Eating
the right kind of food is what can give you a strong immune system and
help you prevent sickness and all kinds of skin blemishes including
acne.
Here are some of the foods that can help you overcome the acne on your
face or throughout your body.
Protein
Eating excess meat is harmful to your health. Eating too much meat,
more than 2-4 ounces per day, has been found to contribute to narrowing
of the arteries.
If you do physical labor and are involved in a lot of movement in your
work, then you should eat more than 2-4 ounces of protein per day. Just
make sure that the meat has a minimum of additives and preservatives.
Remember, meat is high in saturated fat, which blocks the activity of
EPA and DHA, which produce prostaglandin and control the activity of
your hormones.
Meat and bread is a big contributor to creating constipation. Meat is
difficult to digest and many times it will get into the colon partial
digested. This condition benefits the bad bacteria and allows them to
dominate the colon and create constipation.
Because meat and bread have little fiber, they move slowly in the
colon, which leads to constipation and eventually to some type of colon
inflammation.
Bad bacteria, decaying meat and other undigested food contribute to the
build up of toxic matter in the colon. This is the type of condition
you should try to avoid, if you have acne. You need fecal matter in the
colon to move regularly and out the rectum, otherwise, toxic matter
will build up and end up in your blood stream
Here are the grains you should be eating:
* Brown rice - contain many amino acids that help rebuild skin tissue
* Whole grains - contain folic acid, magnesium, and vitamin E, B
vitamins, minerals, and fiber
* Oats - use them in the morning with honey or raisins. Oats have an
anti-inflammatory effect on the skin and help to keep you regular.
Seeds and nuts
* Almonds - Almonds contain protein, the B vitamins, calcium, iron,
potassium, magnesium, and phosphorus. Use them as a snack. These small
nuts help to build muscles and tissue.
* Flax seeds - These seeds are known for containing plenty of omega 3
oil, an essential oil for life. They also contain fiber when used
ground up and put into smoothies. Omega 3 is also an anti-inflammatory
oil, which is good for acne.
* Pecans - This is one of the good nuts to eat. It contains Vitamin A,
B's, C, calcium, iron, phosphorus, and potassium. Use them as a snack.
* Pine nuts - these nuts also one of the best to eat. They contain
vitamin A, C, B's, protein and iron.
* Sesame seeds - They are high in calcium, phosphorus, and potassium.
They are helpful in relieving various skin diseases such as acne by
reducing the swelling.
* Sunflower seeds - These seeds should be used as a snack. They are
high in protein, calcium and vitamin A. They provide nutrients for
building the whole body and are good for dry skin.
All of these nuts and seeds should be eaten raw. Heating and other
processing will kill the life force of the nut or seed and also reduce
the quantity of the vitamins and minerals.
Eat these nuts and seeds as snacks. Sesame seeds, sunflower, and flax
seeds can be put directly into your blender as you make your smoothies.
