Years ago, I asked my doctor about this and he said that the pimples from chocolate is actually a myth. I didn't believe him, so I stopped eating it for awhile - and nothing cleared up. I changed my routines for face washing and reduced how much fried food I was eating, and that worked. So, I indulge in eating chocolate without worrying what it'll do to my face. hehe

Hi, I eat a piece of choc from a large bar nearly everyday...hehe... But I haven't have any pimples for a long time since my puberty stage at I think 12years old..haha I fully agree with princessgar about her comment on drinking lots of water and fruits. Have your vegetables too! I too believe beauty comes from within. Reducing on fried foods will help too. Engage in some exercise as well. Sweat it out and your whole body would feel fresh and great. I exercise around 4 to 5 times a week. Personally I don't really cleanse or tone my face. Maybe it's because I don't see the need to and I also "forget to" although my mum says it's better to (or recommended) for better skin...haha... Unless I feel like it, then I cleanse..haha.. Actually I love chocz and ice-creams!! Yum Yum!! Cheers.

hi burki1994, my dear freind, i love chocolate and i eat it . now i dont eat that much because i have gained lots of weight and i know very well that chocolate can cause weight gain. very few people i think dont like chocolate , so how come we often end up feeling guilty after eating it. and if you think that you will end up in having a face full of pimples then its an example of an old wives tale or granny's story. there is no such clear evidence or proof which can prove that chocolate cause pimples. and my dear friend, how can something as horrible as a pimple be caused by eating something as delicious as chcolate? as much as i know, it depends on your type of skin, your area, what climate is there and above all, your harmones.

I have read that chocolate doesn't actually cause pimples. That it is all a myth. I love chocolate too! i think as long as your minimum of once a day chocolate is in a very small amount that you will be just fine!

I don't know if it will stop your pimples or make them go away. Pimples are related to the way you eat. For me i tend to eat alot of chocolate before my menstrual. I then will get maybe one pimple because of eating all those sweets. I only get a pimple maybe two or three times a year. Its not though just about chocolate. Its about what you eat. Also keeping your face clean and not continiously touching your face.

Yes i discovered its not about chocolate.And you are right that its about the way you eat.If you eat lots of chocolate it won't matter.I got pimples because i eat fast foods and sweets.I like them whatever.I reduced fast foods and bought crems and it worked perfectly.Thank you for your comment and happy myLotting

I use to get pimples when I eat chocolates, nuts and eggs..that was the beginning time when I use to get lots of it. Cocoa is known to be heaty for the body for certain people so may be you could stop for a couple of days to check and then you gradually start back again. Stress could also lead to having pimples..relaxing and drinking lots of water and eating fruits will help a lot as beauty comes from the inside. Princess

Yea... I have heard of this eating too much chocolate makes pimples worse, I used to have lots of pimples when I was teenage, I tried not to eat like crazy and drank a tones of water. Water helps flushing away the crab in your body a lot a lot, so I drink a lot of watereveryday.
