This one’s pretty straight forward. 

While there’s a misconception that the oil from deep-fried food can clog pores and cause skin to break out even more, the truth is, deep-frying produces free radicals and cause inflammation. 

Another common cause of skin break outs, the hormones found in cow’s milk can sometimes spike the production of pimples. 

If you realise that dairy is causing you to break out but can’t live without milk in your coffee, try almond, rice or hemp milk instead. 

For some, gluten is said to cause inflammation and bloat both to their bodies and skin. 

In general, foods high in sugar breaks down the collagen production in skin causing skin to lose its elasticity and glow. 

Some people can be more prone to the phytoestrogen levels in soy-based products. These phytoestrogens are similar to our natural estrogen produced by our bodies and can cause hormone levels to spike, leading to acne and break outs.
