Does chocolate cause acne?

Despite there are myths exist about foods such as chocolate that cause acne, so far no studies have been able to show to that effect. In fact, what effect foods seem to have on either the development or the course of acne in most people remains unclear.

In a study looking at the possible effects of chocolate on acne, the result showed that chocolate had no major effect on most patients, i.e. a mixed result with some patients reported to say it made their acne worse, while some reported it made their acne better. However, for those who feel eating chocolate made their acne flares, it could be due to an overlap of condition that look like acne which we called rosacea.

If we are not convinced that chocolate has no effect on acne break out, the best acne care and acne clear solution would be not to eat the chocolate.
