|
If you have any health complications or are pregnant it is always best to ask your doctor or physician first before attempting any change in diet.
In 90% of acne patients food can be the main cause of acne. The remaining 10% is due to hormones (teenagers etc.)
Avoid the following foods (or at least eat less):
1. Fatty foods
Too much or too little fat alters sebum production (oil) greatly, causing acne. You can eat small amounts of fat. Fatty foods include French fries (chips) and other fried fatty foods.
2. Transfats (hydrogenated vegetable oil)
These include margarines, most cooking oils, burgers, packed foods, biscuits, cakes, crisps and crackers. Anything that is not natural is no good for the body or |

skin.
3. Refined and Cooked Carbohydrates
These are white flour (bread, pasta, biscuits and pastries), rice, crisps, chips and sugars (also read "Sugar and Acne").
4. Iodine

The largest source of iodine is found in iodized table salt. It is also found in oysters, lobster, shrimp, bread, spinach and milk. Iodine has been clinically proven to aggravate acne.
5. Yeast products
Yeast products include bread, beer, yeast extract, soya sauce, and mushrooms.
6. Coffee, tea and cola
These contain caffeine, which is a diuretic that dehydrates you. This is bad for the skin.
Coffee also promotes hormone production.
To overcome the dehydration problem, drink 1 extra glass (1+8) of water for every cup of coffee, tea, cola you drink. This will hydrate the body again.
