There is no love sincerer than the love of food.
George Bernard Shaw

The idea of proper nutrition is actively promoted in the media. Everyone decides to stick to it or not, but sometimes the body signals a person that it is worth reconsidering their diet. Signs of malnutrition include skin problems: dryness, inflammation, acne, etc.

Abuse of what products leads to deterioration of the skin?

Sausages, sausages, frankfurters. All types of processed meat can cause acne and wrinkles. Sausages contain a large amount of flavors, preservatives and salt. Salt leads to dry skin and interferes with the production of natural collagen.

In cheap varieties of processed meat, natural fat is often replaced with palm oil, the use of which in large quantities leads to obesity and the development of chronic diseases.

Nutritionists recommend reducing the consumption of sausages to 50 grams per day.

Yogurt with additives. Fermented milk products are useful, but most often it is in yogurt that various flavors, sugar, dyes and preservatives are added to increase the shelf life. Such an “improved” fermented milk drink affects the appearance of inflammation on the skin.

Whole milk. Research has established a link between teenage acne and milk consumption. Milk increases the level of insulin, which in turn stimulates the activity of the sebaceous glands.

French fries and any other foods cooked in large amounts of oil are harmful to the skin. During frying, the oil oxidizes and releases substances toxic to the body. Frequent consumption of fried foods can cause early skin aging.

Carbonated drinks are a storehouse of a large amount of sugar, which stimulates the work of the sebaceous glands, phosphates. They, in turn, damage the collagen of the skin, which leads to a loss of elasticity, as well as simple carbohydrates (glucose, sucrose, etc.), which turn into fat very quickly. Carbonated drinks also slow down the metabolism.

Caffeine is found not only in coffee, but also in green and black tea. Caffeine triggers the production of cortisol, which in turn leads to dehydration and dry skin. If you do not drink coffee and tea in liters, then these drinks will not become a threat to the skin.

Alcohol. Regular consumption of alcoholic beverages affects the amount of moisture in the skin, worsens the condition of the capillaries, destroys the walls of blood vessels. In addition, studies show that alcohol increases the risk of developing rosacea (a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by reddening of the face).

Alcohol mixed with carbonated drink or juice will spike your blood sugar levels.

Smoothies and fruit juices in large quantities can harm beauty. The condition of our skin depends on the intestinal microflora. As a result of the processing of fruits and vegetables, they lose the fiber necessary for the human body.

What's more, a glass of smoothie can hold a much larger amount of fruit that a person can eat at a time. As a result, an excess of fructose enters the body, which negatively affects the condition of the skin.

The ideal option would be to eat vegetables and fruits whole, rather than churning them with a blender.

Seafood contains a large amount of nutrients and vitamins, but in some cases, this is what becomes a problem. Shrimps, mussels and other shellfish are rich in iodine, which clogs pores. Seafood is also one of the strongest allergens.

To avoid skin problems, it is necessary to eat seafood in moderation and give preference to fish containing Omega-3 fatty acids.
