Dietary Triggers - Dairy

Skip dairy, one of the biggest acne triggers

Cheese, milk, ice cream, sour cream, Greek yogurt, protein powders that contain whey and/or casein, and dairyrich coffee drinks.

Dairy is linked to acne, allergies, eczema, psoriasis, asthma, weight gain, digestive problems, water retention, high blood pressure, bloating, puffy eyes, and a ton of other health problems.

High energy foods like sugar and dairy cause increased levels of insulin, IGF-1 hormone, and mTOR, which is an enzyme. mTOR, in turn, stimulates keratin, inflammation, and sebum production all of which contribute to acne

Dairy also causes heavy periods and bleeding for some, A1-casein converts in the gut to the inflammatory peptide casomorphin, or BCM7 which in turn, can stimulate inflammatory cytokines, histamine, and mast cells, which leads to menstrual pain and heaving bleeding, PMS and PMDD When you stop eating sugar and milk, your skin should clear within 3-4 months
