The food we eat corresponds to our health and says a lot about our skin. Certain foods can rapidly raise blood sugar levels and further encourage the sebaceous glands to produce more oil. This can increase the risk of acne. Some common foods with high glycaemic index and those having the potential to worsen acne include:
White rice
White bread
Sugars
Potatoes
Sweetened cold drinks
Pasta
Chocolates
Milk and ice-cream.
