ACNE
Acne vulgaris is an inflammatory condition of the skin. Treatment is based on the type of acne, severity, and distribution of acne.
The Cause
The cause of acne is multi-factorial: Increased oil production, abnormal shedding of the hair follicle lining, bacterial overgrowth, and inflammation are all contributing factors. There is a wide spectrum of clinical disease ranging from mild whiteheads and blackheads to severe nodules and cysts.

Stay away from dairy products, chocolate, and stop whey protein. Check your protein supplement ingredients for whey.
-
Ensure your products are free of coconut oil, sulfates, and other oils.
-
Only use facial products, including make-up and face wash, that are labeled "non-comedogenic". This means they don't clog pores.
