[Personal] Is anyone else inadvertently becoming extremely healthy from trying to clear up their skin?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
After reading through simpleskincarescience and this subreddit almost religiously I seem to have accidentally improved every aspect of my health... except for my skin. FML.I read on simpleskincarescience about the importance of probiotics for skin health. I think to myself, hmm you always have digestion issues, maybe that's the reason for your acne! So I start taking probiotics, which aren't doing anything for my skin, but did, in fact, get rid of most of my digestive issues.I started taking a multivitamin 4x a day (the recommended dose) for Vit A and D which I read is good for your skin. I take Omega3 supplements with EPA and DHA which I also read is good for your skin. I take 5mg of collagen powder with my protein shake after my workout (... I also started working out 3x a week bc I think I have hormonal acne and it's supposed to help regulate hormones or some shit) because it's supposed to help strengthen your skin. I never really have dairy (see: aforementioned digestion issues) but I now watch my macros and have eliminated refined sugars from my diet. I drink 6-8 glasses of water a day to try to keep my skin hydrated.The result? I have more energy, I'm stronger, my booty is Growing, my joint pain is better....... but my skin is still shite. FML.
