Does eating chocolate really cause acne?

Question

Does eating chocolate really cause acne?

Answer 1

NO...

Answer 2

No. That is a myth. There is no direct link between chocolate and  acne. A bad diet does cause acne.

Something that helps is keeping your hands and face clean. It reduce any incidence of acne.

Answer 3

No, it doesn't. I wonder how that myth started. But don't just go out and gulp down 10 Brand X chocolate bars, because you will get sick and/or tired for a while(from the sugar rush).

Answer 4

Don't think so, if it did, I'd be COVERED in acne!

Answer 5

Nope. Its a myth. Its true that you can have too much of a good thing though. Just have everything in moderation.  

Answer 6

It depends on the person.  A food that is high in fats and oils, such as bacon or french fries, can cause acne.  You would have to eat a LOT of chocolate for it to b noticeable, but bacon actually does give me acne...

Answer 7

No, thank goodness ;-)

Answer 8

No it would say it doesn't. Although if you are not eating anything healthy and only eating bad foods etc, not enough water. Then your diet does affect your health in lots of ways.

When you have a poor diet, the inside of you body becomes toxic, and it releases that toxic through your skin to reduce it in your body.

So no a piece of chocolate or pizza will not result in pimples, but a poor diet and unhealthy life style will show up on your face as your body tries to fight the toxins.  

Answer 9

NO! It is caused due to clogged pores. Hormones can play a part in breakouts too. Wash your face regularly and wash your hands before you touch your face. Do not squeeze pimples! Leads to scarring and can infect unclogged pores with puss causing more pimples.
