A low-glycemic-load diet improves symptoms in acne vulgaris patients: a randomized controlled trialRobyn N Smith
School of Applied Sciences, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia
Am J Clin Nutr 86:107-15. 2007..Although the pathogenesis of acne is currently unknown, recent epidemiologic studies of non-Westernized populations suggest that dietary factors, including the glycemic load, may be involved...
The effect of a low glycemic load diet on acne vulgaris and the fatty acid composition of skin surface triglyceridesRobyn N Smith
School of Applied Sciences, RMIT University, GPO Box 2476V, Melbourne, Victoria 3001, Australia
J Dermatol Sci 50:41-52. 2008..Dietary factors have long been implicated in acne pathogenesis. It has recently been hypothesized that low glycemic load diets may influence sebum production based on the beneficial endocrine effects of these diets...
A pilot study to determine the short-term effects of a low glycemic load diet on hormonal markers of acne: a nonrandomized, parallel, controlled feeding trialRobyn Smith
School of Applied Sciences, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia
Mol Nutr Food Res 52:718-26. 2008..These results suggest that increases in dietary glycemic load may augment the biological activity of sex hormones and IGF-I, suggesting that these diets may aggravate potential factors involved in acne development...
The effect of a high-protein, low glycemic-load diet versus a conventional, high glycemic-load diet on biochemical parameters associated with acne vulgaris: a randomized, investigator-masked, controlled trialRobyn N Smith
School of Applied Sciences, RMIT University, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
J Am Acad Dermatol 57:247-56. 2007..No previous study has sought to examine the influence of dietary composition on acne vulgaris...
