Chocolate Acne Myth

The actual fact of the matter remains that no food has been proven conclusively, by itself, to cause acne. The causes of acne, like acne itself, refuse such a simple pigeonhole. Chocolate and acne , despite the stigma of myth and fear, do not go hand in hand, at least not chocolate by itself. In truth, a

person's overall diet has more to do with acne breakouts than any individual food that person might eat. We might expect a person who ate nothing but chocolate to have acne, but we would also expect that person to have tooth decay, vitamin deficiencies, and a high chance of osteoporosis. Lest that seem a negative commentary, we could expect similar diet related maladies for a person who ate absolutely nothing but carrots, but nobody likes carrots enough to do that.
