Acne.org Products
I've been on the regimen for just over 1 year, and it has been good to me more or less, except I've ruined a lot of clothes and bed linen by bleaching them.
One of the weird places I used to get acne is my scalp, but it's been gone for some time now, as a result of my low carb diet I believe. Based on that I decided I want to stop the regimen to see if I am fine without now that I don't eat carbs.
So far in one month, I'm not. My nose is blackhead city and I have got several zits in my old trouble areas but it also coincided with the first time i've cheated with carbs in a long time.
Does anyone have any experience coming off the regimen? Did you have the same problem, and is it temporary?
cold turkey 1.5 months ago, and I felt I was fine for the first couple weeks. I should have weaned myself off it in hindsight.
The other thing is I have been doing ketogenic diet for about 4 months now, and I ate a huge carb meal 2 weeks ago, and since then I've broken out on my face, so I really don't know if this the result. Usually when I massage my scalp I will find really bad painful cysts and acne especially around my crown, but my head has been so clear, and i haven't changed a single thing but my diet.
So my opinion its one of 3 things
1) a natural reaction to coming off BP and my face will settle
2) sudden in take of carbs (I feel I am very wheat allergic based on breakouts and redness following certain meals like pasta)
3) I still have bad acne without BP and need to go back on
I'm hoping its 1 or 2. I'm going to stay off until mid november and if it doesnt get better in the next few weeks I'll go back to BP. I don't like the idea of being reliant on it but it did work for me, which is better than having no solution
