It can happen to me within hours as well from corn or wheat. Sounds like dairy is your culprit.

If the antibiotics work why not opt for natural antibiotics once you have to go off them? Coconut oil and oil of oregano are two great ones but there are tons of others.

it's such a dilemma when you're breaking out on probiotics :/ i've had digestion problems ever since i was young and can trace that back to multiple courses of antibiotics. i just know that my gut is ...

This thread is really interesting and has inspired me to try a dietary approach to curing acne. I'm fairly sure I'm low on 'good bacteria' and could possibly have candida, I exhibit many of the sympto...

Did not wait out the initial breakout. Took probiotics for three days and contiuned breaking out extremely bad for the week following. The probiotics I took were coated to reach the small intestine, w...

Great resources! Both of those sites have tons of interesting information.

I can attest to alcohol at first seeming like it helped your skin and then suffering CRAZY breakouts in the few days following. I hadn't actually drank alcohol in a year until a week ago. I woke up th...

Breaking out from apple cider vinegar is normal. It kills off bad yeast in your intestinal tract and many people with acne have a huge overgrowth of yeast. I can't say how long it will take to subside...

Could this just be an initial breakout?   Yeah, most definately an inital breakout. I took the supplements for about a week and I swear my face has NEVER looked that bad in my life. Even after ...

Hey everyone! Like most of us here I pick at my skin and it is a horrible habit to have! I create scabs out of nothing but even worse when I do have pimples I create huge scabs that take weeks to heal...

Just wanted to add to the thread and say that I'm also on a gut healing diet and think leaky gut is one of the main causes for acne too. I can eat most things except anything with corn or wheat withou...

Gluten is one of the main causes of my acne and I would have never guessed it. You owe it to yourself to do gluten free for a few weeks and see if it helps your skin. If it dosen't then you know you h...

My acne is also caused by gluten. Gluten, corn and sugar are my three big triggers. If I avoid them I stay clear too! Glad to hear you found your answer, tea tree oil is great stuff too. Strange that ...

Anyone?   Yeah that is what the bumps on my chin look like. The plain yoghurt won't seem to quite get rid of the ones that are still left so I bought nizoral shampoo. I'll let you know how it g...

Just wanted to post on this thread and say I was suffering from these little white bumps all over my chin. I wondered if they were closed comedones, scars, or a fungus/bacteria issue because nothing I...

If I were you I wouldn't go off the pill at this time because like you said, for many people their skin gets worse while their hormones readjust. I don't know too much about the hormone side of acne b...

Hmm, maybe the problem lies within your liver then? If you have no direct cause maybe your liver is simply overburdened and can't eliminate the excess hormones? You are doing alot of great things fo...

Sorry to hear that Spiorda, I know how it feels to get clear skin only to have it get bad again. Seriously frustrating. Reading your post, have you considered that you have a allergy to dairy, caffi...

Have you tried cutting all sugar and taking antifungals like coconut oil? Taking probiotics? You could also try cutting all gluten and seeing if that makes a difference. Diet does make a huge differen...

I have this as well and also wondered if it was scars. When I started taking probiotics all the bumps quickly receded, but unfortunately probiotics broke out the rest of my face really badly. My guess...

I just saw a huge sale on lemons at the grocery store so I'm going to try this as well. If anything it is really good for your body so it should be good for the skin too! I recommend not buying the pr...

Bliss Balls: Ingredients: -Handful of rasins chopped (or any dried fruit) -Handful of unsweetened coconut flakes -Tablespoon of honey (or maple syrup, agave.. etc) -Handful of almond flour (or a...

Sorry to hear this happened to others as well but good to know. I'm still trying to figure out why. My face is clearing up now thankfully. From three probiotic supplements I got around 50 little pimpl...

Interesting.. sorry to hear it made you breakout. :[ I wonder if it was the dairy or probiotics? I've been wanting to try making fermented vegetables but I'm going to hold off for a bit until this pro...
