Gluten-free = acne?
Say it ain’t so! But I’ll tell you one thing: In this dwindling month of June, I’ve had three pimples. Three! That’s after years of NO zits. Nada. Zilch. Tonight, I’ve grown a nice, big, honkin’ zit, the kind I used to get in junior high. Come on people, I’m freakin’ 34 years old! This acne crap is supposed to be a thing of the past.
Never before would I have considered writing about acne in a blog, but I figure I’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain. So speak up: Does anyone out there think there’s a connection between going gluten-free and getting pimply? Hmm?

yeah id agree with that. my acupuncturist [also my facialist] would say your body is getting rid of toxins. a good if not annoying things.

I have been gluten free for 8 months and I have such a broken out face my husband says I should go back to gluten because it seems as though I’m going backwards. I never even had pimples in high school and noe I’m 36 w/ a 3 year old and look like a peuburty stricken adolescent. Does any one know if it will stop?? I do feel great even though I look like ……..BLEEP!
