THE BEST PROTEIN BARS, POWDERS, AND DRINKS FOR ACNE
*Before making any dietary changes consult with your doctor. The acne-prone individual must make some necessary changes to achieve clear skin. While the following protein sources do not cause acne (remember that acne is a genetic condition), some protein shakes, bars, and powders can aggravate acne and the severity of breakouts for those that are acne-prone. I like to call these Acne Triggers Aka "Self-Inflicted" Acne. Even if you think your diet is on point and you are into clean eating, there still could be some hidden food culprits that are contributing to your breakouts.
DISCLAIMER: Protein powder and protein bar companies change their recipes often. Check every package when you purchase!
While a product may have been approved in the past, it may no longer be approved because:
A) A new pore-clogging ingredient has come to our attention
B) Manufacturers change their formulas
Check the active and inactive ingredients on all your supplements you take at home. Non of these 'avoid ingreidnts' should be listed on the label. If they are toss them, and view our safe Supplement List for an alternative.
AVOID INGREDIENTS - Peanut butter, peanuts, peanut oil, whey, dairy, casein (dairy), iodine, iodides, potassium iodine, potassium chloride, soy, algae, Maca powder, biotin, B12, creatine, canola oil, kelp, maca, seaweed, chlorella, and spirullina.
