Hi-

well that has not been my experience at all. I've managed to completely clear up my acne by eating a lot of saturated fat (but no sugar and only carbs coming from vegetables). I know lots of other people that have had this experience too. I now think it acne has more to do with insulin stimulation.

I hear you about the flax seed, but it doesn't seem to have affected me negatively at all. I'll tell you what DOES affect me negatively - high dose B complex supplements - but that is another story.
