Dairy Can Irritate Acne
According to several studies, over-consuming dairy can harm your skin. A scientific review of 58 studies concluded that dairy increases acne. Professor Nicholas Lowe, a dermatologist in London, told Daily Mail that dairy elevates hormones in the body that flare up acne.
Some researchers believe that hormone-treated cattle produce dairy that worsens acne. Others suggest that the high amount of carbohydrates in milk produces this effect. Either way, not all milk has the same effect. In some studies, drinking skim milk resulted in more severe acne.
