Q. My acne seemed to get better when I stopped drinking skim milk.

A. Skim milk could cause acne for several reasons, notably because it depletes vitamin A and also because, if it is pasteurized, the body mounts an immune response to it. Raw whole milk often clears up acne.

Dunno if this applies to you Jen but I'm reading up on milk and its potential effect on what we are doing, If what I post below is true I'l start drinking milk! Organic of course. Wonder if this is why sour cream masks have been claimed to work for women...

Q. Is there growth hormone in milk?

A. All cow milk contains growth hormones, which are identical to human growth hormones. These are being sold as a health food and are considered beneficial in the health food industry.

Yeah, I've read a lot on cows milk and adult acne and that's why I quit. Skin is far better. I also put a filter on my shower again though at the same time. I think that could be a contributer too: the chlorine and possibly flouride that's in the water. I have extremely sensitive skin.

Thank you for this though!
