Glycemic Index Help
Does diet REALLY affect acne?
First of all, let me say that I have found not a single website or study that goes beyond simply stating that "acne and diet are unrelated." Yet, I can find a million websites that go into details with M.D. studies that claim that the two ARE related. Why is this? You guys may say that the only things that affect acne are an imbalance of hormones. Correct me if I am wrong, but eating a diet full of high glycemic-index foods (such as white potatoes, white rice, etc) gives a sharp increase in your insulin levels. In turn, an increase in your insulin levels throws your hormones out of whack. That is conclusive of diet, hormonal activity and acne being related

- It depends on what you eat, if you eat a lot of grease you will get acne because the grease comes out of your pores which causes acne
