​What is acne? Is it only caused by foods and drinks?


Who doesn’t want a healthy and flawless skin, but the increasing pollutants, dirt in the environment, excessive use of chemical based cosmetics and unhealthy food habits may often lead to awful breakouts on the skin and lead to acne.

​How coffee triggers acne and breakouts?


As per experts, excessive intake of coffee may trigger breakouts and acne. However, acne and pimples are majorly caused due to hormonal imbalance, which is often triggered by bad lifestyle and unhealthy eating habits. This is the reason why doctors and experts suggest avoiding oily, sugary, spicy and processed foods that increase the heat in the body causing acne. The reason why coffee may induce acne is due to the amalgamation of milk, caffeine rich coffee, sugar and butter, which together generates heat in the body and may lead to breakouts. Here’s an easy way to fix breakouts naturally by tweaking the diet.

4/4

​Can diet heal acne?


Coffee is a natural diuretic and an excessive intake of coffee paired with oily and junk food may lead to dehydration, which may cause breakouts. Also excessive coffee intake may result in flushing out essential vitamins and water soluble minerals causing dehydration and the only way to reverse this condition is by hydrating the body and tweaking the diet. You may switch your love for coffee with caffeine free drinks like green tea, homemade smoothies and shakes, chamomile tea, mint tea and fennel tea. Including fruits and berries can also help in improving skin health. Lastly, drinking water is the best natural fix to treat skin breakouts.
