Anyone else start to break out (acne) on their face/anywhere else after starting to use whey protein? I'm 21, have had good skin my whole life, then started to break out around the time I started using it.

    I've been using whey for a while and find it hasn't done anything for my acne. I have acne vulgaris (the kind that can stay with you for life!!)

    Might I suggest you try another kind of protein such as hemp and see what sort of effects you'd get from it?
