quite a lot of people disagree actually



thats it, im gnna have all the chocolates i want from now on
 
No. Chocs do NOT give spots at all!
I used to eat 5 bars a day and Alhamdulillah had clear skin. Have only been gettin spots recently coz of stress. But my doctors said that chocz do NOT coz spots. Also, hormonal imbalances affect ye, so maybe the 2 together might not be good?
I dunno. But I know chocz don't cause my spots, coz when I stopped eatin choz for 3 months I still managed to get 'em, so go ahead! Eat all you want. Just don't take any from my supply.
 
:sl: No they don't, but the sugar in it can contribute to it.
 
yep i cant wait to tell my sister that


i agree


the only reasons i get spots is stress/lack of sleep


but i hardly ever let stress get to me so its just lack of sleep
 
^ thats kinda shocking..

people always buy us chocolates, friends/cousins/colleagues

so im eating it a lot lol

come to think of it.. i hardly ever buy my own :|
 
Whoah. Junior man, are ye depriving yourself or do you just not like chocs?
Whoah. I thought 3 month deprivation was hard, but 4?!!! Whoah.

Removing spots, I've heard that the following are real good treatments:

  1. Toothpaste. Apply it over spots and around, remove after 15-20 minutes and do this for like 3 days in a row and you'll have clear skin.
  2. Honey. Apply honey to face and leave on for like 20 minutes. Makes skin clear and soft.
  3. Tomato + cucumber paste/juice and apply to skin. Clears very well!

No don't eat chocolate, I don't eat it, and I never get spots!

And don't listen to Abu Sayyad, he has no idea what he's talking about, he's just good at deleting posts, :raging:

Toothpaste...? the acid in it kills the bacteria temporarily and may make the spot itchier, so you pick at it and it goes red or several days later you get a spot in the same place! it happens..

And honey does make your skin soft, my mate tried it, but don't try it on a cold day, it will make your face sticky! Warm water will help though =)

Tomato and Cucumber?...wt*? DON'T WASTE FOOD!

Ta-ra.
 
There are many reasons to limit the amount of chocolate you eat. But, pimples, spots, acne etc are some of the few things it does not cause.


Natural unprocessed chocolate is actually healthy and nutritious. It was a staple in the Aztec diet and is still used in some Mexican recipes.

But, most people can not stand the taste of real unprocessed chocolate, so it got turned into a candy by the Dutch. Now it is a fatty confection loaded with useless calories
 
From what I heard spots or pimples are caused by hormonal imbalance. You will barely see a person in their 30’s with pimples; it is mostly people who are in their early teens to mid-20s.

:sl: They don't always go away though, it can turn into adult acne. Chocolate contains a lot of sugar which contributes to acne. It depends on what kind you have though, if you have harsh acne such as rosacea then you should definitely stay away from chocolate anyway lol.

If you want clear skin, drink lots of water, eat lots of fruits and nuts and stay away from processed food.

Like Woodrow said though, natural chocolates (not Mars bar or snickers) are actually good for you cause they contain antioxidants.

You should always speak to a dermatologist about your skin though, after all it is what their job's based on...skin lol.
 
i can tell you from experience it does definately cause acne if your prone to acne. i get loads of pimples if i eat chocolate. best thing to get rid of acne is clean up your diet and if that doesnt work try carly's smooth an clear skin treatment it worked for me very well. it has just enough benzoyl peroxide as to not irritate your skin

^^ Dark chocolate is horrible. And yah, it'd be best to ask your dermatologist what the cause of your spots is and they can then maybe help ye.
Milk and white choc all the way!!
