Chocolate Induced Acne

Fallacy that is! There holds no truth in blaming mouth-watering chocolates to have caused unsightly acne. Innocent as it is of the crime, your beloved chocolates have nothing to do with physiologically caused pimples.

Hormonal changes, overly reactive sebaceous glands and accumulation of dead skin cells are some of the reasons why an individual acquires acne. Adding to the insult is the possible accumulation of unfriendly acne-initiating bacteria.

Various researches have proven that there remains to be no direct link between acne and food intake, though eating a considerable amount of healthy food helps you maintain a health, young-looking skin.
