Subject: Does Eating Sugar Really Cause Acne?
When growing up you may have been told that eating sugar could cause acne, but where you ever really sure. It is now known that this was too simple, because sugar itself does not cause acne. It's an unhealthy diet and oily skin that actually does. Watch what you eat for clearer skin.
Key Takeaways:
- Sugar does not directly cause acne but it is bad for your skin and can exacerbate acne outbreaks.
- Insulin, created when the body processes sugar, breaks down collagen and ages the skin.
- Excess sugar can result in insulin resistance, which often manifests as blotchy skin and acne.
"The lower your consumption of sugar and other high-glycemic foods, the better your skin will look and feel."
