Yep. Your drying your internal organs as well since accutane shuts off water retention collagen hyalauronic acid production body-wide.
All your body really wanted was a raw food diet in the first place and you wouldnt have acne.
You may as well be eating rat poisen.
Stop the accutane or find out the hard way.

Yes, a diet high in essential nutrients, unprocessed and well prepared: amazing.
It was time consuming, and took more effort and self-control, but even when I was following the most "raw" and healthy diet one could imagine, I still had mild acne. It sucks. When you've tried any topical approach, and any natural treatment, whether that's diet or vitamins or whatever oils and washes, sometimes it doesn't just disappear.

So, yes. Accutane is a harsh drug. It truly is, and I've SEEN the McDonalds for breakfast, Wendy's for lunch kinds of people with the boils taking over their face. But you can't just assume that EVERY person taking the drug could rid their body of acne by just eating right. There's a reason people take it, and honestly, despite the side effects, it generally works. If I would have done it sooner, I wouldn't have tried so many useless treatments, scrubs, and antibiotics (notttt okay).
And as far as I'm concerned, the dry skin was worth it; it's nice to have clear skin again.

It's like voting. You voted for a president. The information known about him/her was available, and it was up to you to figure out what you wanted to know before voting. Whether it was a small or large amount, you were content with your decision, and you voted. You might have been happy with your choice, awesome, everything is fine and dandy--your acne is gone. Or if you weren't so satisfied, you can't go back and choose to not vote, you can only decide not to in the next election--you can STOP taking accutane. You can then rant and rave about what a mistake it was to vote and how mad you are about what happened when the president was in power--or when you were on accutane, but it was always your choice to vote, from the very beginning.

All in all. Try whatever you want, figure out what works. If you don't want to deal with the possible side effects, then learn to deal with the acne, and vice versa. Accutane isn't for everyone, and it's a pain in the butt and expensive, but it works for a lot of people, and every one of them, despite whatever complaints they make--made a CHOICE to take it.

Lastly, poison, not poisen.

Smart one. So basically anyone with acne is just really unhealthy. Do you really think people would rather take accutane than change their diet? Please don't comment unless you have been educated on the subject. What are you doing in this discussion anyway, go eat an apple.

...Wait. So we don't have grease in our blood!?
