I have been vegan for 5 years now and recently I been getting bad painful spots around my jawline. I do eat healthy - occasionally I have a packet of crisp or dairy free chocolate.Do you think I am lacking something in my diet? I hate it as I am in my 40s and it really annoying.

Do you mean acne? I usually get acne along my jawline when my hormones are out of wack. This happens to me during stressful times. Are you stressed? Is there some other reason your hormons may be going crazy?

This could be caused by many things. A dermatologist can help to diagnose what's going on.

How about your oil content? When I get bad spots (I'm 30) its when I've had too much oil. Since I started eating HCLF vegan my skin has cleared up tremendously!
But I agree with others who have said hormones and stress as well! I just wanted to suggest to oil/fat idea in case you haven't considered it yet! :)
