Assuming they went by empirical evidence and had indeed eliminated all other supplements and made no changes to daily dietary or personal hygiene habits, then I suppose it is possible. Consider also that C comes in several forms from various manufacturers, some of which are claimed to have impurities. See articles on brinkzone.com IP: Logged |

Never heard of Creatine giving someone acne. Probably came from increased weightlifting during creatine cycle. (Higher testosterone levels when you lift frequently) IP: Logged |

I know this isn't very helpful in answering your question, but I found that by taking guggul extract my acne has cleared up tremedously in just a few days. You can get guggul by taking Metabolic Thyrolean by Prolab, or from GuggulBolic by Syntrax. I don't know, but maybe it might work for you too. Hope that helps some. IP: Logged |

Agreed with Grosso. If you load it you can end up with a case of the runs. I have seen someone who came down with a forehead rash when on Creatine. But that was not all he was on. You have to eliminate all variables, which is next to impossible, to say that Creatine will cause acne. There are no data to prove otherwise. Platinum IP: Logged |

I'm just going on personal experience here. But everytime I start a cycle of creatine within a few days my back breaks out in zits. They continue through until I'm off from creatine for like 2-3 weeks and my back goes back to normal. My face never breaks out but my back does and now on my shoulder caps. Yes I and clean myself properly. IP: Logged |

I dont see anyway cre can cause zits, cause it doens't up your testosterone or nandrolone. But, some people on these posts say that it has, poor bastards. IP: Logged |
