thunder61 0 Posted October 15, 2006 Since Grade 10 I have had severe Ance and Bacne. I've always wondered why I got it and my younger brother had NONE! Then 2 months ago it clicked. He never drank milk! Always orange juice. So I stopped drinking milk. It started clearing up, No new acne started forming anywhere Then I had pizza a week later, next thing I know I'm feeling so itchy! I knew they were coming. Next thing I do is STOP having any DAIRY! Any food with dairy in it! Now 2 months later. I'm all clear except the light brown spots. With time they will go away. You can use any soap you like, doesnt make a difference. I recommend using liquid soap with vitamen E & Aloe Vera. Place the soap on a cloth and rub the cloth together until you get the foam then apply; leave it on for a atleast 2-3 minutes then rinse. Use warm or cool water; NOT hot, you dont want to irratate the skin. Here is a dairy list: Milk Pizza Panzerotto Mushed Potatos Cake French toast Pancakes Cheese Cream Etc. I'm sure you get the idea by now. A few things that cause facial acne are jams that are Iodinized. Blueberrys are known to Cause acne beside the face. Dairy causes acne around the nose. This is from my experience. Why Dairy causes acne? Iodine in milk(Iodinized Milk) causes acne: http://www.dairyreporter.com/news/ng.asp?i...-dairy-products I'm not telling you to decrease your intake, I tried decreasing it. Did nothing! So I stop having any at all! Its hard at first, I have had dreams about drinking milk Stop wasting your money on treatments that wont do anything! Enjoy!

jamesw 0 Posted October 15, 2006 Many people have dairy allergies. It makes sense. To tell you the truth, red meat/dairy/excesses of wheat and grains are not good for you in the first place, not to mention the large number of people who are allergic to them unknowingly.

thunder61 0 Posted October 15, 2006 One thing I meant to ask. Does anyone know of a regiment to get rid of the light brown spots? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lalalala0112 1 Posted October 16, 2006 All you gotta do is wait (they take about 4 months) Don't worry, as long as you don't get any acne, i'm sure those 4 months wont be so bad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReiseReise 0 Posted October 19, 2006 I'm seriously considering cutting out all dairy products, it will be unbelieveble difficult because I am massively reliant on dairy products in my diet, probably too much and maybe thats why I have acne and NOBODY else in my family does. I will research this myself but if anyone can provide some links for food products that contain dairy products I would be grateful, I know I should be able to work this out for myself but it often throws up food you never ever consider dairy to be in. Thunder please let me know how its going and have you tried using Soya Milk? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thunder61 0 Posted October 26, 2006 My apologies for the late reply. Any milk that comes from the cow is cosidered 'Dairy'. Soya milk(Soy milk) is fine because its made from beans. Soy Milk > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soy_milk Today I had a glass of milk. Weird thing about it; I had the gag effect, then threw up the milk. Now my body doesnt even want it period. I would recommend eating fish so you dont have a thyroid problem(deficiency in iodine). Were not allergic to iodine by itself; just when its mixed with milk.

felk 0 Posted October 28, 2006 I'd be fine cutting out dairy (and I agree it could have an effect, as dairy is linked with insulin resistance, something that is proven to worsen acne) but i supplement with whey protein for building muscle - would this fall under "dairy"?

Purified 1 Posted October 28, 2006 Too bad... I don't eat a lot of dairy in the first place. I rarely EVER drink milk, which is why I'm so damn short. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
