I didn’t expect keto to change my skin. A year into the diet, I was running my hands over my arms to admire the new muscles from strength training when I realized something astonishing—my lifelong keratosis pilaris was gone. No scrubs, no lotions, no elaborate routines. Just smooth skin for the first time since I was a teenager. My blood work shows lower inflammation than ever before, and somehow, that quiet shift seems to have rewritten the story of my skin. It feels like walking through ashes and finding wildflowers—an unexpected bloom where irritation used to live.
