Hey @Orion you are eating grains, aren't you?

At least, in my experience, every time I eat grains rice, oats, etc, I always get oily skin. I am not sure about legumes, because I can't handle them.
I've found that white potatoes are the only starches that doesn't give me sebum or if does it is very minimal.
Saturated fat gives me oily skin too and PUFAs also.
Olive oil tends to be the least offender for some reason. Perhaps because it is more of a MUFA...? Not quite sure here.

And the effects happen right away: if I happen to have rice at lunch, by the end of the afternoon/at night I will have oily skin.
Whenever you are feeling like to, you could try one day not eating grains and see how would your skin respond: if less oily or same.

Of course, foods are not the culprit. But I wanted to share with you my experience.

Hey Latapy, My skin was still oily during a long Bruess fast and whether I eat grains or not. Manganese which can increase prolactin, will make skin much oilier when taken that day, its tied to minerals and hormones somehow. But it has much improved following the gboldeuv's ideals(fasting, electrolyte protocol, balancing by hairtest results).

Sorry, I didn't know that.
That's very good news then!
