Most solutions that are recommended for acne are surface level and temporary, and do not address its root cause. At the end of the day, what counts the most is how well we nourish our bodies. Our diet is the key to unlocking the secret to clear, glowing skin.
Follow the following steps to achieve the clear skin you’ve always wanted!
1. Low Glycemic Foods
Several recent studies show that eating a low-glycemic, or basic sugar-free, diet can help prevent and treat acne. In one study, researchers discovered that adopting a low-glycemic load and high-protein diet for 12 weeks might result in considerable acne improvement.

2. Ginger
Ginger has proven to be beneficial for a plethora of health issues, including acne. Include ginger in your diet in any way you can! Ginger teas are a delicious staple in most Indian households, so it should be easy to make them a staple in your diet as well!
3. Antioxidants and Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Omega-3 fatty acids are present in a variety of plants and animal protein sources, including fish and eggs. Antioxidants are molecules that protect the body from harmful poisons. Omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants are known to work together to decrease inflammation.
Studies have found a link between an increase in omega-3 and antioxidant consumption and a reduction in acne.
4. Vitamin C and Vitamin A
Topical treatments that include these vitamins have flooded the market. If they are so beneficial for skin when applied topically, imagine how much more they could help when consumed. Citrus fruits like oranges and lemons are the most convenient sources of vitamin C. For vitamin A, carrots are a great option as they offer a myriad of other health benefits besides helping you achieve clear skin.
