As with many skin conditions, the best way to get rid of acne is from the inside out. Eating the right foods can clear your skin, helping you look and feel beautiful.

Understanding what causes your acne is the first step in curing it. Many people think that acne is an infection, but the bacterial infection that causes breakouts is usually caused by stress-related hormone changes. Avoiding stress and eating healthy can help your body fight infection easier.

It is easy to learn which foods to eat for clear skin. Foods fall into two basic groups - acid-forming foods and alkaline-forming foods. To clear skin, eat foods that form alkaline, not acid.

Acid-forming foods include milk, yogurt, and cheese; meats and cooked fats like fried foods; and cooked or unrefined carbohydrates, like white breads, pasta and rice. Avoid these foods or eat them in very small portions.

Alkaline-forming foods include fresh vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds. These foods also move through the digestive system quickly, and help the digestive system do its job. Acid-forming foods slow the digestive system, causing toxins to build up in your body. These toxins can cause skin to break out.

Also, avoid sugar and foods high in yeast, like beer.

Drinking plenty of water will help flush toxins from your system and re-hydrate your skin. Oily skin can be a sign that your skin is dehydrated, because when the skin gets dry your pores produce too much oil.

Eat a healthy diet, include large portions of the right foods to clear skin, and you will look and feel much better than you ever thought you could.
