Question for Nutrition and Diet Experts!!! Please Help

May 16, 2002

This website on black skin has been advocating sulfur and I came upon

it while researching sulfur. While I am not black, and few blacks

have rosacea, I like some of its diet recommendations. I noticed

eating 4 Metrx bars, each with 100% of the USRDA of iodine, and a

pound of mozzarella cheese, and shortly thereafter, this caused me to

break out. Also, they recommend avoiding nuts, and so do and

. So, my question is, they also advocate avoiding all dairy

products. Is whey protein, mike protein isolate, and/or caseinate

considered a diary product which should be avoided by an acne person

or just the basic milk, yogurt, and cheese what they mean? What

specific element of dairy is bad, or is any, even how slightly

derrived from dairy, proscribed.

Avoid iodine in the diet, including salty snacks, fast foods, all

processed foods, seasoned salt, iodized salt, soy sauce, products

with MSG, seaweed, sushi, Chinese food, Mexican food, nuts, dairy

products, processed meats (lunch meat, deli sandwiches, bacon,

franks, sausage) kelp, vitamin supplements and condiments containing

kelp, MSG and/or iodized salt. Avoid dairy, especially cheese.

Believe this....cows are dumb as bricks, bored, uneducated and

jobless, so they stand around all day (like unemployed folks standin'

on street corner) and lick huge blocks of salt. Cheese is a major

acne aggravator and it makes you retain water and get hella bloated.

Hormone-laden foods, including wheat germ and peanut products, must

be avoided. Some cold and flu medications contain bromides and can

aggravate acne.
