------ Acne, the pimpled curse of puberty, could be a plague triggered by

refined white bread and breakfast cereal, according to researchers.

The Australians plan to test 60 teenage boys with a low carbohydrate diet for

three months and see if there is a difference. ------

....well, this is something I've been trying enforce at home with my two boys,

17 & 12, with some success. they have VERY mild flare ups but when they keep

'rubbish items in their diet to a minimum their skins clear up considerably...

at school they don't have a choice about what's on offer for lunch and even

though they've been 'brained washed' at home about what constitutes 'good' food

choices, they can't always stick to the guide lines at school... being kids,

they also choose to stray sometimes.

makes me think though about those teenagers who eat a SAD diet but DO NOT

develop acne...
