Benzoyl peroxide alone can only do so much Often the reason we have persistent, inflammatory acne is because of an internal reaction I believe that certain foods exacerbate this reaction

Your body could also be having tiny flare ups to a food intolerance

If you're breaking out in the same spots it could be a food intolerance

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this Please know you can control your acne by determining what foods are safe for you to eat

Eczema and acne is a clear sign that you have a food intolerance

Yes it's definitely possible If it is persistent (over a long period of time) and cystic it is probably a food intolerance

The thing to remember is that all of these foods are person specific, so it will vary. For me, sweet potatoes and asparagus don't really cause issues. Broccoli is probably okay too for me. I'm sure...

It's a food intolerance hypersensitivity reaction Elimination diet would clear this

It really doesn't look bad at all Some zinc lotion (or just head and shoulders) in the shower, plus oral zinc, plus clean diet would clear it all up
