That creamy deliciousness that we all love with our cereal, our baked goods, or even by itself. There is now substantial evidence that milk causes acne, especially in those who drink more milk than usual.

However, there is evidence that shows a strong association between dairy products and acne. Acne is an inflammatory condition that may be influenced by the presence of certain hormones. These hormones may be increased by drinking milk and other dairy products.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-10714\" src=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_02_091818-1-400x400.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_02_091818-1-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_02_091818-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_02_091818-1-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_02_091818-1.png 600w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_02_091818-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>How does dairy cause acne?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Research in the past 2 decades has underestimated the role that hormones play in acne, especially with regards to insulin and insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). We could go on for days discussing the nuances in how hormones affect acne. For that reason, I\u2019ve dedicated a post of that <a href=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/hormonal-acne\/\">here<\/a>. For now, suffice it to say that higher hormone levels stimulate oil glands in the skin and cause more acne.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>IGF-1 and Growth Hormone<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Studies show that milk and dairy products increase IGF-1 levels. IGF-1, or insulin-like growth factor, is a protein that mediates growth hormone and other functional processes in the body. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3978780\/\">One study in older adults<\/a> showed that 3 servings of milk per day for 12 weeks increased IGF-1 levels by 10%. <a href=\"https:\/\/jnci.oxfordjournals.org\/content\/93\/17\/1330.full\">Another study<\/a> showed 16% higher IGF-1 levels in those who drank 1-2 servings of milk per day as compared to those who drank only rarely.<\/p>\n<p>Overall results showed correlation between IGF-1 and acne. Increased IGF-1 was found with increased sebum production, visible skin pores, and increased skin cell growth. It may be important to note that the effects of IGF-1 were more prominent in women than in men.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-10715\" src=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_03_091818-1-400x400.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_03_091818-1-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_03_091818-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_03_091818-1-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_03_091818-1.png 600w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_03_091818-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>DHEAS<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>DHEAS, or Dehydroepiandrosterone, is another hormone that has been shown to be correlated with increased acne. In an <a href=\"https:\/\/jamanetwork.com\/journals\/jamadermatology\/fullarticle\/393279\">Archives of Dermatology study<\/a>, higher levels of DHEAS were found in a larger number of women who had acne. It is speculated that DHEAS plays an influential role with IGF-1 and growth hormone.<\/p>\n<p>DHEAS may also increase levels of testosterone and DHT, which are other potent hormones. Theories suggest that increased levels of these androgens may cause acne lesions through a couple of ways.<\/p>\n<p>Increased acne may be due to increased production of these hormones in local skin areas. Paired with an increased sensitivity to these hormones, you may find yourself waking up with more acne. Of course, these factors are highly dependent on individual factors.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Insulin<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You are probably familiar with glycemic index, it measures how quickly certain foods increase blood sugar levels. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mendosa.com\/insulin_index.htm\">Insulin index<\/a> does the same for insulin. It measures how insulin levels increase when given a certain portion of food (approximately 240 calories). For one study, white bread was used as a reference food with an index value of 100. Here are insulin index values that were found for other common foods:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Eggs <strong>31<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Beef <strong>45<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>White rice <strong>79<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>White bread <strong>100<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Yogurt <strong>115<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As you can see, insulin levels skyrocket after eating yogurt, even more than white bread. It may be fair to note that they probably used commercial yogurt with added sugar. Therefore, the value may be somewhat lower for unflavored, sugar-free yogurt. Still, it is alarmingly high.<\/p>\n<p>So why is insulin bad? Like IGF-1, it can stimulate hormonal acne. But it also increases bioavailability of IGF-1.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Milk Allergies and Lactose Intolerance<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Some people are <em>allergic to milk<\/em>. Their immune system reacts to proteins in milk, usually casein, and treats them as invaders. Symptoms usually include rash and other skin problems. However, allergic reactions to milk do not directly cause acne lesions.<\/p>\n<p>Milk allergy also comes in a less severe form, known as <em>milk protein intolerance<\/em>. The problem is that common food allergy tests don\u2019t detect this. While milk protein intolerance triggers an immune response similar to milk allergies, no studies have shown that this intolerance causes acne.<\/p>\n<p><em>Lactose intolerance<\/em> has been speculated as a way that milk can possibly cause acne. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4586575\/\">Studies<\/a> typically report that lactose intolerance is associated with gut problems. These bacterial imbalances in the gut may be a cause of inflammation and oxidative stress, resulting in acne.<\/p>\n<p>For further information on this topic, I\u2019ve written a detailed explanation on how <a href=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/the-gut-skin-axis\/\">gut problems can cause acne<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>FAQ: Dairy Products and Acne<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3>Is it better to drink whole or skimmed milk?<\/h3>\n<p>Skim milk is associated with an increase in acne compared to whole milk. The reason for this is unclear. However, it may be due to a higher glycemic index with skim milk compared to whole milk. A high glycemic index can lead to increased inflammation and acne.<\/p>\n<h3>Is organic milk better for my skin?<\/h3>\n<p>Both organic milk and regular milk contain hormones that may cause inflammation and acne. However, organic milk does not contain added hormones. Switching from regular to organic milk may be an option to decrease acne for this reason.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-10705\" src=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_04_091818-1-400x400.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_04_091818-1-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_04_091818-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_04_091818-1-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_04_091818-1.png 600w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_04_091818-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Does raw milk cause acne?<\/h3>\n<p>Raw milk contains the same hormones found in regular milk. Therefore, raw milk can cause acne. Regular milk is raw milk that has undergone pasteurization. Pasteurization removes bacteria, enzymes, and some nutrients. It does not remove IGF-1, which is known to cause acne.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I eat cheese if I have acne?<\/h3>\n<p>While cheese may cause or worsen acne, it may be less of an effect compared with milk and ice cream. The reason for this is unclear. Regardless, all cheeses, including cottage cheese, still contains hormones that can increase inflammation.<\/p>\n<h3>Does greek yogurt cause acne?<\/h3>\n<p>Greek yogurt is considered a health food that may cause less acne compared to milk. This might be explained by probiotics found in yogurt that can decrease inflammation. However, it is important to note any added sugar content which can result in increased acne.<\/p>\n<h3>What about ice cream?<\/h3>\n<p>Ice cream has been found to be associated with acne. The cause is mainly attributed to high glycemic index of ice cream. A high glycemic index can increase levels of certain hormones such as IGF-1 which is associated with acne development.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-10706\" src=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_05_091818-1-400x400.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_05_091818-1-400x400.png 400w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_05_091818-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_05_091818-1-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_05_091818-1.png 600w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286802_MIlk-quote-images_05_091818-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>What about milk alternatives?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019ve read this far, you can see that there is ample evidence for milk causing acne.

It can\u2019t be said for sure, but here are some pointers:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-10712\" src=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286786_Milk-alternatives-infograph_091818-1-200x400.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286786_Milk-alternatives-infograph_091818-1-200x400.png 200w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286786_Milk-alternatives-infograph_091818-1-600x1200.png 600w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286786_Milk-alternatives-infograph_091818-1-768x1536.png 768w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286786_Milk-alternatives-infograph_091818-1-512x1024.png 512w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/286786_Milk-alternatives-infograph_091818-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>Milk alternatives such as almond, rice, coconut, and oat milk are unlikely to increase inflammation and acne. There are no direct studies to explain this. These alternatives do not contain the hormones found in milk that have been associated with increased acne. However, added sugar may be a potential concern. As mentioned previously, a higher glycemic index may increase or worsen acne.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">There is no credible evidence to show that goat or buffalo milk causes less acne compared to milk. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5579670\/\">According to one report<\/a>, goat\u2019s milk does not increase insulin levels as much as cow\u2019s milk. In this case, it could be better for your skin.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">If you think about it though, milk coming from a goat or a buffalo is still milk coming from an animal that produces hormones. While the amount of these hormones may differ, they still have a potential to cause acne.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">What about Soy? There\u2019s a lot of debate about soy. Some say soy decreases testosterone levels and has a feminizing effect in men. After looking at some studies, the hormonal effects of soy are weak or nonexistent in men (refer to this <a href=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/soy-and-acne\/\">detailed post about soy<\/a>). In women, however, regularly consuming soy has been shown to reduce estrogen levels which could aggravate the androgen\/estrogen imbalance that causes acne.<\/p>\n<p>Did I miss some dairy alternative? Please post to the comments below and I\u2019ll add it here.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Studies Linking Dairy Products to Acne<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>So far, we have discussed how acne is linked to hormones and dairy products. But what supporting evidence is there behind it?<\/p>\n<p>A recent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2072-6643\/10\/8\/1049\/htm\">meta analysis<\/a> in 2018 reported considerable evidence that consuming dairy is associated with increased acne.

This may be due to the higher amount of total milk consumed with skim milk. While studies may have had limitations with no definitive cause for increased acne, there was also a supporting link found between IGF-1 and acne.<\/p>\n<p>Another relatively recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4884775\/\">longitudinal study<\/a> found that acne may be associated with an overall high glycemic diet.

Either way, it may be a good idea to note whether other foods are causing a flare up in acne and then limiting their consumption as well.<\/p>\n<p>Two other studies evaluated milk and the incidence of acne in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/17083856\">teenage girls<\/a> and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/18194824\">teenage boys<\/a>. In both of these studies, they followed each group for 3 years. Each year they asked the participant to answer a food frequency questionnaire with questions such as how often they ate certain foods.<\/p>\n<p>Both studies found very similar results. Those who drank more than 2 servings of milk per day were 20% more likely to suffer from acne than those who drank less than 1 serving per week. Not exactly earth-shattering results, but this shows it\u2019s possible that milk and dairy products aggravate acne.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-10711\" src=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/285873_Milk_AcneGraphFrequency_091718-1-532x400.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"532\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/285873_Milk_AcneGraphFrequency_091718-1-532x400.png 532w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/285873_Milk_AcneGraphFrequency_091718-1-600x451.png 600w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/285873_Milk_AcneGraphFrequency_091718-1-768x577.png 768w, https:\/\/acneeinstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/285873_Milk_AcneGraphFrequency_091718-1.png 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 532px) 100vw, 532px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It is fair to suspect that these adolescent studies may <strong>understate the risk in adults<\/strong>.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/22386050\">An Italian study<\/a> performed in older subjects supports this.
