I have been enjoying great skin for the last few years. I have however suffered from persistent hip pain and other inflammations. I began taking an EFA supplement called Zyflamend for the inflammation. It helped--alot. Along with it though, came breakouts all over my face, scalp, neck and shoulders. I'm frustrated, while the pain is gone, this breakout thing is a pretty unacceptable trade-off. Help?- Re: Break out from EFA's gilda

This is a reply to # 1,118,636Since zyflamend is an anti-inflammatory, one wouldn't think it would CAUSE break-out type of inflammation; anything else you're doing differently? Lotions, etc?
If not, I'd consider that you may be allergic to one or more of the ingredients; this is why I dislike combination supplements - I'm always sensitive to something in it.
I'd attempt to replicate the ingredients, adding them individually until you find the culprit by your skin's reaction.- Re: Break out from EFA's herbie_mae

This is a reply to # 1,118,768There is many many other reasons for Acne apart from sugar. Sure it is one of the causes, also what type of Sugar are you talking about? White refined Sugar is terrible but Sugar from fruit is great and humans can really live well without it.

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,118,636I have been told that is one's body does not contain the needed minerals, then a person doesn't process the Omega oils well and that could lead to acne...have you checked your pH lately...or tried any alkalizing(mineral) drinks???

This is a reply to # 1,119,415Do you have an idea what those needed minerals might be?
I don't know about alkalizing mineral drinks. What do you recommend?
