Can diet really affect acne?

I love chocolate but I notice how my acne multiplies. Sometimes we don't notice how food we ate affects our skin. Now I drink more lemon water which they say helps clearing skin. Can you reco some foods that helped you better your skin? And which food to avoid. Thank you in advance!

It highly varies from person to person but generally sugar, dairy and fatty foods are common triggers. Unless like with chocolate you can clearly tell it's a trigger for you, you don't have to avoid things - just make sure to eat a varied nutritious diet and drink lots of water πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘Œ

Scientifically, no. There's a video that LabMuffin did a month ago about this but there is no hard definitive proof that diet affects your skin. But on the other hand I feel like what you put in your body will probably affect your skin, somehow. It's a very nuanced topic and I don't feel like you should cut things out of your diet just for the sake of better looking skin. But maybe just ingest "healthier" foods if you believe diet affects your skin. Link to the video: https://youtu.be/iVUL0bk9TiU

It's quite a complicated topic, but some people actually say their diet and food intolerance were related to diet. I had lots of acne and changing food due to coeliac disease diagnosis helped me clean my skin a bit - I stopped eating processed food. But there's also other problem - hormones, I recommend checking how your skin and diet look like before period, because many women deal with chocolate and chips cravings before period and their skin also gets worse due to hormones, so it's not strictly diet problem. Green tea is great for skin, I took pansy tea and supplements before (supplements didn't really help me), but green tea - I love it.

My husband is a coeliac and oddly enough, his skin doesn't show any reactions to it even though he's extremely reactive to gluten otherwise. He even worked at a bakery when he was younger - so lots of physical contact. Chocolate on the other hand... 😱 I think diet and skin relationship is just generally not studied enough 🧐
