I need some breakfast recommendations. I tend to make smoothies, eat GF toast with Coconut mana, turkey bacon, eggs and sometimes oat bran which I agree, is not the best. I tend to eat a HUGE breakfast b/c I workout from 5:45-7am and I'm starved afterward. I'm really struggling with restrictive diet.

Bp Makes My Red Marks Stay Longer?
Tootsler replied to kekamarie's topic in Hyperpigmentation - red/dark marks
I'm dabbing ACV on my red spots (actually, my entire face) 3x a day. I think it helps the red marks fade. I also have melasma (joy) and I think it's helping. The one other thing I am taking which may be helping with fading is Glutathione. -

Is There A Protein Shake That Does Not Cause Acne?
Tootsler replied to Mindwitch's topic in Diet & holistic health
I make smoothies with PlantFusion (http://plantfusion.net/) and it does not break me out. I mix it with water, flax seeds, banana, frozen berries and some coconut oil. -
I'm 42 and also thoroughly few up with mid cycle breakouts and PMS breakouts. I'm interested in Estro Sense. Thank you for posting this -- I will go research.

I have some Salicylic Acid that I dab on with a Q-tip approx 3x/day. It usually helps calm things down.

Post Your Anti-Picking Strategies!
Tootsler replied to princessdaphne's topic in Emotional and psychological effects of acne
I agree with all of the above. However, I have a question -- what if you have a white head? Do you literally not pick or poke at all.... just let it fade? I have never been able to do that. I would love to hear success stories from people that have walked around with a whitehead and not popped it. Sometimes I can apply ACV and it will calm down but I usually end up popping it. What do you guys do? -
I would love to hear from others who try this... Who is willing to try?

does peanut butter cuase acne for you?
Tootsler replied to dragon10's topic in Diet & holistic health
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE peanut butter and almond butter. Whenever I eat them, I get cysts on my jaw line within 24 hours. I'm so bummed & hoping that I outgrow this. -
I had my gallbladder removed when I was 21 (I'm now 42). It was the most painful experience of my life. I'd prefer childbirth over a gallbladder attack or surgery any day. It's always puzzled me that I had gall stones & surgery at such a young age. I've always eaten well, exercised daily, drank water etc. I still wonder about the possibility of some sort of connection with my acne. And now that it's many years later, I would like to know how well my liver is functioning. I have had blood wor

Please let me know if anyone else tries this. I live in the San Francisco area and the closest place I could found that sells this is in Union City (far away). Of course, if it really helps, I will drive any distance.

Your acne doesn't look bad -- I can hardly see any pimples whatsoever.

Would you mind asking your friend's mom where to buy these seeds or if we can get a photo of the package? Ive looked online even in some Indian-only grocery sites and cannot find these seeds. Thank you!!!

I eat a lot of quinoa, oat bran and brown rice. I have tons of acne, and horrible gas. I'm a 42 year old female and have struggled with acne since my teenage years. Suffice to say, I'm fed up. I'm considering cutting out grains (along with the other things I have already removed from my diet such as dairy, wheat, sugar, caffeine). Two questions: -- Is it possible actually test one's "gut" to see if in fact it's unhealthy or in need of re-building and probiotics etc? It would be very helpful t

I suggest scheduling a derm appointment for the morning one day prior to your wedding. If there is anything active, s/he can give you cortisone shots. I just got some a couple weeks ago. Boy, I wish I could administer them at home. Just miraculous.
