Acne Linked to Milk Consumption

For many years dermatologists have insisted that acne has no connection to diet. Researchers at Harvard are finally siding with mothers who insist that this is simply not true. Too much milk consumption is now proven to increase acne. One source speculates that this is because most milk comes from pregnant cows, whose hormone levels are high. In addition hormones are frequently added to cows to increase production. Too much sugar and undetected food allergies are also important, according to my experience.
