Your hormones might be taking out their rage on your face — here's why.
showed intake of any dairy — including milk, yogurt, and cheese — "regardless of amount or frequency" was linked to higher odds for acne occurrences in individuals seven to 30 years old . Dr. Campbell says she also recommends patients avoid dairy-based powders, like whey protein, for these same reasons.
Rouleau agrees, adding: "The hypothesis is that since the majority of milk in the U.S. comes from pregnant cows , the hormone levels in milk may play a role in excess sebum production, which promotes acne. Since sebum production is influenced by androgens and hormonal mediators , the consumption of milk, cheese, and yogurt may become factors that influence endogenous hormones and mimic the hormones that trigger oil production in the skin to ignite the acne process.
In addition to dairy, "Diet affects adult acne when people eat a high glycemic diet, aka they eat a lot of sugar that is processed," she says. Dr. Jaliman says if she notices a patient is struggling with acne and consumes excess sugar, then she recommends they swap chocolate, baked goods, candies, white pasta, white bread, and other high glycemic, processed foods for a healthier sugar alternative, like fresh fruit.
"Eventually the gut lining becomes leaky and toxins are released into the bloodstream causing inflammation throughout the body," she says. "[This] can result in a flare-up of breakouts due to the shift in gut bacteria, and subsequent inflammation."

Airline stocks take a dive, led by American Airlines 13% plungeAirline stocks took a dive in premarket trading Thursday, as part of a sharp broader stock market selloff, after President Trump announced overnight that travel to Europe was being suspended. Shares of American Airlines Group Inc. plunged 13.5%, United Airlines Holdings Inc. tumbled 9.8% and Delta Air Lines Inc. dropped 9.8%. Meanwhile, futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled 1,140 points, or 4.8%, ahead of the open. "Airline bookings have fallen off a cliff, with cancelations exceeding new bookings as travelers are afraid to fly," analyst Helane Becker at Cowen wrote in a note to clients. "As a result, we expect spring break trips to continue to be canceled, and no summer trips to be booked until the number of new cases peak." Elsewhere, shares of Southwest Airlines Co. slid 8.6% and JetBlue Airways Corp. fell 7.9%. The U.S. Global Jets ETF , which was indicated down about 13%, has shed 37% over the past month through Wednesday.
