Hi Dani I was wondering if you could put up a video derciibsng your experience w/ Accutane. You had mentioned it in your first video to cure your acne. My daughter suffers from acne & all the prescriptions and otc treatments don’t seem to work. She is so frustrated. But I’ve heard such scary things about accutane & I’m afraid to let her go that route. What advice can you give me? Congrats on these results! You look amazing & it was courageous to share your journey with all of us. Thank you.
I had acne pretty consistently over a 13 year period. I’m also lactose intolerant, so my dairy intake was extremely minimal (sometimes I just couldn’t resist those In-N-Out milkshakes!). Sure it cleared up a bit with Pro-Activ and some other products but zits still appeared, albeit fewer. What’s weird is that after moving from the West coast to the East coast my zits immediately began leaving hyperpigmentation marks. I do have an olive skin tone, but I still don’t understand why my skin would suddenly have that reaction, when it never did over the previous 8 years. (Any ideas?) Then I went from the East coast to the middle of the Pacific Ocean where I was much more physically active. Still had zits & hyperpigmentation. A year later, I went vegan & I don’t remember if it was a sudden change or if it took a few months, but my skin skin would be clear for weeks at a time. I would still get a zit–literally just 1–at most once a month (probably period related, but I didn’t pay attention to that, so idk for sure). I still used acne wash in the shower, but I stopped applying acne products afterwards. Stopped using foundation even. Just my skin & moisturizer. Now, I went vegan for environmental reasons, so I had no expectations in regards to this & just sort of figured that I was growing out of my “zit stage” of life. So I wasn’t impressed or anything.What did amaze me were the compliments I began receiving from other people. Even during my 1-zit periods! Suddenly complete strangers, everywhere I went, were telling me how incredible my skin was. Now, I’m not someone who takes compliments seriously, I always think “they’re just being nice”. But SO MANY people were telling my how amazing my skin looked & asking me what products I used (uh… Oil of Olay?) that I started thinking okay this has to be diet related.I was pressed to write this only because Katie–who commented above–kind of makes it sound that the “vegan glow” is a load of crap. I’m not trying to defend it or anything, but wanted to share that apparently I had this “glow” & I can only warrant it to my change in diet. So, after almost 2.5 years as a vegan, is my skin awesome? Nope. BUT, I can’t say that it’s necessarily diet related. My acne started up again the weeks prior to my move from Hawaii to California – and it hasn’t cleared up since. My physical activity level went from 8 to zero & I’m pretty sure that my acne is more so related to that & the stress I’ve been under, than my diet. But alas, I am still here, on the internet, trying to figure out how I can optimize my chances of getting rid of this acne once & for all!
Once you take a basic biology class in college or any type of nutrition course you realize just how important protein, cholesterol (found in primarily animal products) and fat is to the body. It’s literally in every single cell. Coincidentally, those 3 things are largely absent in both the vegetarian and vegan diets. The vegan diet is simply not equipped to get all of the micronutrients and minerals that our bodies need. As anyone concerned with their health should know, there’s more to food than just Carbs/Fat/Protein and Vitamins/Minerals. There are compounds that we’re just beginning to discover and many more we don’t even know about. That whole eating chicken soup while you have a cold is actually partially rooted in science. All meats but poultry especially help your body produce antibodies to fight off infections due to bacteria and viruses. All enzymes in the body are made from proteins.I’ve already posted my experiences going veggie and they weren’t pretty. In regards to it being the msot ethical way of eating, hmm. If you asked me that a year ago I would have agreed completely but I’m not so sure nowadays. The way I like to think of it is “circle of life, etc. etc. If this cow COULD eat me, you bet she would.” I don’t view eating animals as inherently good or bad. I think it’s inherently morally ambiguous/neutral. I feel bad that an animal had to die to feed me but I don’t feel bad about placing myself and my personal health before the animal. There’s also very few ways to get minerals such as zinc without supplementation and frankly if you NEED to supplement something in your diet, it’s not a good diet. Supplements should be just what the name implies – something you take to make your already healthy diet just a bit better or more “well rounded” because as humans living in the 21st century we have certain limitations such as money and going to the grocery.
OKAY…..I have been reading all of your comments and trying to figure out what in the world you are thinking. I am a fitness coach and part of my job is to inform people on nutrition. I personally would never recomend the vegan or vegitarian diet, For several reasons….Why do we have canine teeth?? because we are suppost to eat meat this is a fact based on evolution. If you are worried about acne, vitamin B12 found in meat and other animal products, Is something new to try. a vitamin B12 deficiency often results in acne and other skin problems. Thus why vegans may have more acne then say a person who loves meat! A diet that I often recomend to kick start weight loss and healthy living is called the paleo diet! …..Look it up! It is very intresting and it is based on a high protien, very very high VEGGI, fruit, nuts and seeds, NO SUGAR DIET! I have never seen a diet with better results, the most important thing when doing any type of diet or lifestyle change rather, is always knowing what you are putting in your body! NO processed foods! xx part of the paleo diet includes no grains. …SORRY! Another part also includes eating organic or whole foods, so for example getting your meat and eggs from a local farmer and even growing your own veggies. This is one of the hardest parts if you do not have access to whole foods. The reason for most all health problems is no doubt linked to the food we consume and where is COMES FROM!! MEAT EATERS PLEASE CONSIDER that what ever the cow eats or the chicken eats, will soon be in you!! what ever hormones and antibiotics they are fed will be in you!! VEGANS PLEASE CONSIDER that not all animal products are bad, and i think if you had a better understanding of local ranchers and farmers you would no longer feel like you could not eat animal products!!
