Acnes are a very problem of every individual, especially teenagers. And I do beleive that what we eat has a big impact on our skin. If you've always believed chocolate and oily foods cause acne, it's finally time to put that myth to rest. Foods that spike your blood sugar levels can also push your body into making extra insulin, which, she adds, increases the production of cortisol. In general, cortisol acts as our body's immediate source of energy.
Fishes
Fish is a great source of essential fatty acids like omega-3 and omega-6. These acids help reduce inflammation in our bodies that can trigger cells to clog pores and potentially cause acne. Wood recommends eating more salmon, mackerel and sardines to fight blemishes.
Nuts
Deficiencies in minerals such as zinc and selenium have been linked to acne in some sufferers. Most nuts contain selenium, vitamin E, copper, magnesium, manganese, potassium, calcium and iron, which are all essential for healthy skin.
Brown Rice
Brown rice is a rich source of vitamin B, protein, magnesium, and several antioxidants, Wood says. For acne, vitamin B acts as our skin's stress fighter, which will help regulate hormones levels and prevent the likelihood of breakouts.
Garlic
Garlic is another superfood that helps fight inflammation. Garlic is full of a naturally occurring chemical called allicin, which kills off many harmful bacteria and viruses your body might be fighting.
Broccoli
Broccoli is the perfect skin clearing food. It contains health building properties like vitamins A, B complex, C, E, and K. These antioxidants fight radical damage which will assist with the luminosity of your skin.
