Which Fruits Are Bad For Acne?

Wednesday, March 09, 2016
Though everyone goes through acne at some stage in their lives, some acne sufferers are embittered by this unwelcome skin condition because of its intensity. Many people have been advocating natural acne cure, with particular regard to lifestyle and diet modifications. To this end, several theories and diets have been formulated to explain the complexion-diet link. What is the recommended diet? Perhaps, you would respond by saying, "one that's rich in fruits and vegetables." But, have you heard that some fruits can aggravate acne? If that seems surprising, just read on to see if it is true!

Fruits are packed with health-giving nutrients like vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, etc. and hence, are universally recommended for optimal health. Citrus fruits contain bioflavonoids and minerals like potassium and magnesium that combat inflammation. And, you know that inflammation is the chief cause for acne breakouts. Vitamin C, an important nutrient of most citrus fruits, is a potent antioxidant, meaning that it keeps your skin safe from free radicals that contribute to inflammation. If you look at Clearade acne treatment, you can understand how it addresses the root cause of the problem to help your skin metabolize oil and overcome inflammation. Fruits contain fiber that aids in digestion and elimination of toxins from your body. They also provide the much-needed hydration for your skin and body.

How then, can fruits trigger or aggravate acne breakouts? Apart from the essential nutrients, many fruits are also packed with natural sugar, which is not good for acne-prone skin. Given that acne is caused by unstable blood sugar levels and chronic inflammation, sugary fruits can raise your blood sugar, which in turn sets off a chain of reactions that favor acne. What happens is that high blood sugar causes a spike in your insulin, which increases cellular inflammation and stimulates androgen production, thereby affecting your skin. Such fruits can actually cause acne for those who are resistant to insulin. This is because the sugar content in these fruits kindles hormonal reactions.


Is there a way out? Yes, you just need to stay away from fruits that are too sugary or syrupy. You may have to avoid fruits like mangoes, bananas, plums, watermelons, pineapples and peaches. Sweetened fruits juices must, of course, be avoided. Those who suffer from insulin resistance will have to find a way to reduce the resistance and eliminate fat through lifestyle changes. Citrus fruits are actually safe, except if you are allergic to them. If you come across allergic symptoms like hives and itching after consuming citrus fruits, it is advisable to confirm the reaction with a doctor and eliminate those fruits from your diet. A few citrus fruits that have a relatively higher content of simple carbohydrates may have a negative effect on acne.

In general, if you want to minimize your acne problem, you must give heed to low alkaline foods, such as carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, apples and grapes. Citrus fruits like oranges, lemons and strawberries contain a particular type of acid that renders an alkalizing effect, i.e. they tend to reduce the acidity in your body. Part of your acne treatment may also involve the intake of acne vitamins or supplements to address any nutrition deficiencies.
I used to be embarrassed about my penis size, and for good reason. I was endowed shorter than the critical 6-inch mark in length, and my girth was under 5 inches. My penis was legitimately short and skinny, being below average in both length and girth. I was embarrassed in the gym locker room and even more embarrassed revealing it to a new girl for the first time. My small penis and how I could deal with it consumed a lot of my time, which led to a lot of research, and ultimately I discovered natural penis enlargement -- getting longer and thicker using just my hands. It worked and I went from below average to very well hung. Here are the top 5 things I have found about having a big penis.

1. I don't have to bring a bathing suit to shower in the gym anymore! Obviously the best thing about natural penis enlargement to me is that it made my erect penis size both longer and thicker, and when it comes to satisfying women, it's the erect size that matters. However, one "fringe benefit," so to speak, that I found was that I also made proportional gains in my flaccid size. When my flaccid penis was short and skinny, I didn't dare expose it in the gym locker room. Those guys can be brutal with their teasing, especially the ones who drop their towels to reveal giant pieces of meat swinging back and forth like pendulums! Now that I'm one of those guys, I certainly don't have to worry about covering up my size anymore!

2. I can talk dirty during sex without feeling silly. Talking dirty is not easy when you have a small penis. Especially considering that the best dirty talk, I have now found, involves telling a girl in very crude dialogue what you are going to do to her with your big, thick penis. It just isn't the same when you're wielding a little pea-shooter and you start grunting about how you're going to "fill her up" and "make it hurt" -- you're more likely to make her laugh than anything else! Now that I'm big, however, nothing is out of bounds when it comes to what comes out of my mouth during sex!

3. Dirty cell phone pictures during the day! I admit, I'm the kind of guy who sometimes likes to sneak into the bathroom at work and take a "dirty shot" to send to whoever my current squeeze(s) is/are! However, the last thing I want is to have her show it to her girlfriends -- so they can have a good laugh! Now, when I send those pictures, I know that if she's showing them to other girls, their jaws will be dropped too far for them to laugh!

4. No first time nervousness. I used to get nervous as all get-out when having sex with a new partner for the first time, and the number one reason is because I was embarrassed about my penis being small and having to reveal it for the first time. It even affected my ability to achieve and maintain an erection. Now, I am the opposite of nervous. I'm actually excited for that moment because I know I get to really show off!

5. Break-ups are much easier! When I was small, I used to hate breaking up with girls because during the ensuing fall out, the girl would frequently take a cheap shot about my small penis. Talk about a self-esteem killer! Now when I break up with a girl, there are a million things she can say about me, but not one of them involves me being insufficient where it matters!
