We all know that a healthy diet loaded with vitamins and nutrients can be great for promoting skin health. On the other hand, here’s a short list of foods and ingredients that can wreak havoc on our skin—so it’s best to avoid eating them.
Alcohol
Drinking a glass of wine every now and then won’t do any harm, but drinking too much alcohol can dehydrate your skin and cause inflammation.
Sugar
It’s a well-known fact that processed sugar has many negative effects on our health and promoting inflammation is only one of them. Consuming too much sugar can dehydrate your skin, cause acne, and aging of the skin.
Fried Foods
Even though we all love eating deep-fried food every once in a while because it’s delicious, don’t make this a habit. Deep-fried foods are loaded with trans fats and can also ruin your skin if eaten too often.
Salty Snacks
Eating snacks that contain too much salt such as chips or popcorn could also be damaging your skin if you eat them often. Too much salt can also cause inflammation and dehydrate your body, so it’s best to avoid eating salty food if you want to improve your skin health.
