saskiadarvey 0 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Alcohol has flared my acne up in the morning, but thats more likely due to dehyrdation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WackyJacki 0 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I think as long as your drinking moderately and keeping yourself well hydrated, it shouldn't affect it. Keep in mind though that heavy drinking affects your whole body, skin being the least of your worries.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Akira Share Posted March 27, 2006 i think there is some correlation, think of candida.Alcohol has yeast in it, which the candida will say "Ummm...yes i will feast upon the yeast" and that would result in more acne.Im pretty sure it has some effect on me, if i drink heavily i find my skin is worse in the morning, but i've found a little trick to combat it.If your drinking at home, for every beer you have, have a glass of water, i think this will help, and i base this on no medical evidence whatsoever.

I work in a brewery and I use the yeast all the time. I think its safe to say that the yeast is over 99% dissipated in drinking alcohol, in other words, theres no yeast in drinking alcohol.

R.S. 3 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Yeah, alcohol in beer is created from the reaction yeast and sugar have. And I don't think you need to worry about yeast if you don't have candida as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
