Yeah, I thought that would be problematic as well. Turns out that calcium is plentiful in kale, broccoli, and sardines. I will occasionally have some cheese, if my kids are begging for pizza and I don't have a simple alternative.

Surprisingly, I've found that cutting dairy has surprisingly reduced any acne that I ever have. I'd read that acne is exacerbated in some folks by dairy. Turns out that that I was one of those people.

I can now put lotion on my face without breaking out all around my forehead. Definitely helpful in the dry winter weather, and in summer when using sunscreen.
