Probiotics.
In some cases, the appearance of rashes may be associated with the state of the intestinal microflora. The imbalance of the microflora contributes to the appearance of inflammatory processes in the body and, as a consequence, acne on the face, chest and back. Probiotics reduce oxidative stress and fight inflammation. To maintain a normal digestive process, it is important that the diet includes foods such as pickled vegetables, dark chocolate.

Foods rich in zinc.
Zinc can help reduce acne and help get rid of scars as soon as possible, so it should be in your daily diet. Include boiled beef tongue, pumpkin and watermelon seeds, pine nuts and pecans in your diet. Oysters are also recommended because they contain a lot of zinc. But remember that oysters are an allergen.
-
Fish and Omega-3.
Most people have an excess of omega-6 fatty acids in their daily diet. Despite all its benefits, Omega-6 promotes inflammatory processes in internal organs and tissues. Therefore, with acne, it is not recommended to consume large amounts of foods containing Omega-6.
Balance your diet with omega-3 fatty acids. They have anti-inflammatory effects and prevent acne. Large amounts of omega-3s are found in fatty marine fish such as mackerel, as well as in sardines and cod liver. Among the plant foods, choose flax seeds, broccoli and Brussels sprouts.

Vegetables, greens and fresh juices.
Vegetable diet cleanses the body of toxins and keeps the skin beautiful. People with rashes are advised to include a lot of vegetables and greens in their diet. They contain beta-carotene, a provitamin that helps regulate oily skin naturally and is anti-inflammatory. A lot of beta-carotene is found in carrots, sea buckthorn, parsley and celery. With acne, it is also recommended to eat more dark berries (raspberries, blueberries, black currants). These berries contain many antioxidants that improve the condition of the skin.

Green tea.
This drink is a powerful antioxidant and effectively protects the body from the adverse effects of the environment. Green tea can be drunk during the day, both hot and cold. It is especially useful to brew different varieties of green tea. Packaged tea loses most of its useful properties.
If you have acne, it is also best to exclude the following foods:
- foods with a high glycemic index (GI).
These are “fast” carbohydrates that quickly increase blood glucose levels (bakery products, soda, etc.). Glucose increases insulin production, which in turn stimulates the production of the hormone testosterone. The GI of foods depends on several factors: the amount of fast carbs and fiber. The less sugar you consume and the more fiber, the better for you.
- dairy products and fermented milk (milk, kefir, yogurt, fermented milk, cheese, cottage cheese).
Anabolic steroids in these foods upset a person’s hormonal balance, which is also the cause of rashes.
- foods containing trans fats (harmful fatty acids), such as fast food and semi-finished products.
Eating such foods can change the composition and properties of sebum, making it denser.
- coffee.
When drinking coffee, the body produces the stress hormone cortisol, which also causes acne.
Nutrition is one of the most effective ways to fight rashes, aimed at improving the condition of the skin. In combination with Cleocin T Topical Solution and Clincitop Gel you will quickly notice the effect!
