How often do you consume dairy products?

Dairy, even organic and varieties without added hormones, all contain natural hormones that can lead to acne. Remember, dairy only comes from pregnant cows, so you’re taking in the hormones from both the male and the female involved in the reproduction experience and the milk that is the result. Doctor Mark Hyman shares that there are over 60 hormones in one glass of of added hormone-free raw milk and who knows how many in other dairy products. How’s that for skin food?

Acne is defined as skin breakouts that occur when the pores become clogged with dead skin cells or bacteria. Blackheads, whiteheads, cysts, and pustules are the result of these clogged pores.

Acne is the most common skin condition in the United States. The American Academy of Dermatology estimates that acne affects 50 million people each year. While acne rates have risen, so has the rate of dairy and processed food consumption in the Western diet. Acne has many causes, and every person’s skin is different. But there’s significant evidence to support the idea that dairy can irritate or cause acne for some people.

Cows’ milk can cause inflammation, leading to a double whammy effect on your skin. The hormones in milk can react with the testosterone in your body (ladies are no exception, they have testosterone too!). Hormonal changes in the bloodstream can cause bad breakouts—ahem, puberty—due to an increased sebum production. Sebum is the waxy substance secreted by pores to keep skin moist and pliable, but we know it as oil and a common pore-clogging culprit. Excessive sebum production leads to oily skin and pimples galore.

The problems don’t stop there; scientists believe milk proteins such as whey and casein are also related to dairy acne. They both release a hormone called IGF-1, a growth hormone great for baby cows but bad for human skin. It makes calves grow big and strong, but it has the same effect on our pimples. IGF-1, which is similar to insulin, causes inflammation that leads to breakouts. Whey and casein are often added to skim milk to make it taste less watery; if you’re a big fan of milk but concerned about your complexion, try sticking to whole milk instead. Whole milk contains a number of acids great for boosting metabolism—unfortunately these acids also cause insulin levels to spike. Insulin increases the bloodstream sugar content, which can also trigger breakouts, so drink your whole milk in moderation.
