Should you switch to vegan protein for better skin health? Everyone’s biology is different, but if you are someone who suffers from acne, specifically cystic acne, I’d highly suggest you eliminating dairy from your diet, including whey protein. .
For me personally, the biggest difference with my skin came from removing all dairy, especially they whey protein powder I was having every day post-workout. Triggers will be different for everyone, but I wanted to share with you 3 of the reasons dairy can be a major contributor to your cystic acne.

1️⃣Dairy is highly inflammatory as it promotes the production of prostaglandins and leukotrines that cause inflammation, cramps, and pain in the body. The proteins (casein and whey) in dairy are what give it these inflammatory properties -(it’s not just lactose in dairy that causes issues for people). .
2️⃣Dairy is a source of xenoestrogens – or estrogen mimickers – that worsen estrogen dominant conditions, hormonal imbalances and acne. *It is estimated that 90% of human dioxin exposure is through food – primarily dairy and meat products*. The world health organization states that “Dioxins are highly toxic and can cause reproductive and developmental problems, damage the immune system, interfere with hormones and also cause cancer.”
3️⃣Lastly, dairy boosts insulin and insulin-like growth factor which contribute to hormone production, oil production and acne. .

Is your protein whey-ing you down?

Power OFF is exactly what I’ve needed. I am a full-time working mom, wife, and mother of two very active boys. When I get home, I still have “work” to do. Whether it’s cleaning up from the morning, making dinner, spending time just being with my boys, or any other multitude of things I do every night.

Power OFF is exactly what I’ve needed. I am a full-time working mom, wife, and mother of two very active boys. We, as parents - and especially mothers, are always thinking, feeling, acting, reacting, and constantly running the lists of things to do through our minds - need to Power OFF at night!

"Today, it blows my mind that I thought what I put in my body had no impact on my skin. Those antibiotics I took for years? They killed my happy gut flora, making it a sad place that couldn't digest food properly ... which would then show up on my face."

The story of my face is my health origin story. When I was 14, I saw my first dermatologist. She told me what I eat didn't affect my skin, then gave me a prescription for a topical ointment, astringent and put me on an antibiotic.

The new Canadian Food Guide was released this week and we’re a fan of the changes:

1. Dairy is no longer a food group 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

2. Servings per day has been replaced with an emphasis on unprocessed, plant-based foods.

3. No more milk or sugary juice - “Make water your drink of choice”

A great step forward for Canadian nutrition. Do you think the United States will follow?
