If you've tried every possible way to get rid of them but failed miserably, then it's time for you to tweak your diet.
Consumption of various foods like milk products, spicy food, breads and fried foods may cause acne. And to your surprise, the ever-so-delectable, coffee can be one of the reasons behind those suddenly aggravated acne breakouts. Yes, you read that right.
To avoid those unwanted acne breakouts, you just need to alter your coffee intake a bit. Coffee contains chemical properties that boost the stress hormones which tend to increase our calorie intake, triggering acne. Though stress is not the primary cause of acne but it can make it worse.
Having too much coffee and supplementing it with inadequate food may lead to dehydration as the acid levels tend to go up. The more acidic you are, the more dehydrated you get. Excess intake of coffee can flush out essential vitamins and water-soluble minerals from the body, resulting in dehydration which can further trigger acne.
When the natural hydrating process of the body is impeded, it also gives rise to bloating. So, it's always better to limit your coffee intake to prevent those unwanted acne breakouts.
