Can consuming dairy really give you acne?
Manage episode 482551861 series 2634716
You might've heard a friend complaining about their latest break-out and swearing off dairy products as a result. Or that friend might be you.

Norman and Tegan explore whether consuming dairy can cause acne, and if so, how a glass of milk might lead to pimples.
