Acne & Rosacea
I am nearly 40 and have had acne for decades, and only recently discovered that part of the problem is rosacea! I seem to have both - rosacea on my face, and acne both on my face, jaw, chest, shoulders, and back.
Over the years I have tried all the standard therapies prescribed by dermatologists: antibiotics, Retin-A, Accutane (had to go off it halfway through), etc. Nothing has helped entirely. Birth control seemed to help best, but at my age, I don't wish to do this anymore.
Six weeks ago, I cut out caffeine, artificial sweeteners, started eating natural/organic foods, cut out most 'white' carbs and sugar. My energy level is fabulous now, but my skin hasn't improved at all. I can't seem to find reliable information as to the root cause of this, much less a solution. Would love to hear your input!
