Does Chocolate Give you Acne?

The kids came home from trick-or-treating last night and like any responsible parent you checked their candy.  If a parent checks Halloween candy, she's going to want to eat some. When your child gives you a piece of candy your going to want to eat some more...and more.

What happens if you over indulged last night?  Is all that chocolate going to show up on your face?

The answer is probably not. In this article, Myth or Fact: Eating Chocolate Causes Acne the answers to the question of what foods affect your skin are discussed. Read it and let us know what you think.

**Update**
Several new studies have looked into this age-old question further and have found there may be a link between diet and acne. You can find out more in this article from the American Academy of Dermatology.

Will this new information prompt you to change your eating habits, or does it confirm what you already suspected? We'd love to hear what you think.
