your findings. It is definitely working for me.

and yes it is hard and weird not to drink water with your meals but... you get used to it.

thanks for your time and I hope.. I really hope this is what is helping me and more than anything I hope it helps other people.

P.S I was at my aunts house the other day and she made a full course meal of shrimp based plates. I was terrified cause I was assured shelfish irritate acne..but I couldn't say no cause I was a guest at their house and it was someone's birthday. So I ate every course fearing the consequences of my meal and the next few days... NOTHING. No acne in sight. (again I didn't drink water with my meal)

I recently got a bad breakout 2 weeks before an event where I was going to be in front of a lot of people so I got really desperate and tried the following diet that cleared me up fairly quickly.

First I dropped dairy and gluten (bread etc.) and sugary stuff

My diet consisted of ONLY the following. (and i know it may not be healthy but it cleared me up fast and I was desperate)

-Eggs
-Chicken
-Vegetables (although I didn't have that many in my fridge
-Almonds
-Water (in the morning with metamucil fiber)
- BEANS (ALTHOUGH I LATER DROPPED THIS CAUSE I READ IT MAKES THE ACID LEVELS IN YOUR BODY HIGH)

In terms of supplements I started taking the following
-Zinc 30 (MG)
-Water with Metamucil Fiber in the morning
-OCCASIONALLY Omega 3 Pills (like every other day)
-OCCASIONALLY B-12 Pills (probably even less than the Omega Pills

ALSO all of this coincided with me running out of facewash.. so I was just washing my face with water in the shower.... NO SOAP for this whole thing

So after like a week I went to see a dermatologist (it just so happen that there was a local discount on amazon so I bought an appointment)

The derm told me it was good that I was starting zinc but she also told me to avoid IODIDE! (Which i had never heard of before)

So after this visit and a facial I stopped putting salt in my eggs and chicken and .... u have no idea how difficult this is... when all you've been eating is chicken and eggs...

anyways so after like 2 weeks of this horrible diet...(it really is horrible and depressing) ((I LOST 13lbs!!!) my face cleared up! No more acne!!! Yes, the scars were still healing but there was nothing new... things were subsiding.

So my event came and I thought... "as soon as this event is over.. i'ma get some subway"

The day after in the morning i got a footlong Oven Roasted Chicken with Sweet Onion Sauce and Honey Oat Bread...then after that I went to Carl's Jr. and got a Teriyaki Burger... The next day i also got Subway again (hey buy one get one free before 9am? hell yeahh) THen i bought TWO Teriyaki Burgers and ate those. (The reason I was eating like this was cause I realized I had lost so much weight that I looked very unhealthy..so I was trying to put it back)

Sure enough new acne started to form....

SO more recently I bought PROBIOTICS and I want to buy Chlorella (haven't 'had time)...  Right now I stopped eating out again... going back to my chicken, veggies, almond and eggs diet... Let's see if i can heal myself again. (Although my mom has a box of Honey Bunches of Oats that I cannot stop eating!!) ((NO milk)) but still... i can't help myself!


PS I almost forgot. I also started looking at the sky more often.. (or being outside) under shade of course...but still looking at the sky. Read something about how the day light going through our eyes tells our bodies to produce something that is good... (i don't know the technicalities) but I now keep the window in my room open so I could see outside and so natural light will come in.

oh and my mom had this cream that I started using at the same time too for my moisturizer (says it has collagen for those that can't speak spanish) http://www.amazon.co...35926257&sr=1-4
