diet and acne

[dpg04]

ok i been reading up on diets that can help with acne, i have bad i guess severe acne on my back and moderate on chest and face and i get big painful ones and big and small white heads and just red bumps and irritations and i have very dry skin, well anyways i been reading about diets and i been reading to go on a diet for a week or so by eating only fruits and veggies and drink nothing but warter and a lot of water, what do u all know about this and how do u feel about this diet and has anyone done this or doing it now? i need opinions please

for me i eat things found in nature, so yes lots of fruits and veggies but also nuts and meats and things like that. I am doing this now and i havent done it long enough to see full results but it is helpinga nd idid it this past summer and it cleared my chest and back dramatically, and the first few days are hard but after that u dont crave unhealthy carbs anymore and u will begin eating more fruits and things instead

you said meats but i read that eating red meat is not good to eat on this diet, whats your take on that ?

[dpg04]

well actually im not going on the diet i will hold off on the diet for a while i am gonna try a new line of products i have not tried yet and see if it helps for a few weeks.

I think foods that are said to cleanse the colon or the liver are good. So, meats and diary are out. Also, foods with a lot of antioxidants in them (fruits and veggies). Drinking a lot of water is always good for the skin. Did you hear anything about soy?
