INPUT ARTICLE: Article: . Avoid meat that contains hormones and similar substances which could throw your hormones out of balance, causing acne. Instead, eat plenty of fiber, fresh vegetables and fruits. Foods rich in vitamin A, C, E, and zinc can help reduce the severity of acne through the nutrients' anti-inflammatory properties. Some good sources of these vitamins include: Sweet red peppers Kale Spinach Amaranth Leaves Turnip Greens Sweet Potato (Yams) Pumpkin Butternut Squash Mangoes Grapefruit Cantaloupe Studies show that oral zinc therapy can help heal acne. Zinc is an essential trace mineral with antioxidant properties. This helps protect cells in the body from damage caused by bacteria and viruses. It's common to have slightly low levels of zinc, but taking a multivitamin and eating a healthy diet should give you all the zinc you need. While you can take supplements, the best dietary sources of zinc are: Oysters, shrimp, crab, and shellfish Red meats Poultry Cheese Beans Sunflower seeds Pumpkin Tofu Miso Mushrooms Cooked greens. Easily absorbed zinc: zinc picolinate, zinc citrate, zinc acetate, zinc glycerate, and zinc monomethionine. If zinc sulfate causes stomach irritation, you can try another form, such as zinc citrate. According to studies, you might have low levels of vitamin A if you have severe acne. Vitamin A is an anti-inflammatory substance that balances your hormones and might help reduce oil production. You can increase your vitamin A intake by eating a healthy diet and avoiding unhealthy fats like margarine, hydrogenated oils, and processed food. Vitamin A is found mostly in carrots, green leafy vegetables, and yellow or orange fruits. If you take a supplement, the recommended daily dose is 10,000 to 25,000 IU (international units). High doses of Vitamin A can have toxic side-effects, including birth defects, so watch how much you're getting. Vitamin C can improve the rate of healing. It does this in part by helping to make collagen, an important protein used to repair skin tissue, cartilage, blood vessels and heal wounds. You can take 2 to 3 doses of Vitamin C for a total of 500 mg a day. You can also add vitamin C-rich foods to your daily diet. Good natural sources of vitamin C are: Sweet red or green peppers Citrus fruit such as oranges, pomelo, grapefruit, limes or non-concentrated citrus juices. Spinach, broccoli and brussel sprouts Strawberries and raspberries Tomatoes . Drinking green tea is not directly linked with preventing acne. But, it contains many antioxidants that show anti-aging effects and protect the skin. These can help your skin look fresher and younger. To make green tea, steep 2-3 g of green tea leaves in one cup of warm water (80-85C) for 35 minutes. Green tea can be taken two to three times daily. Green tea may also have anti-inflammatory effects that reduce the risk of cancer. Some research shows that green tea is especially useful in protecting skin from harmful UV radiation.

SUMMARY: Eat a healthy diet Take zinc. Take more vitamin A. Get more Vitamin C. Drink green tea

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Pour 12 tablespoons (1530mL) of oil into your skillet and place it on the cooktop over medium heat until the oil just begins to shimmer. Cut the Spam into 1in (2.5cm) slices and fry them for 2-3 minutes, then flip them and let them cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Afterwards, they'll have a perfect crusty exterior and a soft, meaty center. Be careful not to burn your Spam. The meat product is precooked, so it won't need very long. Frying Spam is one of the best ways to prepare it if you've never eaten it before and you're apprehensive about the texture. Set your oven to 425450F (218232C) and allow it to begin preheating. While the oven is warming up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the slices of Spam on top, leaving about 1 inch (2.5cm) of space between each. Bake the Spam for 10-12 minutes, or until it starts to brown around the edges. If you're watching your waistline, bake your Spam slices on a grill pan or wire rack to drain off some of the excess fat. Preheat your grill and wait for it to get nice and hot. Then, distribute your sliced Spam evenly across the grill top and cook it for 1-2 minutes. Once the slices are heated through on their first side, flip them over and give them 1-2 more minutes, or until they reach the desired doneness. You'll know your Spam is ready to come off the grill when it's slightly darker in color and criss-crossed with perfect grill marks. Top each slice with a juicy pineapple ring to lend some complimentary sweetness. Cut the Spam into slices or strips and pop them in the microwave for 30-60 seconds at a time. In just a couple minutes, you'll have a hot, satisfying meal that pairs easily with any number of other foods. Don't forget to remove the Spam from its can before putting it in the microwave. One of the best things about Spam is that it comes fully cooked, which means it's not strictly necessary to cook it at all. This can be a major plus if the power goes out, you find yourself without the proper cookware, or you're just looking for something quick, easy, and filling to wolf down. Bring a few cans of Spam along with you on your next all-day hike or camping trip. Since it doesn't require heating, it makes a perfect high-protein snack to gobble down on the go. Keep in mind that when eaten straight from the can, Spam has a softer, gelatinous texture which many people find unappetizing.

SUMMARY: Fry your Spam in a skillet to give it a crisp finish. Bake your Spam in the oven to reduce its fat and sodium content. Throw Spam on the grill for a mouth-watering charbroiled flavor. Microwave single servings of Spam for 1-2 minutes. Eat Spam right out of the can.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Copy paper is extremely common, cheap, and easy to obtain. If you're fine with using paper that isn't blank, you can often get large amounts of used paper for free. The only thing keeping printer paper from being "origami paper" is the fact that it is rectangular, not square. You will need to trim some away for proper origami paper. Properly folding the printer paper will allow you to cut it into a perfect square without using a ruler. Take the top right corner and fold it down until it touches the left edge of your paper. The entire top edge of your paper should now be even with the left side. Make a crisp crease along the fold. Your paper should now look like a sailboat with a folded right triangle "sail" sitting on top of a single-layer rectangle. Take the point in the top left corner and fold it down so it is equal with both the left side and the base of the triangle. Your paper should now look similar to a house. The top will now be a right triangle with a centered point and the bottom section a rectangle. Take the rectangle at the bottom and fold it behind the triangle. Make a sharp crease along the edge. Now you can unfold the triangle. This will remove the excess paper. Unfold the paper completely. Use a pair of scissors to cut off the bottom rectangular flap. Use the crease to guide you, and try to cut as straight of a line as possible. Now you should have a square piece of paper that you can use for your origami practice. You may want to use a hard, flat object to smooth the paper so that it's easier to work with when you are folding your origami. Try putting it inside a thick textbook for a day or two.

SUMMARY:
Gather normal copy or printer paper. Make your first fold. Make your second fold. Fold the bottom flap. Cut along the bottom crease with a pair of scissors. Unfold your paper completely.
