Your diet is a main cause for acne. If you take a little care on diet you can avoid the possibility to a great extend. Here I am explaining the foods that cause acne on cheeks.
#1 Shrimp
Personally I like shrimp a lot. But shrimp and most shell fishes like, crab are a main reason for acne. Shellfish is another source of iodine, which as you know now can cause acne flare-ups. Omega 3 rich fish, such as salmon, trout and halibut, seem to actually improve skin issues so consider eating more of these sources of fish instead of shellfish.
#2 Dairy products
Diary products are found to be causing acne, in recent studies. Milk products causes insulin spikes in our blood and which in turn causes acne. You can take almond milk, rice milk, coconut milk, or hemp milk instead of cow’s milk if you want.
#3 Bacon
According to Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, the average American, who reportedly eats more than 18 pounds of bacon each year. So we can say how much we are addicted to bacon. But as per new studies the high levels of ‘sulfates’, ‘nitrates’ and ‘sodium’ found in bacon causes inflammation that can damage skin over time.
