Book Reviews of Rosacea Diet: A Simple Method to Control Rosacea
Book Review: Everyone is different
Summary: 1 Stars
I have type 2 and 3 rosacea and read this book. I used the recommendations faithfully for only three weeks, because that is as long as I could stand my symptoms getting worse and worse. My lesions got bigger, and more itchy and weepy. I also had many other bad effects from the recommended diet, such as near constant gastrointestinal distress, headaches, skin problems starting to appear on my elbows, and the worst bout of PMS in years. That was some time ago.
The diet that has worked the best for me for my skin, with no bad side effects, was to reduce animal proteins in general, eliminate all dairy protein, and eat more fruits and vegetables and "plain" foods. My diet is now high in carbohydrates -- but low in processed foods and white flour. It is low in fat by American standards. This is pretty much opposite of what Brady Barrows prescribes. And none of this took "iron willpower" -- after a few weeks of avoiding the trigger foods, I no longer wanted them.
I have had only a small area of type 1 rosacea on one cheek now for over two years, and when I eat even better (practically eliminating white flour and animal foods, which I sometimes do for short periods), my one remaining lesion gets smoother. If I eat a lot of fatty foods or eggs/lean meat it tends to flare up. Caffeine has also been a trigger for me, so I limit myself to one or two cups of coffee a day and drink only caffeine-free sodas. I still take the precautions I always have, like protecting my face from hot shower water, steam from drinks, or cold air.
Some people have fruit and vegetable triggers, but I haven't found one yet. I thought I had a vegetable trigger because if I ate a lot of salads or broccoli it seemed to make my lesions break out more. However I finally discovered it was the dairy based dressings and cheese toppings that were probably doing it. I don't use those any more and have no problem with any vegetables, no matter how much I have.
Everyone is different. Try lots of different approaches, but give each one a good honest, 100% try for at least a week or two. If you go half-measures or "cheat" or don't try for long enough you won't really know. It is very much worth it when you find the right mix for you.
