I love all the CL products I've tried so this isn't a rip on them. I've just personaly had some reactions to green mag: it has been giving me acne on my back. I didn't think much of it, but when I stopped taking it it stopped. I moved back to the states and stopped working out while on the move (and supplementing GM), and realized when I started back up that my acne flaired up again. It tastes so good too!!
has anyone experienced the same with green BULGE? cause I'd like to try it next.... I've tryed monhydrate, cellmass, and sizeon with no problems. I just dont have the money for BSN/GASPARI at this point in my life (in grad school, just moved, life, etc.)
Also, just out of curiosity, what in GM could be causing the acne?
Any suggestions/input would be appreciated.

most probably correct
exactly, the increased sweating fromt he gym and green mag may be causing it indirectly.
noticed when you stopped using green mag you also stopped going to the gym, you are sweating less so less clogged pores and less pimples as a result.Specials & insider info

a change in diet (quickly increasing your calories), stress, soap clogging your pores(have to check if its oil free and wont clog pores. If you shower right after you workout it may not be the sweat issue. get a medicated body wash (nuetrogena body wash) and ull be good to go!

I have never had back acne in my life up until the point of me taking green mag. I haven't changed my soap, I do shower right after my workout, and I do wash. I also have a clean diet. If its not the green mag then I don't know what it could be. I've been working out for about 6 years and have been sweating the entire time with out any issues. If no one else is having problems with this, then I guess its just me. I'll check into the oxyclean soap.

strange, i know when i was taking creatine blends like xyience nox i started breaking out on my back as well, I chucked the crap and it was fine. it may not be the supp, but i know i react badly with creatine blends, thats y i just stick to a plain mono or krealk.

I'm with you on the acne problem.. i too am a huge fan of CL products, though green mag also gives me acne... After this tub is gone i'm done with green mag. I've been going to the gym 5 days a week for over a year, maybe had 4-5 pimples over 9 months or so, since starting green mag, i've had like 2-4 on my face at all times. So who knows why? But i did just order up another batch of WF and PW, and love 'em!

i have never taken green mag, but i did notice when i took Storm my back acne went crazy. and it wasnt small pimples but the large painful cystic kind. i did two runs with Storm and both times i noticed the same thing. i also notice when i use other creatine products, my facial acne dissapears and then comes back once im off of it. its funny because i told my dermatologist that creatine makes my acne disappear(until i took storm) and he told me i was crazy. so i did a little test. i went into the derma's office before i took creatine and having acne probs. then started taking mono and went back 2 months later and my back and face were clear and i wasnt using any skin care products for acne whatsoever.

i heard vinager(sp?) and apple cider(Sp?) are good. Drink it? maybe a glass of cider and a little vinager mixed in. Also, try clearasil ultra lotion. I love using it after i shave, and the next morning my skin looks so healtyh. I dont have any problems with acne at all or anything like that. so try that
