Can food affect Acne

[Lori Long]

My son has bad acne, he eats many cashews and nuts including trail mixes. Could this be a source of why his ance is more sever at times. He washes his face every morning and evening with a tea tree soap, he does a deep cleaning every few days and is also on tetriclyn.

can be a food allergy, but it could be his age/hormones too. I was told its a myth that Acne is from dirt. My dermatologist told me it was hormonal and diet mixed together...its definetly good to drink a lot of water. You did not mention his age. If he is a little boy, i would ask the Doctor.

certain fooRAB definitely affect my acne. cashews are one of them. i eliminated all nuts and peanut butter, dairy products,chocolate, and sodas. i always notice a few pimples the next day after having any of these.
