Thanks Keith. I was recently on a raw foods health retreat (highly alkaline and no refined foods) and my flushing and very slight rosacea was mostly gone (even the dry sauna didn't make my skin reactive). When I eat foods that are more acidic (more stimulating), I get a few more flushes, but I am pretty happy right now.

Hi,
I noticed symptoms of rosacea after I started taking Nexium. After some coincidences in searching the internet, I now think that Nexium may have been the cause.

Thanks for your posts.
Keith

Hi there...thanks for reading my rosacea entry. The HCl seems to be going well, but it is a 3 month process according to Dr. Pizzorno. Also, I am doing so many other things that he recommends (omega-3s, pancreatic enzymes, no red meat and less meat, etc.). My program is mostly dietary versus anything topical, as I believe rosacea is a way of showing the skin as the weak link in a body that is imbalanced somehow. Some people have more problems with digestive ailments or with joints, etc.

I am avoiding sun and heat as much as possible though, as they are both definitely triggers for flushing and reddening of my poor over-reactive skin. :-)

Let me know if you have things that you try and that help your skin!

Kind regards, Cindy

Hi Cindy,
I just discovered your blog because I googled the words "yogurt" and "hypochlorhydria". Never know how you're gonna show up!! Anyhow, I've been scrolling through some of your posts. I'm a gal with Irish ancestry, gluten sensitivity, and (curses) rosacea! So how's the HCl thing going? What's your program for handling your rosacea? I've talked to my dermatologist, but all she can recommend is a cream that is only moderately effective.
