This Reddit Thread Is Here to Set Straight Common Beliefs That Are Misconceptions

We’re all told to stop drinking soda and eating chocolate and greasy pizza if we want clear skin. If it were that easy, very few teens would struggle with acne. It’s a genetic issue, and it’s pretty much unavoidable. This is why so few acne products actually work. They can only do so much! Your skin is either prone to acne, or it’s not.

That said, your diet does exacerbate the issue if you are already prone to acne. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather have a few extra pimples than give up the yummy foods that are a staple for teenagehood. If I’m going to have acne, either way, I’m going to enjoy life to the fullest!
