Bad skin?
Maybe you should avoid white bread
Would you have thought that white bread could cause bad skin?
This is actually the case: an
above-average amount of refined carbohydrates such as those found in white bread, pasta or white rice
cause the blood sugar level to rise, as the Welt.de portal writes with reference to the dermatologist Frank Lipman.
This in turn would ensure that the bacteria in the intestine are unbalanced and thus promote inflammation in the body.
In the case of an overly acidic stomach, the intestines are also overwhelmed - in combination with a few digestive enzymes, pimples and redness on the skin can result.
Increased risk of acne from too much milk
Researchers have already analyzed the connection between drinking milk and the development of acne in various studies.
To bring some clarity to the matter, dermatologists working with Ru Dai from the First Hospital in Ningbo in the east Chinese province of Zhejiang have summarized the results of four cohort studies and nine cross-sectional studies in a meta-analysis.
The data from almost 72,000 test subjects have shown that
milk drinkers actually develop acne 16 percent more often
than people who do not drink milk.
The highest risk of acne is therefore among skimmed milk consumers (24 percent), followed by consumers of low-fat milk (14 percent) and whole milk drinkers (13 percent).
The amount of milk also makes a difference: If you drink more than one glass a day, you have a twelve percent higher risk of acne; if you only drink one glass, it is eight percent.
