Foods That Help Get Rid of Acne

Did you know that certain foods can really help keep acne at bay and get your skin glowing?  Although there is not much research on the subject, some foods have been found to be more favourable for acne skin types than others as they have shown good anti-inflammatory properties. Here are 5 of them:

1. Omega 3-rich foods like fish and flaxseed.

Our modern diets tend to be extra rich in omega 6 fatty acids which have been found to trigger inflammatory responses in our systems. When we incorporate into our diet more omega-3 fatty acids (found in vast amounts in fatty fishes like salmon, mackerel, sardines, sea bass, sea trout etc and in case you are a vegetarian you can try flaxseeds or walnuts), our system can fight inflammation more effectively in order to prevent or decrease future acne problems.
