How Certain Foods Can Worsen Your Acne :

When you have acne, four main changes happen in the skin, including increased sebum (or oil) production; clogging of pores by excess skin; bacterial overgrowth, and general inflammation caused by any number of sources.

Adult women are more prone to acne than adult men, which could be driven in part by hormones. There is a link to diet, as well: “Theoretically, any food that promotes inflammation can make acne worse,” Robinson says. Start first with high glycemic foods. These are foods that cause a spike in blood sugar levels after you eat like white bread, rice, cookies and cakes. “High glycemic index foods increase insulin and other things in the body that lead to increased skin inflammation and increased oil production,” says Rajani Katta, M.D., dermatologist and author of Glow: The Dermatologist’s Guide to a Whole Foods Younger Skin Diet who serves on the voluntary clinical faculty of Baylor College of Medicine and the McGovern Medical School at the University of Texas in Houston. Studies show that after people follow a 12-week diet with a low glycemic load, a measure that’s obtained by multiplying the quality of a food’s carbohydrate by the amount of carbohydrates in one serving of that food, oil glands get smaller. Dairy and whey products can also drive acne by promoting inflammation, even if you aren't lactose intolerant. There are studies with bodybuilders that reveal that those athletes taking whey protein supplements developed acne. Here’s the kicker: “In some cases, although they haven’t responded to acne medications, their skin improves when they stop taking whey protein,” Katta says. So if you're prone to breakouts, stay away from whey. Why might dairy be damaging to skin? “By increasing the production of sebum in the hair follicle, dairy and whey contribute to worsening acne,” Robinson says. 

So, Is Sugar Bad For Your Skin? 

When we ingest too much refined sugar (sugar found in sweets, soda, breads and many pre-packaged foods), we cause an insulin spike in our bodies. That spike of insulin causes inflammation, which in turn creates chronic stomach issues, joint problems and SKIN ISSUES! Reducing sugar intake by two-thirds decreases inflammatory acne lesions and redness by as early as six days.
