Nuts - Acne?

Post by WaiWay »

Why is it that raw nuts give some people acne? Are the proteins not clean? Or is it simply because the there is a too much protein in them?

Nuts are designed (by nature) to last very long (years),
protected by their hard shell.
Protein get 'dirty' due to the influence of heat, creating new compounds,
but this process also happens naturally, though very, very slowly.
So slowly, that most foods have gone bad way before,
but as nuts can last so long, they may contain 'dirty' proteins naturally.
Probably not of the same nature as those in cooked foods,
but still they may cause acne.
