How Diet Affects Acne?
http://diet-acne.blogspot.com/2014/03/how-diet-affects-acne.html
No matter what your grandma says, there is no food that causes
acne. The foods that you are eating are not responsible for you having acne. It's true. Fried food doesn't cause acne, and neither do
carbonated soft drinks or chocolate. There are, of course, those that
disagree with this assessment.
Some "authorities" say that refined sugar contributes to the severity of an acne outbreak, and substituting honey or sugar substitutes can help to decrease the length and severity of the outbreak. There is basically no real scientific proof that I can find to confirm this theory, but substituting refined sugar with another sweetener is a healthy thing to do, whether it actually helps with the acne problem or not.
I have also found "experts" who say that the oil in all nuts and peanuts in particular should be totally avoided by those who suffer with acne. This includes avoiding peanut butter. (I thought that peanut butter was one of the four food groups:). Still, if there is any chance that it will help, I'd go that extra mile and avoid nuts during an acne outbreak.
Cow's milk according to some should also be avoided entirely by those who suffer from acne. Now this one does make a little sense to me. Cow's milk comes from cows that have just given birth to a calf. Their milk is loaded with progesterone. Progesterone is known to cause acne. Lowfat and no-fat milk has just as much progesterone in it as whole milk.
The fact is, though, NOT eating the wrong foods is of less importance than eating the right foods. The anti-acne diet that is recommended by most all dermatologists is high in salmon, halibut, tuna, sardines, fresh organically grown vegetables, and whole grains. Taking a daily multivitamin/multimineral supplement is a good idea, too.
