Skin problems have not always been as common as they are now; the prevalence of these dermatological diseases has increased decade after decade as our diet has worsened, while societies with traditional diets have not seen the same increase. In general, skin diseases such as dermatosis, chicken skin and acne are due to a hormonal problem or a systemic inflammation problem, both mediated by diet.
It is likely that many of us, to control all these problems, use certain hygiene, hydration and repair routines, and may even use a cortisone cream for dermatitis or a cream with a mild antibiotic to cure the local infection in pimples. It is not a bad strategy to take care of the skin locally, because some factors such as pollution or stress, which can also worsen our skin, are intrinsic to urban life. But treating the skin without taking care of the diet is like treating an infection only with aspirin to reduce fever, but not using antibiotics.
Basically, systemic inflammation is a way of saying that our body is running at forced marches, with the immune system stressed, which ultimately affects our skin. Certain foods are inflammatory and others are anti-inflammatory, but you also have to be careful with food intolerances. The hormonal issue, on the other hand, can cause confusion. Certainly, different hormonal milestones such as puberty, menopause or menstrual cycles are associated with a greater amount of pimples, but these hormones do not generally cause skin problems if they are not amplified by other hormones related to diet.
Since the topic is a bit complex and not everyone will be interested in knowing the causes, here are some brief nutritional tips to avoid acne and other skin problems:
Especially in the case of dermatosis or chicken skin, check that you do not have an intolerance or sensitivity to gluten or lactose. The idea is to not eat milk or cereals for a month.
Foods such as probiotics or those rich in omega-3 are anti-inflammatory. So are some foods rich in antioxidants, such as coffee or green tea (both in the long term) and of course fruits and vegetables. On the other hand, it is advisable to avoid harmful fats that cause inflammation: trans fats and seed fats (soy, canola, sunflower oil), rich in omega-6.
Milk or red meat can worsen severe acne cases due to their influence on androgen hormones.
It is key to keep insulin in check. To do this, avoid sugar and refined flours and pastas at all costs, and if you don’t notice improvement, also limit whole grains. Again, the best are fruits and vegetables.
