Re: Rage & Aggression and Acne

[Guest guest]

I've always suffered from acne as well (teens, 20s, 30s and now in my 40s).

Because I was mercury toxic and low on energy, I used coke, cookies and

candy for energy. I never understood until recently, that whatever is in

them (I suspect high fructose corn syrup) contributes to my complexion

problem.

I continue to have some fruit and organic fruit juice (orange acerbates my

yeast problem) but I still don't break out when I have an o.j. shake (even

though I might get yeasty). Lemon is the shake I go with most as it's very

low on sugar (sweetened with xylitol or stevia).

I bought coke from Mexico (costco) to keep in my pantry for the rare

occasion that I want a coke (Mexican coke is made from sugar not corn syrup).

I

had one a week or two ago with pizza and I did NOT break out.

I did, however, break out a few weeks ago after purchasing some weight

watcher 1 and 2 point bars. They were only 50-100 calories but were made with

HFCS.

I have eliminated almost everything in the house with it (including

catsup). The only item I still use with any regularity is Yoshitas Teriake

sauce. I don't seem to break out from a Tbsp or so perhaps because it's always

consumed with a big salad and rice (the Tariake chicken).

Most of the people on this list are probably very conscious about HFCS but

I thought I might mention it since it's in SO many of the juice products

today, canned things (like ravioli, chili) and condiments. I was shocked

when cleaning out my pantry, fridge and freezer how many things list HFCS as

an ingredient.

My skin has never looked this good. I have been cutting down on sweets

over the years (I lived on them in my teens and 20s). I wish I would have

given up that garbage to this degree decades ago! Baby steps!
