For those who eat meat, check out Steak and Butter Gal. She was vegan for 6 years and all sorts of autoimmune and skin issues, including psoriasis, horrible cystic acne, and eczema. She went carnivore and her skin is now totally clear. I think the key is removing sugar, grains, processed food, and seed oils. Then for those struggling with being vegan (there are many who have gotten severe skin, autoimmune, and GI issues), the important thing is meat heavy or carnivore, including animal protein and fat. Fat is important for healthy hormones, skin, brain, and cells.

@Rudelherz - not true at all. We have been lied to over and over about cholesterol and saturated fat. Sugar, processed carbs, grains, and seed oils are the problem. In the states, it’s estimated that 93% of adults are metabolically unhealthy or insulin resistance. How do you reverse IR? Eat fewer carbs less often. What causes the heart disease and inflammation that lead to stroke and heart attacks? Carbs, NOT animal fat.

@emh8861 - cystic acne is just one symptom of a crap diet. Different people end up with different things: autoimmune, cancer, heart disease, IBD, skin conditions, obesity, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s, etc. Every chronic disease ties back to poor metabolic health/insulin resistance.

More often than not, it is, especially cystic acne. People say it’s hormones. Precisely, it is hormones. So is metabolic health and fat loss. It’s all hormonal. When you get hormones in check through diet, the acne goes away (or gets better).

Yes.

@walterski8377 - was your score 5 or under? If not, your insulin is too high. Doctors will say 25 or lower is good, but that’s because most of these tests are only done on metabolically unhealthy people (it’s estimated 93% of American adults are insulin resistant). Did you also do CRP, which is critical for telling whether you’re inflamed?
