Old Wives Tales..does chocolate give you pimples?

Tuesday, 24 July 2012 07:12

chocies Wave FM’s Hot Breakfast Crew of Jade, Travis & Greg have a promotional photo shoot today but one of the team has an issue. 

Jade & Greg are cherry ripe but Travis has a pimple and he thinks it’s from eating too much chocolate on the weekend.  It’s so bad he may have to use some of Jade’s makeup to cover the area. 

Is the link between chocolate and pimples an old wives tale? 

According to Listverse – Chocolate causing acne comes in at number 8 on the list of top 10 Old Wives tales debunked.  It says:

“There is actually not an iota of evidence to support this tale – no food type (not just chocolate) can cause acne or bad skin. Needless to say, eating too much chocolate or sugary food is unhealthy for the body, but it will not cause skin problems. Acne is actually caused by changes in the lower layers of the skin surrounding hair follicles.”

Travis doesn’t agree and still believes the chocolate is to blame! What are some classic Old Wives Tales you were brought up with?
