Washing your face regularly is not the only thing you should do to have healthy and glowing skin. The food you eat also plays a major role in the state of your skin. To help you steer clear of bad food, here’s a list of 5 of the worst foods for your skin.

Dairy:
Yes, milk is good for your bones but it isn’t as good for your skin. According to many studies, the blemishes on your face are connected to the amount of dairy you consume. “Milk products — especially cow’s milk — cause a spike in blood sugar and later insulin growth factor that may cause more [breakouts],” said Dr. Yoram Harth, Board Certified Dermatologist.

Luckily, there are now many milk alternatives to choose from that will hopefully combat those blemishes and keep your skin looking healthy.

Alcohol:
Alcohol has many negative effects on people and bad skin is one of those effects. While red wine contains antioxidants that are good for you, too many glasses can give you the opposite effects. According to Dr. Harth, “Red wine contains resveratrol, an antioxidant that is good for the skin. Any more than one glass per night, however, and you could be putting your skin at risk.”
