I don't think so, but why? Why do they not have really bad acne due to juicing like hell? Do they have a secret?

Okay, maybe I was a little harsh but all he had to do was google it. (www.acne.org) Acne is not caused by juicing although some claim that it is a side effect.
Acne - is a disorder that causes outbreaks of skin lesions commonly called pimples. It is caused by the skin's oil glands making too much sebum, an oily substance, which leads to plugged pores. It also can be caused by the rapid production of a bacteria P. acnes.
Acne lesions occur mostly on the face, neck, back, chest, and shoulders. It is the most common skin disease. Although acne is not a serious health threat, severe acne can lead to disfiguring and permanent scarring.
In order to keep it in check one must see a dermo to get treatments. I did hear anecdotally that a person who tans a lot (tanning beds) can minimize the effects of acne and have clearer skin. I hope that helps.Last edited by haggy0927; 01-28-2008 at 04:09 PM.

Accutane. If you don't dick around like some douche bags and actually follow the instructions, you probably won't encounter acne again in your life. I've seen AMAZING results when my friends had used it.
I get a few zits from time to time but my skin is generally clear. Every now and again I'll have a small outbreak, like with the three zits I have on my chest/shoulders and two on my face, and it irritates me to no end. But fortunately I'm no where near the level that some people get to. I couldn't justify using accutane because of the health complications but if I had severe acne then it would be a serious consideration.

You've obviously never seen a middle-aged juicer with b-acne. Not every juicer gets acne, just like not every teenager gets acne, but high hormone levels do cause acne in many people.
From your link btw:
Acne by its very nature can be considered a hormonal disease. Hormones are responsible for the maturation of the oil glands in our skin. This is why children do not experience acne.More specifically, acne may be precipitated by androgens"Governments don't want a population capable of critical thinking. They want obedient workers, people just smart enough to run the machines and just dumb enough to passively accept their situation" - George Carlin

one common side effect of accutane, or roaccutane- as it is licensed in the Uk includes the following
calcifications of tendons and ligaments- Calcium deposits in soft tissue, sore tendons, high levels of muscle breakdown products in your blood if you exercise vigorously
the dermatologist actually recommended that I cut back on the gym
there were many, many other side effects, this is no exaggeration Far too many to list that spread across the spectrum i.e. skin, hair, joints, blood levels, sight, heart, liver etc etc. So many in fact, that I actually decided not to take it in the end

I think tanning helps with acne a lot... maybe someone can back me up on this, but doesn't continuous GH use improve the skin, meaning that it becomes softer, and more evenly toned? That would explain why most of the pros have decent skin, while your everyday user, that most likely doesn't use GH, would only be seeing the effects of higher test levels?
