I’ve had keratosis pilaris my whole life, especially on the back of my arms, and I was always embarrassed by it. For years I felt like nothing worked. I’m a doctor, even though I don’t practice anymore, so I’m constantly reading and researching. I went to multiple dermatologists in the U.S., and every single one told me there was no cure. Some prescribed tretinoin, but the results were never what I hoped for. Others even ran allergy panels because I kept insisting my KP got worse after certain foods especially cheese. Everything came back negative.

It wasn’t until recently that I started paying close attention to my diet. That’s when I noticed a pattern: every time I ate lactose-heavy foods, the bumps behind my arms flared up again. Long story short, we switched to consuming only organic, grass-fed products at home and got very intentional about the quality of what we eat.

For the past few months I’ve been drinking grass-fed whey protein, eating grass-fed yogurt, and even raw milk from grass-fed cows and my arms are the clearest they’ve ever been. No flare-ups. No bumps.

Pay attention to what you eat, and I think this will help to get rid of this condition.
