3/25/2011 Front

Nothing too new, but doing better for the front. Front usually stays pretty clear for the most part.

As you can see, my 3/25/2011 pictures show great improvement. So, I mentioned that I was sick, and my skin always always always clears when I'm sick! Without a doubt, it always does. As mentioned before, I think it has to do with my avoiding offending foods. This month I received results from a blood test, and I found out that I have...

high reactions to:

• grapefruit
  
• tomatoes
  
• avocados (I used to eat these things right out of the shell)
  
• pumpkin
  
  moderate reactions to:
  • egg white
    
  • safflower oil
    
  • cola
    
  • kombu
    
  • wax/string beans
    

  Eggs and tomatoes have proven especially difficult to avoid. They are in so many foods, it's ridiculous! Since tomatoes are nightshade foods, I am also avoiding all nightshades, which include potatoes, all peppers, and eggplants. I hadn't eaten any of these foods for over a week before 3/25/2011, so I really have a strong belief that these foods are contributing to my outbreaks.
