Answers:
i've dealt with acne since i was 10, and now i'm 20 and i still have it!.
i'm majoring in nutrition in college, and i've learned a lot about how food effects your body!. the more natural foods that you eat the better it is for all parts of your body!.

just stick to fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, leaner meats, and whole grains!.


stay away from packaged foods like chips, candy, soda, or frozen dinners/food!. frozen vegetables/fruits are ok if they dont add anything!.

start reading the ingrediants on the labels!.

a safe bet is that if it comes in a bag or box, especially a brightly colored one, it's probably not good for you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Have you tried cream from your Doctor for the acne!?
I have PCOS and a major symptom for me was a lot of acne!. My Doctor put me on various creams until we found one that worked for me (PanOxyl, it's called!. I now believe you can buy it over-the-counter, at chemists)!.

Avoid processed foods!. Make everything fresh!.
Foods that are in cardboard boxes or plastic bags are likely to have huge amounts of sugar and salts in it, not to mention additives!.

Eat fresh foods, that doesn't mean eating nothing but fruit and vegetables!. It means spending that little bit extra (£) and spending a little longer in the kitchen, but getting the correct nutrients which are 'natural'!.

Although you shouldn't cut out on sugars completely, as our body does need sugar, salt and fat, you should monitor how much of it you eat!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You're 14, stop using products that clear acne, they can only dry and damage your skin!.

It is perfectly normal to go through a period of a few years with heavy acne!. I've got great genes and never had acne as a teen, but most of my friends did, and it faded!. Just leave it alone, wash your face once a night like normal and it will go away within a few years!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Sweetie, if you haven't already you want to see your doctor about this!. With young teens it's hormones more then diet that causes acne, but there are meds that can help, and healthy diet never hurt :-)Www@FoodAQ@Com

my son had acne he tried sudocreme and it worked good luckWww@FoodAQ@Com
