Is Newly Formed Acne From Diet Change?

Hello

My name is Jen and I was recently diagnosed with celiac disease in the first week of feb. 2010 by a bloodtest. I had a biopsy taken last week and I am still waiting the results.

I have a question for anyone that could help. Over the last month or so I have started to get lots of pimples. Everyday my face seems to be getting worse and its not just little pimples it seems to be big sores.Despite any OTC topical creams it doesnt clear up. I was never one to ever have pimples other than right before that time of the month even when I was a teenager. Could this be a result of my drastic diet change? I really hate the way I look and I cant find anything to help.....Please if anyone has had any of these similar issues let me know..... thanks!!! Jen

Wish I could help you there. I am wondering if it is the gluten coming out of system. I know that drugs take a long time and seep out of your pores, so why not gluten as it is a poison to us. I have what looks like acne but doesn't feel like it. It comes out on one side of my chin and one side of my chest. Have noticed this for the last few months and when I get tireder they come out more. Not know if that is the "healing process".

I'm having a similar problem. I saw an old thread on this site that suggested breakouts could be caused by a sensitivity to soy (or corn). I don't think I'm eating any soy, but I haven't checked my vitamins/supplements.

I am one who never suffered from acne in my life before going gluten free. I had two break-outs, one on cheeks and one on my forehead, both times from supplements. The first was a B12 sublingual and I still haven't figured out what bothered me with that, and the second was an anthocyanin supplement. With the B12 it was overnight; with the anthocyanins it built up into an eruption over a period of a week or two. Withdrawal of the offending substances cleared the problem, although the B12 need a kick in the A$$ with an anti-acne medication. I don't know if this has any relevance to what you are experiencing.

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      @pilber309, as knittykitty pointed out, lactose intolerance is not the only issue with dairy in celiac community. Lactose intolerance has to do with the sugar component of dairy, lactose. However, some celiacs react to a protein fraction in dairy, namely, casein, like they do gluten.

      Can You Really Trust Gluten-Free Menus? What Every Celiac Needs to Know Before Eating Out

      Over the last 3+ years I've had very good experiences with waitstaff being very knowledgeable about celiac in some chain and other restaurants. Some good news: I recently verified that Jack in the Box has separate fryers for breaded food and their French fries. I've had their S/W chicken salad (grilled), fries and TONS of their tacos with no ill effects...

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      It could well be a new intolerance developing. Does your diet incorporate pure oats i.e. those safe for coeliac consumption? I find I can only tolerate a certain amount, same goes for dairy in fact, then I start to get gastric symptoms. Or have you started consuming a new type of gluten-free bread, or more gluten-free bread than normal, that might contain...

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      I eat a lot of dairy but its intermittent is this burning so I would assume it would happen all the time. Plus I have been tested for lactose intolerance  etc and I am fine and the other symptoms of that I don't get. As a aside  my dad died last month after a long illness so I wonder if the stress of that might be a influence as a bodily reaction to stress.
