Is it true that you can get pimples from these things............?

Question

I heard that eating chocolate, smoking weed or cigaretts, and stress cause you to break out, are they true?

Answer 1

Depends on the person. I've seen people (i.e one of my best friends) who can eat junk and never get a single pimple and I've seen people who do. They claim that chocolate doesn't cause acne but I know if I eat too much I'll break out a little. Moderation is best. Though as far as smoking cigs (not sure about weed), I've hardly ever seen a smoker with good, glowing skin. I've seen girls in their late teens, early 20's who are already getting wrinkles from being smokers for years. And their complexion is so dull. Pimples? I think that has more to do with stress, hormones and genetics.

Answer 2

yes it's all true! I've seen it first hand with working in Hospitals. Everything you put in your body comes out some how! It's part of nature! If you eat chocolate or do any of the things you listed it has a negative reflect on your nervous system! The neurons in your brain burn out! They don't grow new ones and they don't come back! Then you can suffer from a form of dementia! That's why alot of people forget like they have Alzheimer's, but they don't have Alzheimer's. Dementia is irreversable! Once you have it, you have it! Thats is the long term affects on weed, cigaretts and stress! The short term facts are problems with your skin! Like People have been known to get pimples, Boils, clogged pores, and other skin blemishes! So be careful with stress and other things you put in your body that don't really belong in the first place! All your body is doing is getting it out as fast and as much as possible! If your allergic to Chocolate yeah it would probably do that! Chocolate won't cause the other extreme things though!

Answer 3

I do not think that those things are universally true for everyone. I am not prone nor have every been prone to any pimples. But other people if they eat a lot of chocolate or french fries will cause them to break out.

For me I get cold sores from stress

Answer 4

1- no 2- no 3- maybe, if you don't wash up frequently 4- no 5- I don't know 6- no 7- no evidence to that 8- popping them can complicate the condition and lead to more severe acne 9- there is an area in the face called the dangerous triangle (the 3 points of the triangle being the tip of the nose, and the outer corners of both eyes) poping pimples in this area can kill you (cavernous thrombosis) 10- I don't think so I hope I helped

Answer 5

Getting pimples from eating chocolate is a myth unless you're a glutton.

Answer 6

Stress, yes, because stress produces a hormone called cortisol which makes you gain weight and break out. Chocolate, weed, and cigarettes have not been proven to cause breakouts, but some people swear they break out from these things.

Answer 7

Apparently chocolate and chips don't cause breakouts unless you smear them directly on your face!! LOL... And my sis in law told me that 99% of people don't get spots from chocolate and the 1% that do are probably allergic, hence the spots!! Interesting huh?! Hope that helps reassure you. Stress... unfortunately does!! You can't have it always! LOL

Answer 8

stress? yes
i also heard that large amounts of chocolate can cause you to break out as well but i guess it all depends on your skin type.

Answer 9

It depends on your skin type most of them can but the most popular is stress...relax so you don't break out!!

Answer 10

not chocolate and smoking but stress does
