It’s a fact, we are not all equal when it comes to acne. But you can’t curse your family tree forever! What if you changed your eating habits instead? Focus on the foods that cause pimples.
Acne is a very common disease, which affects almost all adolescents and, according to studies*, 41 to 54% of women over 25 are affected. It can be caused by a combination of factors, including hormones, heredity and environment.
And if certain tips for preventing the appearance of pimples and having beautiful skin are effective, diet can also play a role in the occurrence of acne. Indeed, certain foods can promote sebum production, an oily substance that helps clog pores and promote the appearance of pimples. Ready to take notes?
Acne: what foods should you avoid to have beautiful skin?
Processed industrial foods, such as prepared meals, snacks and fast foods. These foods are often high in sugar, fat and calories, which can contribute to the appearance of acne. Foods high in saturated fats and trans fats, such as fried products. These fats can also promote the appearance of acne. Foods high in refined sugar, such as sodas, candies, cookies and cakes. Refined sugar promotes the production of insulin, a hormone that stimulates sebum production. Dairy products, such as milk, cheese and yogurt. Dairy products contain hormones that can stimulate sebum production. Foods rich in gluten, such as bread, pasta and cereals. Gluten can cause inflammation, which in turn can promote the appearance of acne.
By avoiding consuming these types of foods regularly, you put all the chances on your side to have beautiful skin. Bye bye acne, hello to perfect complexion! Note that if acne is severe or does not respond to local treatments, do not hesitate to consult a dermatologist.
