Does eating sugary foods and candy cause acne?

I heard about it in a magizine so I was just wondering. Thanks.Does eating sugary foods and candy cause acne?
Yes. It causes Candida induced acne.





The tricky part about acne is that the problem can


actually become worse if you overmedicate. That's


because acne medication can overdry the skin, causing


a boost in your skin's Sebum (oil) production. This


results in...you guessed it - more acne.





So what's the long term solution? Find gentler


solutions or even natural acne cures that won't


shock your body into more breakouts.





Here's what I recommend...





Glycerin based facewash:


Glycerin is gentler and will balance the


pH levels in your skin.





Antibacterial Soap:


For body acne, try using an antibacterial soap


to slowly dry out the skin. If your skin gets too dry,


switch to a moisterizing soap like Dove to


counterbalance the effect.





Don't Overwash:


Wash your face only 2 times a day max and gently


pat dry with a towel.





Moisterize:


Use a gentle face moisterizer if the glycerin based


face wash drys you out too much. I like using


Aveeno moisterizers personally.





Change Your Diet:


Eat almonds, fiber, drink lots of water and avoid


excess sugar intake. Food really does make a difference.


This is because the food you put into your body has a


direct effect on your Sebum (oil) production. By eating


the right foods, you'll minimize oily skin, thereby


preventing breakouts.





Egg Whites:


If acne medication isn't working or causing new breakouts,


try applying egg whites to the pimples at night before bed.


This natural remedy works by gently drying out the clogged


pores and clearing up the pimple.





Oatmeal Masks:


One of my favorite natural skin conditioners is wearing an


';oatmeal mask';. The oatmeal with smooth your skin while


simultaneously absorb toxins and oils from your pores.


Try this for a few days straight. Wear the oatmeal mask


for 10 minutes, then wash off. You'll have a nice


glowing complexion right after.





Lemon Juice:


Lemon juice also dries up pimples and kills any bacteria


in the infection.The citric acid also balances your skin's


pH levels to prevent future breakouts.





Honey:


Yes, despite your initial beliefs, honey is FANTASTIC for


skin care. Actually, you may notice on many moisterizers


that honey is an ingredient. Much like the lemon solution


above, honey balances the skins pH levels. Test out this


sticky remedy by dabbing pimples with honey and leaving it


on for 5-10 minutes. You can apply full honey masks to your


face but I prefer the oatmeal masks instead.


They're less messy.

According to this website..

One's diet does not effect their Acne. Greasy foods such as hamburgers and French fries and sugary foods such as soda, candy and chocolate do not play a role in Acne. Although a healthy diet is still recommended for general health.
More than likely no unless you have an actual allergy towards certain grease, oil or sugars...
