Some say its fact and some say its fiction. Which one is true and why? It makes sense to be fact, because everytime I eat chocolate, I get a zip or two the next day or so!!! There must be some truth in this. If not, please explain to me what you know!

fiction. excess fat in many chocolate products as well as other foods can cause an imbalance in the hormone and immune system which can cause acne. chocolate in and of itself does not.

Dear Lady S,
I would have to fully agree that whenever I eat chocolate sweets, pimples immediately pop "in". It's very frustrating... but I've thought that maybe it only affects certain skin types? Who knows. Though it does seem that a majority have this chocolate-causing-pimples problem, some claim it's merely fiction; there must be a reason I guess if people have said this! That must mean they are, thus, not affected... Therefore, I say it depends by whom the chocolate is eaten by.
Hope I have satisfactorily answered your inquisition,
Lady92 : )

I struggled with acne for years and I finally found the solution that works for me. We have been fooled, tricked, deceived, and just plain lied to. It's time that someone put a stop to it, and everyone learn the truth!
Those of us who suffer from acne have usually been given 2 choices and neither of them work:
1. Over the counter remedies such as cleansers, creams, ointments, etc. These things have been proven over and over again not to work. Why? It does not address the root cause of the problem.
2. Go see a doctor and or dermatologist. They will generally prescribe prescription drugs which include topicals and or antibiotics. This, too, has been proven over and over again not to work. Why? It does not address the root cause of the problem.
I found a step-by-step program that cured my acne and it has never come back. It is amazing and doesn’t use any drugs or doctors. The truth is that acne can be cured…if we know the secret the doctors and drug companies don’t want us to know.
There is a great website: http://cure-my-acne.info/3daycure/ that has all the details. I really suggest you check it out and see if it works as well for you as it did for me.

Fiction Chocolate does not cause acne, A bit of dark chocolate every day is very good for you so have a couple of pieces and enjoy. Dove chocolate is the best.

True acne is not caused by improper diet or eating chocolate. It is caused by a hormonal imbalance. Eating chocolate may cause breakouts for some people, because of dairy intolerance for example, but it will not cause full blown acne and nor will cutting out chocolate cure it. HTH : )

Hi, I personally think it is an individual thing. I am 51y/o and I still get a zit or two when I eat chocolate. I have some friends who eat it and don't get zits. If I'm craving chocolate I just eat it and deal with having the zit.

it's the chemicals. (if you have an reaction to them) that they put in foods in general to keep them "fresh" if that's what you wish to call it.
there are all kinds of ways to get acne. if you get a zit after eating chocolate with in a 72 hour period. maybe you need to increase you water intake and try out another manufacterer of chocolate. maybe what they're putting in the chocolate to keep it preserved is playing havoc with you.. it could be a rather mild allergy.
:D
(sugars in my experience can make you acne out)

Myth. There has been study done that states that chocolate or any other food does not cause breakouts. You are more likely to get a breakout by touching your face with your hands.

i think everyone's different...and for some people it might! Like my hubby if he drinks soda, even 1/2 of one...literally the next day his face is really broken out...our bodies also will react to what doesn't go well with our systems...we aren't supposed to consume all the garbage we do and our bodies will tell us with acne, skin problems, internal problems, and even cancer if we put enough garbage inside...
