Check it out if you're open to it.
Accutane always seemed kind of scary to me, it helps people with bad acne but it also stresses out your liver. I have a friend with acne who's been going to a derm for years, and all she's developed is extra sensitive skin and desperation, because something will work for a few months and then it won't.
Anyways, try the GI thing, try some more tweaking with your diet. What works for me might not work for you, but try and find your triggers and go from there. |
I'll check out the whole GI index, but it seems that I eat foods mainly with a low GI index.
As for accutane, I have ruled that out simply because of all the negative side effects I have heard. It is just not worth the risk.
I will start drinking some more water though. I drink a fair amount, but not enough as I should be. I guess, I'll just continue eating healthly and see where it leads me...
